Repurposed Twig Mirror

 As soon as you walk in my front door there is a blank wall that was in need of "something."  I decided to take an oval mirror, which was a garage sale find, and cover it with branches from my woods.
 

 Before:  painted brown metal, Victorian looking frame.



 After: Liberal amounts of hot glue and twig pieces put together like a puzzle.

The perfect woodsy, organic touch. Cost: already had the mirror and hot glue. Branches, free.
