age of adz


When I die, when I die
I'll rot
But when I live, when I live
I'll give it all I've got

revamping an antique mirror

over the summer i purchased a mirror from salvage chic for $35. it had originally belonged to a bureau but no longer so i was decided it would hang on my wall. it needed a little sprucing up so i sanded and painted it.

the color i chose to paint the trim of the mirror was antique beige


and i decided to add a hint of gold for a vintage inspired look

with a little help from my dad i was able to hang it up in the perfect spot. if you're looking to hang up a heavy mirror or picture just make sure you get the appropriate hardware. all you need to check is that the hardware holds the weight you're looking to hold up. i think we chose two 50 pound hangers... which was more than enough.






   another antique mirror purchased for $20

always trying to fall asleep to make my way out

you all know it's been a really nice day. and i've thoroughly enjoyed it. me and bj lounged around outside most of the day. i decided to finish a painting project that i've been avoiding working on for close to a year....here it is.




i used a stencil on the leaf part...was fun..a little blotchy but i don't care.
