Dad's Box: Mirror, Mirror...


welcomehomeminis

This gilt pop-metal mirror taught me an important lesson: you can't easily saw through pop-metal. I busted a mitre-saw blade and a couple of Dremel saw blades of various types trying to saw off a half an inch from the left (back of the roombox) edge, because it was just an eense too large to fit the side wall of this shadowbox.

I taught it a lesson: I'm stubborn. In the end, I won, and it fits. We added thread and a bit of cotton batting for over-the-top spiderwebs, and of course, we took the black Sharpie to it to darken the gilding somewhat.
