Mirror, Mirror, You're Not a Mirror at All

Back at my fav bargain stomping grounds, Dollar Tree, I came across these faceted mirrored candle plates. My room doesn't have candles for various reasons (no visitors, no horizontal space, etc.) but I still liked the candle plates for a different reason. I created a mirror mosaic on my wall to reflect light and make my room feel not as small.

How did I do it? I put command strips on each side of each mirror and placed them semi-equidistant to each other to create a mosaic affect. I only purchased three at the time, but could have continued with this design. Notice how 2 are vertical and 1 is horizontal. Mix it up! Tip: First lay out your design on a flat surface to get an idea for how your design will translate on to the wall.

How long did this take? 10 mins. max.
Cost? $3 for mirrors and command strips I already had
