10. Gilded Sunburst Mirror from Vintage Spoons
High-end Art Deco wall art often features expensive sculpted metal rays radiating from a central mirror, but you can achieve this exact high-design look using everyday materials. Collect a bundle of inexpensive metal or rigid plastic dessert spoons, along with solid metallic skewers or brass rods of varying lengths. Cut the handles off the spoons, keeping only the oval bowls. Spray paint both the spoon bowls and the metal rods in a rich metallic brass or warm copper finish. On a round wooden disc backing with a center cutout for a circular mirror, glue the spoon bowls in overlapping concentric circles, mimicking the texture of overlapping stylized feathers or scales. Intersperse the long metal rods between the outer edges to create dramatic radiating rays. Glue a convex or flat circular mirror into the center cutout to finish an eye-catching, dimensional wall sculpture.
