How to quickly update an MCM Coppercraft Mirror In Aqua
Remember the ever so popular Coppercraft Guild Plastic Wall Art from the '70s? Recently during a trip to Goodwill, I found a mirror for under $5. I love all the different patterns and textures and knew, painted a bright color, all those details would pop. In less than a half-hour, I updated this Mid-Century Modern Coppercraft Mirror in aqua and it looks so pretty!
This is what the mirror used to look like...
Here's a close up of all that lovely texture that just shines now after just a few light coats of Aqua spray paint.
After the final coat dried I protected it with two coats of Rustoleum Painter's Touch Ultra Cover Clear Coat.
I don't use spray paint often but when I do, this is one of my favorite go-to colors. Last summer I painted a Bistro Set in this color and it sold very quickly.
I think it looks so fresh and modern and would look great in any room.
The turquoise whitewashed tray is also a plastic thrift store find that I brought back to life last year. You can catch that makeover here at Plastic Tray Refresh.
If you liked this MCM Coppercraft Mirror Refresh, share it with a friend and/or save it on Pinterest.
You'll find this project linked up at these fabulous parties.

Thanks for joining me for another edition of Frugal Decor Tuesday. Which do you prefer, the mirror before or after?
Before I end this post, did you catch the Between The Lines series last Tuesday? I was one of the lucky bloggers to be featured in the first edition. If you missed it, you can catch that post HERE.
Between The Lines is a new blog series that takes a peek into the lives of bloggers over the age of 50. Every Tuesday for the next nine weeks, a group of bloggers will be interviewed and featured by Katherine at Katherine's Corner.
You can catch Week Two of this series HERE. For those of us "seasoned" bloggers, it's a great way to meet other bloggers in the Nifty Fifty Club!
