DIY Sunflower Mirror – Espejo de Girasol

July 30, 2016 Comments : 2

I have been searching for a sunflower or sunray mirror for a long while. I have seen a couple at various stores that I’ve loved, however I wasn’t a fan of the prices; I really don’t want to spend $450 on a decorative mirror. Since I call myself a crafter, I thought I should make one ☺ It took me a while to figure out the best materials for this project. Example: I knew I was going to use a circular mirror but I wanted something on top to decorate it, then, Eureka! I should use a wood embroidery hoop and clothespins for this. They are easy to find and really affordable. I decided to cut the clothespin, but that is optional, I think they look better if they’re about 1” ¾ (4.5cm). My husband cut them and he asked me for credit on the blog post. Thank you Kevin for your help! To make it quick he took a 2×6 and drilled 8 holes in it. He then placed the clothespins in the holes and made 8 smaller pins with one cut using a circular saw; genius!

This project came out better than I expected. I placed it on top of my bed and it looks gorgeous! I think I’m going to make a new one to decorate the console in the entry hallway. I hope you enjoy this project and if you make it please share a pic with me on my Facebook page or tag me on Instagram, I’d love to see how the mirror comes out.

If you want this mirror to come out nicely you need to use some math. I drew the patterns and guide to make it easy for you to assemble the sunflower mirror. They are available for free on my blog. To download the patterns for free you need to unlock the link using your social media. These patterns are for personal use only. If you prefer not to use your social media, the patterns are available for purchase on my Etsy shop.

He estado en la búsqueda de un espejo de girasol o uno de rayos de sol ya por un buen tiempo. He visto varios que me han gustado en las tiendas, sin embargo el precio no me ha gustado tanto $450 dólares por un espejo me parece muy costoso.Como no quiero gastar tanto dinero no me queda otra que hacerlo yo misma. Me tomo tiempo escoger los mejores materiales para este proyecto, en especial no sabia que podía usar para hacer el centro del girasol mas impactante. Al final tuve una excelente idea, decidí usar una aro de bordado y los ganchitos de ropa. Cortar los ganchos de ropa es opcional, pero a mi parece se ve mejor con piezas pequeñas 4.5 cm. Mi esposo corto los gancho de ropa y me pidió que le de crédito en el blog por hacerlo. Muchas gracias Kevin. Para corta los ganchos de una manera rápida y segura use un pedazo de madera mas grande de 2×6 y le hizo 8 huecos, en estos coloco los ganchos y los corto usando el cortador circular. Que puedo decir Kevin es un genio.

Este espejo quedo muy lindo, la verdad se ve súper costoso. Yo lo coloque en la cabecera de mi cama y se ve hermoso. Estoy pensando hacer uno mas para la entrada de mi casa. Espero que este proyecto les guste tanto como a mi, y si lo hacen no se olviden de compartir una foto conmigo en mi pagina de Facebook o etiquetarme en Instagram que me encantaría verlo. Estos moldes son solo para uso personal.

Para que este proyecto les salga bien es necesario usar un poco de matemáticas. Para hacerles las cosas mas fáciles yo dibuje la guía y los moldes. Estan disponibles para descarga gratuita en mi blog. Para descargar los moldes gratuitamente tienes que usar cualquiera de tus redes sociales para habilitar el link. Si no quieres usar sus redes sociales los moldes están disponibles en mi tienda Etsy.
