Mercury glass projects

It's been a while since I have entered anything in my blog due to the fact that I was busy painting, preparing my daughter's bridal shower and then the wedding and on vacation. But I am back and getting the house back in order after having guests and lots of parties.

Today's project is from Seventh house on the left, http://7thhouseontheleft.com/2011/06/diy-looking-glass/ to create Mercury glass votives. I am going to see if I can do it. So here is what you need. Krylon " looking glass spray paint, black & gold glossy enamel paint, glass cleaner, water bottle, paint brushes and sponge scraper.








I have to go out ot buy the products and will probably go to either Rona, Reno or Home Depot and Omer Deserres. I will post the progress and end results when done.








I also love this antique mirror makeover via http://houseandhome.com/tv/segment/diy-decorative-mirrors

The Randon things I collect on Tresorcache101

My blog name is called Tresorcache101. I liked the name Tresor cache from the first time I heard it. It sounded like a diamond in the rough. I like to find little treasures even at the curb. I picked that name when I started this blog way back when. Since Tresor cache was already taken in Google, I added the 101 at the end.  It is the place where I document stories about the items given to me by my Family and Friends either to keep or resale. Some of the items I are found at the curb or  at 2nd Hand Stores, Flea Markets.  Most of the photographs are mine with the exception of the occasional picture ideas for reference of what could be done with the item to upcycle.  Google " bpagani@poshmark.ca" and click on images you will be directed to my Poshmark closet where I sell. I post items on Instagram under randomthingsicollect. Please ask any question you have regarding any of my items.  Use my referral code "bpagani" to receive a $15 discount off your first purchas...
