A Matching Mirror...

A few months ago I painted this table and sold it on CraigsList:
The buyer recently bought this $3.00 mirror and asked me to paint it to match the table:
I painted it in my homemade chalk paint and then added the stripes:
I trimmed the edges in gold:
Here is the finished mirror - a perfect compliment to the table!
