A friend of a friend gave me this mirror for free. I wasn't happy with the gold. I was needing a new foyer mirror since I gave my daughter the last one. It was small enough that it wouldn't take too much time to silver leaf it.
I used post it notes so the glue wouldn't get under the frame.
I used the spray adhesive I had on hand. I would spray the area and then wait about 20 seconds before applying the silver leaf.
Sorry for the blurry picture.
I used only 8 of the 18 sheets of silver leaf out of this package.
Notice that I didn't redo the base of the mirror. You would never see it.
