Distressed Wooden Mirror Frame

I've always wanted to make distressed look on wooden frames, furniture or anything at all. So last Sunday I've finally bought an old mirror at car boot sale with usual gold painted frame. I have already started restoring it with wood filler as it had quite few little cracks. Can't wait to properly start working on it with paint!
Today I have spent nearly two hours at local B&Q store choosing a perfect colour for my new mirror. A young helpful store assistant suggested that i would go for store mixed paint service that they do. I wasn't sure at first as i couldn't find a colour that i liked in their colour palette but then decided to get a sample of a colour that was close to what i have been looking for. And oh am i so glad that i got persuaded?!.. The colour turned out perfect, exactly what i was looking for! I am so excited about this project. Work with base coat starts tomorrow.
