Easily transformed wood mirror makeover with pretty floral decor transfers! 

Hello friends!

I hope you had an amazing weekend! We had a wedding in the family. Love family time…and weddings!
Today I’m sharing another one from this haul for our Trash to Treasure goodies. Don’t forget to scroll down and see my friends’ makeovers too!

The wood mirror below…

A group of wooden furniture and decor items, including a wood mirror makeover, nested tables, a small shelf with heart cutouts, a framed print, and two wooden boxes, displayed on a porch with BEFORE text at the bottom. Pink check marks highlight three items.

Only 2 more from this haul and it’s time for some more shopping. I’m looking forward to doing those nesting tables! Still have no clue yet but it’ll come to me. ha!

Here’s how it started…

A rectangular wood mirror makeover rests against a white paneled wall. The mirror reflects wicker dining chairs and part of a table on a blue-patterned rug. The word BEFORE is overlaid in the bottom left corner.

And here’s how it looks now…

A wood mirror makeover features pink floral decals on a rectangular frame, hanging above a white dresser topped with a vase of flowers, stacked books, and a decorative sphere. The mirror reflects a cozy living room scene.

I started by sanding the wood just lightly (it had a sheen), then cleaning it well with TSP Alternative cleaner.
Then I taped up the mirror to paint the wood.

A rectangular wood mirror makeover, framed with green painter’s tape, reflects an upside-down American flag on a brick wall, with a fluorescent light and part of a gray door visible below.

I used one of my favorite whites…Victorian Lace.

I did about 3 coats to get full coverage on this one.

Once that was dry, I pulled out this pretty new transfer (it’s in my shop!) to add to each corner.

Two floral decals featuring pink flowers and green leaves are placed on a white marble surface beside a wood mirror makeover with a fresh white frame. The scene is bright and neat, with part of a logo visible in the corner.

MATERIALS LIST

I decided to let it overlap onto the mirror and around the sides.

I used my new transfer tool to transfer it. I really like using it better than the wood stick that comes in the package. (these are in my shop too)

A little topcoat action and done! The transferred section on the mirror is not sealed with the top coat. I decided to not even attempt that. The transfer should be good to go as long as it’s not sprayed and rubbed hard with cleaner. You can easily clean around it!

But isn’t it pretty how it flows onto the mirror?

The word Nancy is written in elegant, flowing black script, reminiscent of Chalk Style Paint For Furniture, with a heart shape used to form the dot above the letter i. The background is plain white.

  8. I love that you wrapped the transfer to the mirror and around the side of the frame. That made such a difference.
