I came across this mirror when dropping off some items at a local thrift shop.\u00a0 It was a little worse for wear; some chips in the frame and scratches on the mirror rendered it all but useless. As is often the case, I wanted to resurrect it to its former glory, or perhaps better still, create an enhanced version of its previous self.<\/p>\n

Keeping with the “Skeleton and Skull<\/span><\/strong><\/em>” theme that has evolved over the years for our haunted house, I rummaged through the Halloween storage boxes and came up with an accouterment of sinister, hair-raising decorations.<\/p>\n

I then hot glued them to the mirror and frame, and spray-painted the entire display in black.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Once it was dry, I added pearls dangling from the skeleton necks, small silver keys to the frame, a silver pocket watch, crystal padlock and a sparkly eye-piece to one socket of the skull.<\/p>\n

The effect is creepy ….. Perfect for our All Hallows Eve dining room meal!<\/p>\n
