Today I'm painting another thrifted item to hopefully look like expensive art. I've been into upcycling and using things that I already have, so I'm using acrylic paints that I always use, and this thrifted tray I bought at a thrift store. I hope you enjoy this art video, and I hope it inspires you to give something old a makeover! :)

Who else thinks she is super underrated 👇🏻
I love your art, Mira! You inspire me to step out of my comfort zone and create something important I would have never created otherwise!
First I just wanted to let you know that I believe that tray is for a cheeseball. It would've had a glass dome that went over the middle circle, when it was new. Anyway, this piece is really striking! I don't want to show this to my sister, who loves moths, because she would probably make me create something similar to hang in her new house...lol
What?! Wow, I love cheeseballs so I really hope that’s what this was for lol!
Yes, that’s what it’s for!! The channel around the outside is for the crackers!
I love it!! I think the vines around the outside was the perfect touch!! It is what I had pictured when you showed the finished moth!!
This looked amazing! What a transformation! Loved the vines! Really brought it all together!
Still waiting to see an ocean scene with fish and corals and plants. Oh how I've been waiting to see your take on that because I think you will do an amazing job . Love your videos
Wow this is beautiful! I thought it was a chip and dip plate or platter but you turned it into art!
Never seen anything like it!
Ooh! Do a spa day for your brushes, and just have a sit and chat while you clean them, and just make it chill. I mean, whatever you do, I'm here for it!! 🥰
This so by far my favourite painting you’ve ever done. I find every time you step out of your comfort zone you create incredible things!
So cool! Very "Dark Academia!" 😍
Wow! My husband and I love to go thrifting and now I want to get back to Goodwill and find a serving tray to paint! lol
Thank you for sharing your process with us!
How beautiful! That moth comes out of the piece! Thank you for sharing!
IT. LOOKS. SO. GEORGEOUS!! Can't handle this 🥺
The last.thing I painted was a purple dahlia for my friend in the hospital. I like the moth, the dark background reminds me of those specimen cases. I think making your own art for your home is great. It's more meaningful and you can really make things to your own taste.
The copper paint really pops…it turned out awesome!
I am always on the lookout when thrifting for opportunities to upcycle!
Gorgeous! The way the subject in the center is supported by the vines. It just works together *so well!*
The second I saw your wood piece I was hoping you’d paint a moth! They are my favorite thing you paint! You’re so good at it❤️
Love what you did with that tray. Definitely looks like it should be hung in a fancy study or library.
I love this moody moth!!!! I would love to see it turned into a sticker or a print or both. It would make an excellent embellishment or envelope seal!! I love your artwork❣️
Would definitely fit into any dark academia setting. Lovely!!
Mira!!! It's Beautiful!!! What a beautiful piece for your home, love it!!
Wowzer! I wasn’t sure where you were going but the final product is beautiful!!!!
I've been wanting to paint on thrifted stuff for a hot second!!!
6:32 wow, you have hardly done anything yet but it’s already looking so gorgeous! 😊🩷
I only chose this vid BECAUSE I saw the one where you came back from the thrift store with it. I immediately thought of sand-papering it and filling the outer circle with macramee, and making a cat silhouette for the center raised circle...
I was very curious to see what would you paint on it. glam and moody is original. it absolutely came up awesome! I would say it's definitely anthropologie worthy 🤭
Aww, thank you!! Anthropologie is one of my favorite stores (to window shop from) haha!
I love how this one turned out.
Love it! It has a dark academia feel.
I really like this, that moth looks brilliant 👏
This turned out extremely beautiful !
This really turned out nice, I really like the vines. 😊
Hi, Mira! I love the way this tray came out. You are so awesome! Ciao, Erica
So pretty!
Moths have been a big phobia (Lepidopterophobia) of mine all my life, and I mean screaming, running, crying and shutting myself in wardrobes phobic. I can't even see one on television or in a book without getting a physical fear response. I definitely had to miss some of your earlier moth videos 😨
Now I kind of want to paint one myself! 😮 I still can't look at references of real moths so I'm not sure if it will ever actually happen, but I do now see beauty in your paintings of them . I think this one is my favourite so far ❣Thank you!
Lol they don’t bite, they’re cute little guys. You should look up pictures of fuzzy moths then maybe you won’t be so scared of them 😂
that copper is gorgeous 😍 this is such a stunning idea!
Maravillous, excellent❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love this piece. The moth appears to be 3-D!
would watch an aesthetic wash day!!!
love it at first was not sure but when you added the vines it just finished it perfectly .
I love #June’sJourney !!
Wow I really like that!! You should make it into merch! ❤
It’s very dark academia style. Love this. At first I thought you were going to do a Deaths head moth.
Unbelievable transformation
@MiraByler do a Q and A video while you clean your brushes!!!!
It is gorgeous. Congratulations.
Very pretty! =)
I absolutely LOVE everything about this! I'm a big fan of moody art, moths, and giving thrifted items a new life. So this video was totally my jam! 🖤
That turned out so good! It’s giving those dark botanical wallpaper vibes 😻 You could totally pair it with some faux taxidermy and oddities in cloches 🤔 for a spooky vintage Halloween look
That’s beautiful.
Right when u brought out the trivet I automatically new u were gonna paint a moth😁
i really, really, really love this piece.
That is so beautiful, I need to get some of that copper paint! Xx
I think this is gorgeous! :)
last thing I painted was a big canvas at work, to turn into our kindergarten group's birthday calendar... painted it dark grey, it will turn into a parking lot 😅😅
So creative! I really enjoyed this.
Love this turn out it was so nice, wow you are creative and a inspiration 😊
Very elegant!! 👍
that came out lovely
Super cute!
With how soft and smooth your voice is and how positive you are... Definitely giving me Bob Ross vibes! Love it!
gorgeous
Cool reuse idea! This is a cheese tray that usually comes with a glass cloche lid.
Such a lovely piece
Awesome
Comment of the day- the last thing I painted is a cat! I’m on a cat painting journey. Speaking of journey, I think I’ll try June’s Journey! I love, love, love your videos!
It's AWESOME! I love thrift stores too. Love the way you make others aware of the importance of being kind to ourselves. You're accepting nature inspires us to let our imaginations play without expectations! Thank You!
LOVE the moody moth! I never would have given a second look at that piece of wood, but now I want something like that in my house!
I really like the simplicity of the moth against the dark background and the copper accents makes it look really antique. Its almost like it could have been hanging in an old mansion or on a table with glasses around the edge of it and the bottle of whiskey or gin in the center. Although the tray is actually a teak wood charcuterie board so more for cheeses, crackers, and meats ect. It had a glass cloche with it as well.
CotD: I actually painted a multimedia portrait of a friend's dog as a gift.
That turned out.really good and definitely your style. As soon as I saw the top view a fountain with koi in it took up residence in my head. I unfortunately don't have the talent to give it life lol
I just finished painting seasonal art and scenes on some old wood signs I had previously painted to put vinyl lettering on and I just had the urge to paint instead so I did :) I sell them in my store front and they go over well with buyers :)
Wow, Mira!!! I can totally see this design of art as a mouse pad or stickers or coasters! your moths are the BEST! Great job with this thrifted piece of ART! You're amazing! Kelli
I wouldn’t mind seeing Brush Spa Day! My watercolor brushes are good. But my kid went to college and left me with dozens of her musty crusty ones!
I love that.
That is awesome ❤
The moth piece turned out so cool! Absolutely love it!
It turned out so pretty! I really love the vines in the „background“, kinda looks like vintage wallpaper to me and it matches the overall piece so well 💖
Love it!❤
Absolutely gorgeous. The way you done those vines put me in a calming mood 🙏🏼
Awesome!
Simply gorgeous! I think you hit all the right notes - the matte background, the illustrative moth, the color palette - excellent!
Love it!
I love your moths! This one is particularly beautiful, especially with the vines around it. Nice color choices.
OMG I painted my nails the same exact way! Red with gold ring fingers
I think it’d be cute to put an animal in a sweater in the circle and then some sort of design on the outer ring
Wow, that’s gorgeous! I especially like the moth. Last thing I painted are some flowers, but I planned on some other things, already done the sketches. Now finding the confidence to actually start.
I'm making a patchwork pumpkin that I'm painting. It's fun but it's very tedious. ❤❤❤
This piece is absolutely stunning! The color pallet is gorgeous. I love your videos!!
Most excellent. Blessings.
I took my oldest(8)ABC space canvas print and changed it into a forest ABCs for my little one(2). You've totally inspired me to try painting moths! They look like a fun challenge!
I think this is one of my favorite piece's you've done! Wow❤️
The last thing I painted was my office room and I like to say it's 'white with a whisper of green' which goes perfect with my house plants 💚
I've always loved your art and enjoy watching you create things from your sketchbook ideas to that stunning water painting behind you. This one is just beautiful!! Love everything about it ....and that copper acrylic!! Mwah 👌😁
I love this painting!
Love it
This came out beautiful! What an inspiring video! ✨
Omg this came out so so beautiful! I love it so much!!!!! I would definitely hang that up for sure!!! ❤
Yay! I love thrift makeovers!💕
Well, to answer your question: the last thing I painted on was a custom art doll for Halloween 😊 I even made a video out of the process.
murphy's soap is great for crusty brushes
Beautiful! It looks so good 😍
The last thing I painted were my nails too haha. Before that though.... 🤔 Nah it has been too long ago to remember. It was an upcycle though rainbow style hehe 😱 I've been colouring with pencils.
This most likely came with a glass cloche at one point and may have had a terrarium style interior with preserved butterflies on a branch, or something. I love the way you upcycled it!
