Half bath mirror frame

Yesterday I was scrolling through my pictures and I saw ALOT of pictures I took that I planned on writing a post about.

Oopsy Daisy!

So right now while I sit here and watch the Oscars being awarded I will get some of the pictures together for you.

These pictures that I am about to show you all are over a year over due!

I know when it was because I finished this project right before we started potty training Little Romeo.

Which also means that we have been diaper free in the household for over a year!

Oh what a blessing diaper free can be. Almost as refreshing as debt free. :)

This time around I threw a Potty Party for little Romeo. Where I decorated with Yellow streamers and balloons. Gave Romeo as much Kool-aid as his little heart desired and let him pick out which big boy underwear he wanted to wear.

Yes, people we go straight to big boy underoos in this house. No pull ups, not even at night!

I am CRAZY that way. 

Romeo was completely potty trained in half a day! Wild Man being the stubborn first born that he is...took 3 days.

But after all the festivities, we sat Romeo on the potty with toys that he loves around him, waiting for him to do the deed for the first time.

Here is Wild Man trying to explain to him how going on the big boy potty works.


Then here is is playing on his Mobi go waiting until he is an official big boy.



Anyways, I thought I took a before pictures of the bathroom. But I just can't find one.

So here is how it started. On my dining room table.


Then I painted it.


Must have been taking down my Christmas decorations at the time...

Here it is all glued up!


I also painted the cabinet...again sorry no before picture.


I added silver hardware. There wasn't any hardware before.



I don't think the cabinet was dusty. I think it was just how the pictured turned out. But then again it was a year ago...I can't really remember if it was really dusty or not.

If you want a real step by step tutorial on how to frame your own boring mirror. I made one a while back. Click here to see it.

Hey Katie! I am a secret blog reader of yours - I forget how I found you - pinterest perhaps? Anyhow - today I am finally attempting my own mirror framing, and I was looking back at your first tutorial. I was wondering with this more recent one that you did whether you have any thoughts on which method of painting was easier/that you liked best?

I bought the rustoleum satin black spray paint to use, but Lowes here doesn't carry matching rustoleum in a can, so I'm debating how to touch up any caulking spots at the end. How did you do it? Did you have matching spray paint and can paint? Or did you just use a can?

Thanks!! :) - Callie

The philips led light bulbs for home are also just as energy efficient as the standard white colors. LED lighting gives out vivid, pure, and bright light spectrum. The LED white lights work easier on your eyes and are closer to the color of daylight. LED lights are also waterproof and can handle other weather such as cold and heat. LEDs don't generate any RF wavelengths that cause radio interference, or UV (ultraviolet light), unless specified as a UV diode, or IR (infrared), which in turn doesn't attract any insects or bugs. The LED lighting saves money on the cost of bulb replacement and labor costs for replacement. After one year these LED light bulbs pay for themselves.
