Have you ever had one of those interior decor epiphanies after looking at same design element for the 6205th time? Recently I noticed all the potential hair images I had been collecting years ago and realized that with Pinterest, these dusty & outdated tearsheets were obsolete. What I really needed was a better way to store my growing collection of stylish hair accessories from Dollsville.
After doing a quick strength test using a mighty magnet, my plan to re-purpose the interior side of the metal medicine cabinet door materialized. This 5 minute makeover requires just 2 (that’s it, 2!) household items: 1 sheet of quality wrapping paper & spray adhesive. It could probably be done with double stick tape.
step 1 – clean the metal side of the mirror thoroughly
step 2 – using a low tack spray adhesive cover the entire mirror back
step 3 – gingerly apply the decorative paper to the sprayed area
step 4 – smooth w/ burnisher or ruler
step 5 – using an x-acto knife or blade trim excess paper away from the edge
step 6 – admire your handy work
If giant sparkly floral headpeices aren’t your thing, then add mini magnetic hooks to hang bracelets and delicate necklaces that get knotted in the jewelry drawer.
xxoo.

I tend not to leave a leave a response, however after reading a bunch
of responses on mini medicine cabinet makeover. I do have 2 questions for you if you tend not
to mind. Is it only me or do some of the responses come across like they are left by brain dead individuals?
😛 And, if you are writing on other social sites, I’d like to keep up with you.
Could you post a list of every one of all your social pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
