I'm sure you guessed... I want to incorporate driftwood into my home! In our foyer, there is a large space above our bench just begging for a large rectangular mirror. And I have now decided (and become determined) to find one! Here is the space I am working with:
The mirror would go above black bench.
This is before we had the bench. You can see a bit of our old red coat rack.
The first image I showed is almost exactly what I am looking for. The price I had in mind was under $70. The reason I am set on that price is because in the past, I have found great mirror deals at TJ Maxx and Home Goods at that price point and lower. The dimensions would need to be about 24" x 40." This might be a tough task, but I am up for the challenge! There are driftwood mirrors on the market, but are pretty pricey. I have even thought about buying a large, plain mirror and embellishing my own driftwood. (By the way, where could I find small pieces of driftwood???)
I would love to hear your ideas!
For now, I will either think about making my own or continue to scour Home Goods! Wish me luck...

Love driftwood. Can't wait to see what you do - good luck!
Home Goods is always my go-to for mirrors! What a great choice, good luck!
I've been contemplating DIYing a driftwood mirror myself. Check ebay--they have sellers on there that sell driftwood in lots. My thing is I have no idea how much I'd need. Keep us posted if you do decide to take this on:)
I love driftwood, Although I don't have any. Uttermost makes a beautiful table out of it! Good luck with this project...I'm sure it will look great!

You can find driftwood at the beach or on Ebay. Good luck! Looking forward to see your new project!

I think you could do a white wash on heavy, de-barked branches that would give them the driftwood look. I bought a mirror from Homegoods and glued shells all around it...my inspiration piece was $300 and I achieved the same look for $40. You can totally do this yourself!
Go for it! I love the rustic mixed with the nice piece of furniture underneath.

Oooooh, good luck. I'll be sure to let you know if I come across something online.
love some driftwood!
Hmm maybe try Ballard Designs or World Market- sometimes they have cheap options! Or maybe just go for a cheap Ikea mirror and see if you can find some driftwood- they might have some at a place like Michaels or Hobby Lobby
