FINIAL MIRROR-PART 5



In case you don't remember, here is the before.....

 
Remember that my original idea was to fill in both scrolled areas, top and bottom with the glass mosaics.  Once I completed the top, I felt that this was enough.
 
 The big reveal today--drum roll--here is the mirror frame without the mirror.
 




I think this will be a great statement piece to place in the foyer as you walk in the door.


Now I realized that the off white foyer table just doesn't match the mirror.  I was going to paint a bedside table black to place underneath the mirror.  I need something taller.  I still have one vintage  rod iron sewing base in the garage.  If it was painted a high gloss black, I could get a thick piece of glass cut to place on top of the base.  I believe the glass would mimic the mirror glass tiles in the mirror.


This was not a project for the weak or weary..  I think I spent about 23 hours on it to complete it. 

Anyway, I am thrilled with the results.
