New Hall Tree Turned Old!

Yup, this is a piece of furniture that most people would LOVE just as it is!  But, this is going in Heidi's house and she likes things to look old.  So, here is the before of this Pier 1 Hall Tree...
 And after it's been aged to perfection!
 Heidi wanted the mirror to look old too, so I googled "Acid Mirror" just to see what I could find.  What do you know but another blogger from St. George, Utah  has some amazing mirrors she's done and instructions on how to do them!  Thanks Mandy @ Vintage Revivals! She's even been on the Nate Berkus Show with her mirrors!  You go girl!



 After I took the above pictures I decided to make the hooks look "rusty".  I think it's the perfect final touch!

    Love it- aged to perfection!! I have done the aged mirror look on quite a few things- I didn't have the acid Mandy talked about but did have Liquid Plumber in the house and that works perfect!! Good job!!

    This is great! I was afraid of what the 'after' was going to look like, but you paid careful attention to every detail and this hall tree is beautiful!
