The Gold rush 2!

So I was busy working on everything except my bedroom today! UGH! I don't know why I can't stay focused!!
On a better note, other rooms in my house are coming along! I ordered a bunch of fabric that should be here soon, so next week I will be busy making pillows, curtains and covering our ottoman! All of which are still not for our bedroom. I wonder if it not to late to change my challenge!

Ok, so about today!
I'm still a little obsessed with gold! I was looking for a gold and black mirror online and boy did I fall in love with a lot of them!



These are all way out of my price range....so very determined, I ran off to the dollar store to see what I could come up with! 
I found black and gold little mirrors that would work perfect! I bought 13!!

My pretty little monster broke one!

I took the mirror that was hanging above my fireplace


(My apologies for horrible picture quality and please excuse me in the picture! also there is no tutorial)
Mirrors are so hard to photograph!

and turned it into this...


I used the glue gun to glue the small mirrors onto the bigger one.



 The sun burst mirror that was hanging there before is now above the fireplace!



Happy Wednesday!!

I'm partying here!

    You did an awesome job, for a fraction of the cost of those other mirrors.
