I got frame on a mirror at Dollar Tree. The mirror was already falling out of it when I bought it so it was easy to get that out ;). I am such a dork. The entire time I am standing in line I am thinking- the cashier is going to say to me "You realize this is broken right?" and how I couldn't wait to see her face when I say I like broken mirrors. It was such a let down... she didn't say anything about the broken mirror to me! Seriously, it took the wind right out of my sails! I then spray painted the frame.
I cut the word "LOVE" out with my Gypsy Wanderings cartridge then set the paper down on the burlap and used a foam brush to paint the burlap with some paint I had kicking around that somewhat matched the spray paint. It matched MUCH better before I used it. Then you just hot glue the back on and you are good to go!

Great Job! You could change it up to say "Luck" too for St Pats. I love Dollar Store deals, broken and all. Holly :-)
