wall o’ mirrors

16 March 2011

march 2011 065 1 Here is a wall of mirrors in my daughter’s bedroom we’ve been working on. She has high ceilings, so we needed something with a big impact, lots of color, and little money.


First up, the sunburst mirror! I’ve been wanting to do one forever…march 2011 022 1
Janell @ Isabella & Max Rooms got me hooked and gave a fabulous tutorial, and then to make things even better, Stephanie Lynn @ Under the Table and Dreaming gave a printable template to use on her site. Thanks to both of of these fabulous ladies! The mirrors were from Target clearance and we used a $1 package of bamboo skewers from Walmart.
