Fantastic job. I thought the pot holder was a lamp/candle holder. Amazing work. Thanks for the pix.

I just love it when she says I can go make sawdust. ;) :D

Thanks for the kind words, Steve.
A redesign of the smaller frame (and a 90 deg. flip) to accept an oil lamp or candle is a great idea.

This is the flower pot holder/mirror completed with the mirror installed and hangers screwed on.
Fan inc. for visual interest.:D

Here is the back. 1/4" birch ply looks better than Kraft paper, no?

How long did it take to get the ceiling fan centered in the reflection?

Yes it is better than kraft paper.

Again - Good Job!

P.S. Didja use the new PC router?

Thanks, JPG.

When I moved my ugly mug out of the frame, the fan appeared. So, I just sorta centered it.

Didn't use the new one, one just like it though.
