Friday Favorite: Thrift store find

So, I popped into my local thrift store...one that usually has crap but since I had an extra 15 minutes before my lunch hour was up and it was next door, I figured what the hey. And I am glad I did.

Like shopping at any thrift store, mostly the aisles were filled with piles of ugly wicker baskets, bins of bras (yuck), and a lots of cheap bookcases and toys...but there was a gem nestled among the stacks of orangey oak picture frames...

ooooo aaaaahhh.
A Fancy-ish mirror! and for only 5 buckaroos.  Fancy & ornate does not really go in our house...but..I think I can make some changes to the mirror to make it less golden-fancy and more us.
So what should do I do with it?

Well, I thought about it.
Then I poured myself a glass of wine and thought about it some more.

thanks for the yummy wine Mom!
 I think it will get a fun paint job, and go in my walk-in-closet.  A preview post of our walk in closets is coming next week!

Any good finds at your thrift stores this week? Does yours have bins of old lady bras too?
What color would you paint the mirror? Or would you leave the gold?
