Remember this?
Well this weekend we finally got rid of the tacky mirror mosaic around the fireplace!
First I ripped off the old molding and started chipping away at the mirror mosaic.

Next I taped off the entire area and spray painted the brass strips on the doors.
(I didn't change the tiles - the lighting just makes them look different.)
Then I put up new molding and painted it glossy white. I hadn't planned on keeping those square things at the bottom of the side pieces but when I took them off I noticed the tile had been cut to accommodate them so if I didn't put them back there would be a space on either side.
The trim and spray paint cost a little under $20 - if I'd known the project would be this easy and inexpensive I would have done it months ago!
Its nothing fancy but we really love how it turned out!

What do you think?
