Something that we've been wanting to pick up for A Frock Affair are some mirrors to hang around our venue. So we decided to head down to Reverse Garbage and see what finds there were to be found. For those who aren't familiar with Reverse Garbage, RG is a hoarder/ treasure-hunter's paradise - filled with all sorts of weird and wonderful bits and pieces. If you live in Brisbane, it really is worth taking the time to check out!
On this visit we were in luck! We were able to pick up three great mirrors for less than $2.00 each....
...as well as some great mosaic tiles for under $10 - perfect for framing...
...then headed home for a bit of crafting!
After giving everything a good clean, we used some tape to cover up the sharp edges. (yes, that's electrical tape - nothin fancy around here!)
Followed by some glueing.
After that, all that was left was to wait for the glue to dry (just long enough for a coffee break) and they were finished! Three great looking mirrors for less than $20.
ta-da!
