Sunburst mirror and lamps redo

I've been on the hunt for the perfect mirror to go about our bed in the new house.  I scour homegoods each and every week with Sophia while Olivia is at school.  They must think I'm weird to come in each week on the same day and time...little do they know I'm homeless and have no place to go while Olivia is at school.  There will be an updated post on that shortly.

So I found this sad guy.

 

It was on clearance because of all the dents and scratches and was the perfect size.  I would have loved it in another room as is (minus all the wear) but I thought it would be perfect for our bedroom with a little update. 

I sprayed a few coats before I realized that I probably should have used a primer first.  So after a quick trip to the hardware store and about 10 coats later...I had this!

Pretty...right!?!? 

I can't wait to actually have walls in a house to hang it on...

And for the lamps...I had a set of old ones that I figured would also look good painted white.  I'd really like clear glass looking ones for our bedroom...but figured this might due the trick until we can upgrade. 

Here they were before...nothing special but perfectly working.

And here they are now with two thin coats of primer and around 10 coats of gloss white.  I know...10 coats seems crazy but I made the mistake of not priming first on these as well so I had to keep covering them until they were finally covered.  Live and learn...right!?!?

And for any of you that might have noticed all that over spray...  Yeah...my dad did too and has officially banned me from spraying in his barn unsupervised.  For the record...I asked him if he wanted me to cover everything and he said that he didn't think the over spray would be that bad.  Oppsie.  This leads me to think about what my future grass will look like when I'm in project mode.  Dave will be less than pleased I'm sure.
