I love it so much that I would even suggest doing it for a clock.

What you'll need:

Round Mirror – this one is 7″

Plate, a few inches larger than the mirror

Cardboard

Silverware (Depends on your layout. I used 12 knives, 8 forks, & 12 spoons)

Beads (enough to go around mirror)

Glue (I used hot glue) ---

BBM NOTE - FOR STABILITY YOU MIGHT TRY A STRONGER GLUE LIKE SUPER GLUE OR E6000.

*** UPDATES – I am not having a problem with the hanging method – but I think that I’m going to reinforce it a bit. I don’t want the cardboard to weaken over time and crash.

Also – I would consider spray painting your cardboard a color close to your walls. Where I’ve got it hanging you can see the cardboard from one angle. It would blend with the wall better if it was painted. ;) *
