The "A rose by any other name is a Malma" mirror


Materials:
Malma Mirror, clay, paint, varnish, glue

Description:
Using a self-hardening clay (no kiln needed), form your roses, then once dried, paint and varnish them. Glue them to the Malma mirror with bathroom-tile glue, to which you can add paint, so that it will blend in with your color of roses.

  4. Hi Eileen,

    This is great! I am actually currently casting an interior design show for HGTV and our first stop is Lisbon. I'd love to chat with you about some ideas. My email is kwoolsey@highnoontv.com if you're interested!
