Frosted mirror decor

I'm planning a Roaring 20s party for my upcoming birthday and I'm making most of the decorations. When cleaning out the attic recently, my husband found this really old door mirror. He was ready to throw it out but I saw potential! I didn't take a before picture because it was just.. Ew..and I wanted to clean it right away. Stick on letters are best, but since I didn't have any I just made my own letters out of construction paper and taped them down.

I sprayed frosted glass spray then removed the letters after it dried.

Some of the spray went under the paper so I used nail polish remover to wipe the letter spaces clean.

Next I covered the mirror with paper to spray the frame black.

I'm very happy with how it turned out. Since we had all supplies on hand we didn't spend a dime and got a great decoration for the party!

DIY Halloween Costumes- Isabela from Encanto

I found a ton of cute lavender dresses a’la Isabela from Encanto. I started with tulle to give the princess feel, and also included more comfortable options. You can get away with just the flower behind your ear, but I think the added ones throughout the hair are more Isabela. I added two options, but Shein does have many options for hair flowers. Oh and use my code at Shein for 10% off your order! The first 3 dresses are Shein sizes 2-12. This first dress definitely will make you feel like a princess! These shoes are the most accurate to the cosplay as well. Tulle Dress Mary Jane Ballet Flats Large Flower hair clips Small Flower hair clips Dress option 2 is more casual and looks so comfy. You could wear this more often after displaying. As it’s more casual, I also added more casual flats.

How to turn an in wall ironing board into shelving

My bedroom has had an in wall ironing board since I got this house. I hated it. It is directly behind the bedroom door so if you take the board out, noone can get in or out of the room. My husband irons his work shirts in the morning, but never used that board. We have a full sized ironing board by the laundry room. If he used the wall board I would have burn marks from running into a hot iron while trying to do my makeup. It's frustrated me that it was just wasted space. It's right next to our dresser and a convenient place to store makeup and hair products. I asked my hubby for shelving to clear up space on the dresser. To remove the board, he removed the screws from the bar then pulled the bar out of the wall. He used wood filler to patch the holes from the bar. In retrospect he wishes he'd just sawed the bar off instead. He painted the inside and cut shelves to fit. For the background we used scrapbook paper. I was not willi...
