So the reason I dug up a raster to vector plugin for Photoshop that was easy to use is to make these! This was the thing that got me interested in a laser cutter. I love making miniature furniture, but some of it was way too complex for me… and the time spent at the motosaw in the lab, which is actually the back bedroom, in order to make these was daunting. Living in California means a small apartment and no house, so you make do with what ya got.
The “mirror” on these is clear plastic transparencies with mirror finish sprayed on the back. If you flick vinegar and water at a 50/50 mixture then spray you get this great aged look. I finished them with Citrus Shield clear wax because it smells so freaking good! The smaller mirror is about 3.5 inches across.
I made a post about it here! It works well and because it’s part of photoshop it does a lot of the step for you so you don’t have to do the whole raster to path to whatever.
