Charity Shop Find …

On Saturday I nipped up the road to have a browse in the two charity shops we have …
Charity Shop MirrorI found this mirror measuring 20ins x 20ins for £2.95 which was duly bagged, its condition is a little rough but with the wide frame it give me plenty of scope to embellishment.  On one of my stays with Marc he enthralled and inspired me with a tale of a set of mirrors he made for a restaurant that were wonderful confections of sprayed sea shells, pearls and “diamonds” mermaids and divers ……. so perhaps this will be the start of my own version …..
OBJECT OF DESIRE ………
Kitsh charity shop mirror…… And this is the mirror I left behind and will probably regret forever not buying …. but at £10 …. it was a bit too much to buy on a whim ….. if had it been a fiver I would have had it ……..
