Bathroom Mirror

Without getting into too much detail about the foreclosed home my wife and I purchased last year, let me just say that there were many issues that came up with the house before we finally decided to go for it. I'm happy to say that most of the unknown issues ended up having "best case scenario" resolutions, but it was a stressful time nonetheless.

One of the smaller, yet extremely frustrating, issues that we experienced was that even after we were under contract to buy the home (meaning that nobody else could purchase the home unless we decided to drop out), every time we went to visit the house, something else was missing!

One time it was the shower head in the master bathroom. The next time, it was the stove in the kitchen! The next time it was the mirror over the sink in the half bath!! The only people who had keys to the house at this point were our realtor and the property management company, and the property management company said there was no way they could tell who had been in the house because they used the same exact key for every property all over the city!! Grrr.

...this is raising my blood pressure. I need to move on...

Here is the little project that my wife did to resolve the issue of not having a mirror in the half bath downstairs. She found this unique little mirror at a craft store in town:

The only problem with it is that my wife hates gold...anything. So we took off the back and removed the mirror. Then we spray painted it a glossy black, let it dry and put the mirror back in. Now it hangs proudly in the previously unoccupied space in our half bathroom.

Much better than the vacancy that previously adorned that wall over the sink. :)
