Transform a thrift store mirror into a show-stopping mirrored centerpiece in just a few easy steps! This is a budget friendly home decor idea for any home!
Easy DIY mirrored centerpiece:
I shared this morning how I got some amazing thrifty things at my local ReStore lately…one of them being this little mirror:
the beautiful detailing practically screamed, “Take me home now!” while it was surrounded by a pile of junk. Of course I listened!
First step: CLEAN the mirror. I was surprised how it was truly in perfect condition!
Second: Tape off & Prime
Third: Spray Paint
Fourth: Remove the tape, and decorate!
I got the silver candlesticks for 90 cents each at the thrift store about a year ago, and I hadn’t found the right place for them. I think these are a perfect match for the tray!
I had to post what Buckley was doing while I was taking these pictures…he’s just living the life on his heated blanket, wondering why his mommy is so strange:

OMG.. you never cease to amaze me- this is beautiful. I thrift shop from time to time and never seem to have this kind of luck- maybe luck will strike this summer when I have more time.
how are things going with your new friend? (in class)
This is gorgeous!! Looks very peaceful 🙂
Looks very elegant and easy! I have never been to a ReStore. I must get there.
Great find! You are awesome!
This is beautiful! I love the re-store!
Hey girl! That is beautiful! I saw one of those at my thrift store last week- I should have picked it up- it looks beautiful with candles on it 🙂
Very nice! This just made me think of the mirrored vanity tray I have that's gold colored. I could do the same thing with it!!! I would like it so much better if it wasn't gold!!!
How lovely!
This looks beautiful!! You did such a nice job and the candles look great! Buckley is so cute!
This is beautiful! Definitely calming, and white candles are so timeless. Nice find!
Love it! I need one of these for my dresser in my bedroom!

love that! glad you didn't pass it up!
I love it! I'm all about mirrors and candles they dance with light. this tray is really great because it is a mirror and has a touch of femininity too.
What a very creative way to use a mirror. Love it! and it matches the candlesticks well.
I had a mirror almost like this when I was little. I should of kept it! I love that you repainted the metal. The mirror completes the look of your fun display! Thanks so much for linking up to Terrific Under Ten today!!
You rescued a great piece! It's amazing what a little soap and water can do, huh? If I buy anything dishwasher safe, I always run it through a cycle and am AMAZED at the wonderful change. Your paint is great for the mirror! Love it.
Love the way your centerpiece turned out! Really pretty.
this looks great! I love it with the candles, it makes it so inviting
I found a mirror just like that one at the Goodwill last summer… funny I just kind of stumbled upon your blog today…. I did the same thing with spray paint… right now I have it displayed on a shelf with an empty bright blue frame and some other pretties!! My mirror was brass before though, people were looking at me like I was crazy when they saw how excited I got when I found it!!
So elegant and romantic…..
Take care,
Lisa
It's so pretty! I can't wait to add a little pretty/romance (and spring) to my home – once our kitchen is done! Thanks so much for sharing your creativity in the DIY Project Parade! 🙂
Have a wonderful week!
