Vintage Barbola mirror restored!

 Thanks to Maggie for her suggestion of replacing the convex glass on this boot sale find with another vintage mirror! I did just that with a skanky mirror from a car boot sale for £1 and it looks great!


I've just returned home from Yorkshire and I need to get cracking on the vintage thirties dressing table! But it's sooo hot! It wasn't like this oop north!
 I'm delighted to be linking up to the awesome Faith Hope and Charity Shoppings tah dah tuesday! (and even more delighted I figured out how to do it!)

      I know! There's a similar one on ebay for £125! The mirror in this was broken so I got it for £2 so my total spend was £3! I love it!
