I do not like gold. I am more of a silver gal. Sorry fans of gold! When we moved into our home three years ago, the mirror in my master bathroom was gold. I knew immediately that I wanted to change it. It was just a matter of when I would change it. I purchased some new paint weeks ago. I left it sitting on the bathroom sink for a month...or so. Finally, I asked my husband to drag that old gold mirror outside under our big oak tree. I scrubbed it clean. I hate to admit out loud that it has collected lots of dust and toothpaste! Next, I taped it up with blue painters tape. Maybe a smarter person than myself would have removed the mirror but I was about ease. Then I spray painted it. Mediterranean Blue. Three coats. I love it! It is like walking into spring every time I turn the bathroom light on. The husband on the other hand, still is not sure if he likes it or not. Definitely an improvement over the old gold mirror. I can live with this one for a while longer!
