I’m five months into my new apartment, and I still feel like there are a few changes that need to be made for it to really feel like home (a chic and stylish home at that). So in 2011, I’m unleashing my inner-DIY skills and creating something amazing. I think this sunburst mirror would look fabulous in my living room.

Have a safe and happy New Year!
