Sometimes it's hard being me.

No really it is. Especially when I'm sick and feel like I've been beaten up. Luckily, I married a great guy. One who took a half sick day so I could sleep for 2 hours. In silence. Because he bundled up the girls and took them to the playground. It was heaven. And now I feel MUCH improved. In fact I feel so good I finished my latest project while he made ribs, baked potatoes and broccoli for dinner. Yum-O!

And without further ado, my loverly new coat rack mirror.

I picked up at the mirror at the Goodwill on Monday for $40 bucks, which is a little more than I wanted to pay but it was the perfect size and all. It was an ugly orange-y wood when I got it, so I sanded it down, filled a couple little holes and sprayed it with Rust-O-lem in Heirloom White. Added some hardware from Home Depot for $2.50 each. And then distressed the edges just a bit.
And this is where it'll hang as soon as I borrow my FIL stud finder.


So maybe it's not so hard being me...
