Sometimes just a few touches can make a big change

Look how different the “painted leaves” on the left side make this mirror look

If turquoise isn’t your thing but you love the mirror, paint it!

This fish pot used to be totally faded out with no color at all, it needed a little facelift

Just a little turquoise and blue and it looks brand new

This carved wood mirror in the master used to be plain like the one below

Ahh, the magic of paint!

In case you missed the Picmonkey painting tip on Colorful Doors, you can upload a photo to Picmonkey and open the effects tab [the magic wand.]  Scroll down to the draw effect.  There you can pick your color and your paint brush size and experiment with different colors right on your computer.  Very handy!
