Novice- the base color is some deep turquoise that I had left over from another project. ( I don't remember the brand- but it was designed for a kids room, so it could be washed with soap and water.) Then I went over that with some watered down "sweet chocolate" acrylic paint, and wiped some of that off the raised areas, but- that turned out too dark, so I put a bit of water in the nearly empty turquoise paint can, and made a "wash" that I painted over the entire thing. I put clear sealer over the whole thing, since the paint is interior paint. It will be interesting to see how this piece weathers. It still has it's original dark stain under the paint, so even if it gets peely or chippy, it should look kind of cool. Kathy

Or, hit Target, Walmart, TJMaxx, whatever and get a mirror that has a frame SHAPE you like but a color you don't, then get some masking tape and a can of white spray paint. Cover the mirror itself with some newspaper and tape it down neatly around the edges. Apply spray paint. I've sometimes seen the mirror style you describe at unfinished furniture stores, too, which would also need painting. (The mirror, not the store. ;-)) I'm sure you must have seen this one at Target.com, but I thought I'd post it anyway. I don't know if it's more than you want to spend (is "hundreds" meaning a cap of $100? $300?) but here's a pretty and somewhat fancier mirror from Sagehill Designs (do some more shopping around on that one if you like it, you might find it lower but I just grabbed it off Google Product Search). Also, if you have a Bombay Company store nearby, look there. They're going out of business so everything's on sale, and they may have something that's just the right shape but simply wrong color.

Google search didn't turn up anything at all. I just know who carries what type of decor. I am sure there are many I don't know about. I have four 16"x16" framed mirrors (in mirrored frames) in my breakfast area that I got from Home Goods and I could probably replace the inner mirror with a print. I dont' recall seeing a mirrored "frame" as large as 24" at Home Goods but they sell so fast I could easily have missed it. Bee could be right so do keep looking. Also check Two's Company website. I will also look in several TODL cat's that I have and let you know if I find anything. Here is a link that might be useful: Two's Company

Thank you both for the compliments. It took me a while to get up the nerve to tackle it. Matching the paint color turned out to be the hardest part.
