Bathroom Mirror Makeover


This was the bathroom mirror in our new home.

Cute and definitely my style, but in need of an update.


I knew that my trusty can of Krylon Fusion black spray paint would do the trick!

A few reasons why I love Krylon Fusion so much:

-- It sticks to everything. This is good when you have a house full of hand-me-downs with who-knows-what-kind-of-finish on them.
-- It dries quickly. I'm an impatient do-it-your-self-er. When I'm in the mood to do a project, I  want it done now.  Or yesterday. Which ever comes first.
-- The nozzle is very comfortable and doesn't hurt my fingers. I've spray painted some large pieces and I've used other paint at times. I know what I'm talking about here.:-)

Black is my accent color throughout the house, so I keep a can or two of black Krylon Fusion around for those inevitable painting emergencies. It never fails to come in handy.

And here she is... showing off  her new black coat!

Very, very nice. I love all your reasons for liking this stuff and I like that you feel you need to keep it on hand for those inevitable painting emergencies. ;)

That made me chuckle...

Once you start painting old items to renew them it sure does open up a whole new world to you!! I have black around too. I love how your mirror came out!!
