Dwell by Cheryl

I mentioned in the Dwell by Cheryl (DBC) preview post that I was really in love with sunburst mirrors. I’m just amazed by the options and the impact that a sunburst mirror provides. They’re slowly becoming one of my signature decorative items. What I like most is the fact that you can find them everywhere from Frontgate to Family Dollar. Yes, I said Family Dollar. I don’t discriminate. You’d be surprised what you can turn up if you don’t box yourself in to specific retailers.

I’ve already used them in three spaces so far.

This one’s on sale now at Kirkland’s (In stores only). I love the texture the leaf motif creates. I think it would do wonders for a ho-hum neutral wall.

This one is a DIY project made out of poster board. I mean, really? Amazing!

Use a pair to create symmetry alongside matching table lamps.

Also, great between two windows.

They even work in a grouping.

You just gotta love a sunburst mirror. It’s cold outside (for most of us), you may as well let the sunshine in.

If money were no object and I had a huge storage space, I’d spend all of my time on Craiglist scoring major deals on fabulous stuff. I can’t tell you how many great killer deals I’ve gotten (and made) over the years and it just keeps getting better. One of my personal favorites was this set of six bamboo chairs for $60.

Yes, that’s $10 a piece! Just for a point of reference, these are $17 on Wal-Mart’s website. Hello.

I immediately painted them white for a gathering at my home. Previously they were a pinkish pickled wood. Unfortunately, 99% of the time they lived in my garage until I recently decided to give them a fresh update with a coat of paint, recovered seat cushions and the addition of a couple of monogrammed throw pillows.
