A pretty intense DIY starburst mirror...
So, I took this 90's-ey sun mirror and added some skewers, primer, and spray paint, and turned it into a magnificent sunburst-ey decor piece! ;) Here's the before and after...
I hot-glued the skewers on the back, shortening them to different lengths with the longest and shortest in the centers. I actually used two different sizes of skewers, since the biggest-around were nice but would have gotten in the way for some of the shorter pieces, overlapping in the center back. So, I put the skinnier ones in on the shorter bursts, in between the bigger ones.
Spray primered the whole thing (looove that stuff), and spray-painted gold!
And there it hangs proudly.
Instead, above our bed (we really did need something there! It was empty wall space above the headboard!), I hung another sunburst mirror, one that had been above the guest bed... and I put yet another, smaller, more coppery sunburst mirror above the guest bed. Yes, if you were counting, that's THREE sunburst mirrors in my little house, plus a couple of other gold-framed, round, and oval mirrors. Which begs the question... is there such a thing as too many sunburst mirrors?? ;) I love them!
