This mirror is my design. It’s a little flat, and I could have made the top overhang more, but it was fun designing my own piece.

Like Chip said on the last one….I’m getting writer’s cramp. One word here on this one: Sweet! I am in total awe.

Thanks Panama Jack. I guess it’s not fair that I dump a couple of years worth of work on you guys all at once. I’m not that prolific! In fact, I struggle to find the time, but I love woodworking, and it’s limitless boundaries.

This is great, John! I’m working on an Arts and Crafts-influenced dressing mirror. I’m going to post the sketches soon and would love your feedback as I’m pretty new at this. You, on the other hand, seem to be quite accomplished. Wonderful pieces.

What program are you using for your computer sketches, if I may ask?

Thanks for the kind words Gents.
Hops – I use Google Sketchup these days for 3D modelling. The picture above was just drawn up by hand in MS Photodraw.
Caliper, I’m on my way to check out your mirror design…

Another one. Beautiful! Thanks for giving the dimensions. Did you bend of bandsaw the curves on the mirror frame?

Thanks RonR. I dry bent everything. The mullions where 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch and where easy to bend. I was pleased with the addition of the art glass in the corners…it seems to add a nice contrast.

RonR. Thanks for Visiting EagleLakeWoodworking.com
I love it when people stop by, check out my stuff and comment. That’s the whole reason I have it up there!
Oscorner – thanks for the nice compliment. The mirror was a Christmas gift for my wife a few years ago, and a couple of days before Christmas, I was installing the mirror in the frame and I CRACKED it! I was cutting it close, but I was luckily able to get a replacement in time.
