It's really pretty simple! You
break a mirror and use those pieces in a concrete design. And no, it's not bad
luck. Here's the story:
Once in awhile when I find the right
piece of furniture I enjoy
re-purposing it. This time
I received a tall display cabinet from my mother-in-law. I wish I had a
photo of it to show you, but it really doesn't matter anymore. I spent a
good day sawing, reshaping, sanding and putting on its first coat of paint.
This piece had several glass shelves with a mirror backing. A few
mornings later my husband wanted to get at something in the barn and asked if
we could move it outside for the day. So we did and there it stood. Well,
it was a breezy day and when we both weren’t looking we heard a loud crash. You
guessed it! That cabinet crashed down and the mirror backing shattered
into many different pieces. Our first reaction was, "Oh shoot!"
My next thought was, "I was looking for a large amount of mirror and
now I have it!"

Need to perk up
that spot in your yard that needs a little something extra? This will for
sure!
To my mother-in-law, I am very sorry the
cabinet broke, but in the end it did allow me to create these beautiful new pieces.
