atomic starburst.

the crafty peoples over at threadbanger just uploaded this super cute tutorial on how to make a 50's style starburst mirror...

i created this one a few months ago... 

it's not as festive as the threadbanger one, but it works. 

i used a similar method, by starting off with the cardboard circle...but instead of using dowels or skewers, i used pages from a magazine.

just tear out a colorful page from a magazine, start rolling it like sushi (really skinny sushi) and lay down glue from your glue stick every couple of inches as you roll.

the process is really easy and adds a lot to your lame walls.
