Hiya There ,
Phew! I have been missing for a long time ,haven't I!! Not that the two people who actually read my blog are going to miss me much.:-).I really don't have a legit excuse.It's just plain ol boring day job and the stress associated therewith.By the time I get home,I am plain exhausted.BUT,to give myself credit ,I do make it a point of visiting other people's blogs to lap up all the crafty goodness... so much so that I spend more time looking at other people's projects than doing something of my own.
Anyhow,this weekend I finally motivated myself to do SOMETHING.Some days back Amy at Mod Podge Rocks featured a project by Selliz.She makes altered compact mirrors and all of them are mighty cute.Go check out Selliz's site here and you will find true inspiration.
I wanted to try making one immediately.Mine is nowhere close to hers in the detailing and gorgeousness but I still like mine too..:-)
I started out with an old battered compact mirror for the experiment.
A little bit of Mod Podge and a collection of my blingy stash and here it what looks like now..Pretty isn't it?
Sorry for the bad picture quality.This was late at night so no proper light.
I am still in two minds about covering the whole lid up because of the visible scratches on the surface but for now this will do.
Cheers!
