Livestock Brands Mirror

 Did you see the photo covered magnet board I made for my sister?  That was like 4 years ago.  

Well I actually originally bought an unfinished mirror from Michael's to put photos around, but then I decided to do a magnet board instead.  I have been de-junking a little bit and the other day I came across the unfinished mirror that has been moved from place to place. I figured it was time to do something with it. This is what I came up with...


I looked up some brands online, picked the ones I liked, and then drew them onto the mirror with a pencil.  My husband saw me doing it, and thought it was kind of cool.  When I told him I was going to use the wood-burner to draw them on.  He offered to do that part.  And of course I was MORE THAN WILLING to let him!



After he was done I just stained it with Early American Minwax Stain.

PS. One of the brands is ours...can you guess which one?

  5. I've been doing some wood burning too. I like how you used stain. I burn, paint and then go back in a re-burn. Too much work. Such a great vintage western look. Thanks for sharing on BeColorful.
