My wife wanted a mirror for the outside of the shower door, but up until now hasn't seen one she deemed worthy. After being inspired on our last camping trip by some wall decor in a tourist shop, I drew up some quick sketches and made her one to suit. The backing is mahogany ply (luaun to you woodworkers), and the twigs and acorn caps came from the back yard. A local glass shop cut the mirror to suit.

Just showed this to my wife, she's the artistic one in the family.  I think she's been inspired...

Be sure to post a photo when she's done. I'd love to see what her inspiration results in.
 
Thanks to all for your kind comments. To others who may be inspired, I would recommend you use epoxy to hold everything together rather than hot glue like I did - I believe one tiny dot of that hot glue can be stretched thinner than a spider web and will extend clear across my basement. You absolutely cannot shake off any drips of melted glue that accidentally land on your hand. The burns are still healing.
