One of the hardest things to photograph lol
trying not to get anything else in there!!
A cheap plastic framed mirror bought from a discount shop turned into something lovely.
I gesso'd the frame first and stippled it, then sprinkled some micro beads onto it and left to dry.
Using 3D gel as my glue added all my embellishments which are mainly metal and plastic
apart from the largest rose flower which is meant for a wedding cake, and like an art foam!!
i gesso'd it black and glued it on with the others, by the time it has had several layers of paint on it its quite robust, it it still not solid but quite firm.
i then went over with a sponge and paint brush gently added different colours of metallic paint, gradually building up the colours until i was happy with the result.
i did have a heart shaped bit of paper covering the mirror while i was working but i still managed to get splatters on the mirror lol needs a good clean!
and ignore the stained roof tile, i take my photos at work as it is the best light but trying to get a good photo of a mirror without seeing other things you don't want to see it a mission lol
