Once upon a time... I had a mirror. It wasn't just any mirror.... It was an ugly mirror. I never loved it with my whole heart. I settled. (I hate it when I settle.) It has been on my to-do (paint it) list for years. So, once upon a day, not too long ago, I tore off the paper backing of the mirror and popped out the mirror from the frame (this was no small task... in fact, it was rather large and time consuming). I spray painted it green. Not kelly green, celadon green, lime green, or any kind of cute green... PUKE green (I don't think the color was bad on it's on... but covering up gold with this green did not make for a nice green).
See:
(I told you.)
So off went the green and out came the blue. But then it was so... BLUE. So I added red and yellow and then sanded it. Does it look old? 
Or does it look like I painted it green, then blue, then red, then yellow, and then sanded it?
Or does it look like I painted it green, then blue, then red, then yellow, and then sanded it? My plan was to hang black and white pics of the world's greatest son inside the frame like it was a bulletin board. I was going to use those "T" tacks (or whatever they are really called). But then I decided to try putting up Nathan's art work instead... and surprise, surprise... I can't decide if I like it.
Do you? (It's in my upstairs hallway... maybe it should go in my bigger, more open downstairs (landing) hallway. ??? (It's large... maybe 36 inches square) Or maybe I should try the first option of putting pics inside of it. ???

Help please! (I'm kind of scared to ask for honest opinions... I would really like you to lie... but deep down inside, I NEED honest opinions!!!!
