The challenge is on!!

I have accepted the Imagine The Impossibilities Challenge!



I'm a little nervous, but this was the push I needed to finally try to get things started and actually finish!

Do you have one of those rooms where you start a bunch of different projects and never get back to them! That room that you keep putting off because you either don't know exactly where you want it to go, or it just somehow keeps getting pushed to the back of the list!?

My master bedroom is that room for me!

I had some pretty good ideas...but they never get finished!
The look I'm going for is electric, I want to use soft colors and a mixture of textures and touches of bold graphics...I'm just having a hard time putting them all together!!




I'm loving these rooms!! But how do I achieve this look? Let me show you a picture of what I'm working with!

(I'm so ashamed!)


Notice the too small comforter!! 
I have finally decided to to go with an all white duvet! That way I can play with colors and patterns everywhere else but not be tied into something so expensive!


I need a bench for in front of the bed and a rug!


Progress on my gallery wall

Need to change the curtains!


Well I will need your prayers to complete this one! I have no idea why it seems to be more of a challenge than any other rooms in the house!

Happy Monday! 
Back to work for me!

Another sunburst mirror

Who doesn't love a Sunburst mirror?
I know I do!

They can be a little expensive when purchased from a store.
Here is one from Lightopia that sells one for $149.00




Pottery Barn used to sell this Sunburst driftwood mirror for over $200




   The great thing about these mirrors is they are so easy to make and you probably already have the materials lying around in your home to make one yourself. 

Here is one I made using the tutorial from JandJhome



I love this mirror so much I searched more blogs for a little inspiration!

Shelly over at  Crazy Wonderful made this amazing sunburst mirror!


Natalie from Beach house in the city
made this Sunburst mirror.

Her home was also just featured on the Nate Berkus Show



After all that inspiration, I decided to make a Sunburst mirror of my own!


I used some dowels from Walmart in two different sizes. 
  
6 - 1/2" @ .77 ea

4 -1/8" @ .25 ea

The mirror was from the Dollar Tree...for you named it...$1.00! I spray painted the bigger dowels in metallic silver and left the smaller ones the natural color.

Before you start to glue anything, be sure to know which order you would like to place them.


 I free handed it, but I don't suggest that!


 To hang the mirror on the wall I used jewelry wire. I attached it to two rods and glued the wire into place. 


 This project only took about 10 minutes. The longest part was the spray painting!




  Please check out these awesome sites for your own inspiration!
