Mirror
But let's not talk more about that and move on to the main idea of the post.
step by step 🌺
Today we are going to work a job done with those egg cartons that usually end up in the garbage. It is a mirror decorated with flowers very easy to make. So get to work my friends.
🌺 Materials
Elaboration 🌺
🌺 First step.
The first thing to do is cut the cardboard until you get the shape you see in the image, but do it with great care so as not to waste the material.
Second step.🌺
We take out the shape of the flower with 5 petals each, so that the circular shape is well trimmed; keep in mind that the flower can be formed of 3 or 4 of these figures.
🌺 Third step.
We make a mixture of water and cold paint of the color that we like the most (watercolor type) and with the help of the brush we paint, we must not enchumbar a lot the brush with the mixture so that we do not deform the cardboard. Then we put it in an egg carton that we have left so that they do not lose their shape. I put the fan to them to dry faster, and I went spinning.
Fourth step.🌺
Then we cut a cardboard a little wider than the mirror, and that's where the flowers are going to be glued, if we want we can paint to give it a base of the same color as the flowers.
By last.
With the help of silicone we are sticking the petals, and we give the curved shape with a pen or a brush, we must do it gently so as not to break the cardboard.
When we have all ready we put a little silicone on the back and we stick around the mirror.
howdy from Texas @carolinacardoza! this is a great post because it demonstrates that you can take what would normally be considered throw out trash and convert it into something beautiful!
exceptional quality post, well done!
What is the governmental situation there, is it somewhat stable?
God bless you down there!
Hello friend, how are you, very grateful for your support, God bless you and your family too.
Here in Venezuela we are in a bad situation, after being a rich country and having abundance, we become a poor country, there is a lot of hunger and we are violating our most basic human rights such as health, water, life and law. at the information. I only ask God to help us and get out of this bad situation soon, because we Venezuelans are not bad and we help many in our good times. greetings and thanks
howdy today @carolinacardoza! thanks for getting back to me and explaining the situation there in Venezuela, it's heart-breaking to see this happening to such a beautiful country. Is there any signs of improvement, what needs to be done to fix this?
be safe, God bless you!

This was a very creative idea! The mirror looks gorgeous with these flowers, and they look like the real flowers! 😉
This is very creative, simple like you say, but very creative. What i admire the most is the originality in this idea. Very true, there is so much around us to recycle and use in other ways.
