Case #2: Bathroom Mirror Mishap

"Hi design detectives! My clumsy husband was hanging shelving on his side of the bathroom and somehow knocked the mirror right off the wall. I feel like this is a perfect time for something new! I hated the old one anyways. He's a man's man and wants something that shows it. Any Ideas?"

Hey Sandy, 

I think we all know that the Model A Ford is the epitome of manliness. I found an old radiator shell at a flea market that I knew was  good buy! 

With  little bit of retouching, we'll be able to replace the old broken mirror with a unique manly one that will have all his friends jealous.

First, we're going to scour old car part stores to try to find a "Ford" badge and a polished radiator cap to clean things up.Then we need to get  mirror cut to fit the radiator.

Now that we have our accent pieces, its time to paint the frame. We decided to use a Amy Howard High Performance Furniture Lacquer in Brisson Red . All that's left is to adhere the badge and radiator cap, as well as get the mirror fitted and we're done.

What do you think?
