Miniature Retro Mirrors, by Natassa Blazaki


Hello my dears and welcome back to Andy’s Blog. Hope you got the chance to have some nice time with family during Easter. I also hope you’re all well and safe. Hang on there and craft craft craft 😊

Today I’m back with a cute project, that I had for a long time in my mind and particularly, since I first saw Andy’s Mixed Media Transfers “Retrology”.

So, I decided to try and replicate those retro advertising mirrors, I’m sure you’ve all seen them in diners or pubs, hanging on the walls.

I absolutely loved those transfers and I used all the designs to make a bunch of miniature mirrors. Then, I took a large piece of grey board, to make a wall panel for them.
Below, you can see a photo step by step for the mirrors and the background.

Here are some close ups and you'll find a list of materials at the end of this post.
I really hope you enjoy this one and get some inspiration on how to use Andy Skinner's Mixed Media Transfers.






You all stay healthy and creative😘
