You Will Need (4 things)

  • Painter's Tape
  • Gold leaf Paint
  • Paint brush
  • Mirror

Steps (2 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Tape off the part of the frame you want to paint. I marked it off diagonally for a little bit of a geometric look. Within that area, tape off all the places the mirror meets the frame.

  2. 2

    Paint the frame. I only needed one coat of paint to get the look I desired. Let it dry before peeling off the tape. I used a sharp knife to scrape off some of the paint that had bled through.
