But the $498 price tag on the Anthro mirror (now on sale for $299) made that one a little unrealistic for me personally :) So here's my version thanks to this tutorial!!
{Btw, it's seriously difficult to take a good picture of a mirror. So these are the best I could do!}
Nick's a crafter too! Actually, he just had to help me get all the nails off my antique mirror.
Maggie showing off her mirror before we started! Sadly, this mirror was cracked a little while later :( We've since replaced the mirror part, but it still didn't respond quite right to the oven cleaner. But her frame looks fab, whether she ends up putting a mirror in the middle or not!!
Things got messy!
*If anyone tries this, be sure and cover all surface areas!! It just happens that I'm going to paint our table and chairs anyway, so it didn't matter too much if a little nastiness got on our table.
Here's Maggie ModPodging away! Loved her fabric!!
TA DA!!! :)
I also finished my yarn wreath to put on our front door and show some team spirit! War Eagle!!! I know I didn't go to Auburn, but Nick's love for the Tigers has majorly rubbed off on me, and I get so pumped every football season now. I still love my Herd, but the Tigers have grown on me too :)
Here's my finished wreath:
Now I have some new projects I'm obsessed with finishing :) Here's a few of them:
L.O.V.E. this fall wreath!!! {the whole mantel really}

It was under the button that says "Tutorials" or sometimes says "Refashions". Be sure and post if you make those shoes! :)
