Give me an over the top mirror any day

I think If I could get away with it, I would have a big ornate mirror in every room in our house. They are so much fun and make any room feel larger than life. This one is super fun painted a bold bright color. It looks like it is actually a frame hung on a large mirror attached to the wall. Love this idea!

i love these brightly painted mirrors. i have seen a few around but since they are so popular now you cant find something like this for less than $200. what im looking for is a place i can find an old one thats in bad shape (and cheap) so i can fix it up and repaint it any ridiculously bright color i want to. any ideas?

Is this a big mirror with a frame on top? It looks gorgeous and the color is truly stunning...I would love this in my master bath...it would be a perfect contrast to its contemporary feel.

Great Idea to dress up a plate mirror. Especially in a plain bathroom!
