IDAL Instructor Biography
Michele Buchanan

Michele has been a decorative painter since childhood but started her full-time business in 2013. She spent hundreds of hours researching how to silver glass as the struggle to antique already made mirrors was inconsistent and expensive. She uses the same chemicals and formulas used when mirroring began in the 1800’s. Once she got the process down to a literal science, she fell in love.

Many of her projects have been in magazines and designer publications. She has cut and silvered thousands of feet of mirrors over the years! Michele lives in the river city of Richmond, VA on a small lot with her husband, three cats, 400,000 bee’s and two chickens.
