Tweakin' a treasure!

Sometimes a garage sale find needs a little fine-tuning to fit into your decor. Take this rustic mirror I stole bought for only $2.00.

I liked the frame (barn wood is always good for me) but the shape was a little too cathedral for my taste.


So I turned the whole thing upside down...


...and added a set of deer horns that some dear had donated to my collection!



His distant cousin, a real turkey, volunteered the feather that hides a screw.

Hop over to Jen's Sanctuary Arts at Home Blog! She's hostessing her monthly make-over party today! The ideas at her place just keep on coming!
