And what to hang above the mantel? …I’m thinking a sunburst mirror …or maybe a clock. Here are my faves within the price range, of course.
* Mini Starburst Mirror – Nickel *
* Crate & Barrel ~ Starburst Mirror *
* Horchow “Cyrus” Sunburst Mirror *
*set of three*
* Kenneth Wingard ~ NOVA Starbursts *
* Pottery Barn ~ Cannon Mirror *
* Umbra 24-Inch Starburst Clock, Bronze *
* Umbra Starburst Extra Large 24-Inch Molded Wall Clock, White *

I don’t consider myself a very vain person, however I LOVEEEEE mirrors! They open up the room whereever they’re placed. With that being said, I adore the horchow mirror! Good luck!

I LOVE the canon mirror!! Gorgeous!
Lyndsy
Curtains look great and I adore the Crate & Barrel Sunburst one! Looks so good!

I love the canon mirror but I don’t know if I would get annoyed with constantly glimpsing the convex reflection it creates. I also love the umbra clock in bronze because it adds a nice pop of color without overwhelming the space. I am most in love with the Nova Starbursts though because they are unique, remind my of sea urchins, and there are three so you basically get to make your own piece of artwork.

I love both the Cyrus mirror and the Cannon one.
I saw one very similar to the Cyrus one at the Homegoods on Fallbrook and Victory this weekend. They have a huge mirror selection there.

I have the Crate & Barrel starburst and really like it. It’s pretty good sized so it would be a nice focal point. However, I really like Nova Starbursts…

Cannot choose!!!

Oooh, I vote Horchow “Cyrus” Sunburst Mirror. It mimics the shape of the bricks in the fireplace and would give a nice sense of continuity…

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Crate & Barrel Startburts. 🙂 Adorable.
Jacqueline
I have the Crate & Barrel item and I love it =) xo

the sunbursts are kinda cool, probably like horchow or maybe nova best. have you thought about doing a large b&w photog above mantel? (that’s what we had–3 individual b&w photos of our kids in one frame resting on the mantel at our old house before we moved here. now we don’t have a fireplace/mantel, so it’s resting on floor in our bedroom.) 🙂

I do love the Pottery Barn mirror, which is more MY style. However, I also love the Cyrus sunburst mirror. You did say you want to stay away from modern because you’re feeling like it’s overdone, so I think either of those two would be perfect. Each has a more timeless feel to it, and could be incorporated into many different decor schemes.
Naomi
I love your choices, and it’s so hard to choose just one. So my top two are the Crate and Barrel Sunburst or the Pottery Barn cannon Mirror. I look forward to seeing the completed look.

I LOOOOVE the Crate and barrel Sunburst and the Canon Mirror. As an interior designer myself, the horchow mirror is played out and you can find look alikes everywhere so i do not suggest going down that road. Meanwhile, I LOVE the grey. I painted my house the same color!

The second mirror and first clock are awesome.

I vote lots of different mirrors 🙂 Or maybe lots of different little clocks. Too crazy?

Oh Meagan, I love the grey color on the wall and the mirror, I have two or three mirrows in each room, it seems bigger and the lights that reflect depends of the sun it´s magic. I love cannon mirror effect, if you read Architectural Diges´t in every house appears it all the time.

starburst mirrors and clocks are awesome!
jilliandanica
I like the Horchow Cyrus one.
Rowena Anne
I love the Cyrus!!! i think it would go best with what you already have going on! The cannon mirror would keep the cooler pallet that and add “hardwear” to your mantel. If this is a non TV area, the Cannon would be a great focal piece!!. But i am so in love with the Cyrus… keep shopping?? =p
madame b fatale
I think, hmmm.
First or last or Horchow “Cyrus” Sunburst Mirror. I love them all though!?!
erin
i prefer the cyrus sunburst mirror… i think a mirror would be best for the space, a clock would sort of deaden that wall.
Hanako66
i love the one from horchow…it is such a classic piece that you will have around for a long time
lbluca77
I LOVE LOVE the Pottery Barn Cannon Mirror. I am heading over to PB right now to check out the price.
Vee
My vote is for hte Mini Starburt Mirror, it would look great between the two windows adding so much light to the room.
Stacey B
I love the cannon mirror, my second pick would be the three smaller sunburst mirrors from Crate and Barrel.
Fallon
Like a lot of the comments above I love the Cannon mirror!!! 2nd choice would be the cyrus sunburst mirror!
betz
i love the canon mirror to Maegan. I can’t wait to see how it’ll turn out. i’m sure it’ll be perfect!

The Hortow one or the canon one? I think thats what its called are my faves. Looks good girl!
K.Line
That top sunburst mirror would look perfect there. It’s looking great in that room!
josephine
The crate & barrel one is my favorite. You may also want to browse eBay/antique stores.
Kelly @ Dare to be Domestic
these are all amazing! I would say I’m in love with Starburst #1 and also what I like to call the “RAPPERS DELIGHT” mirror. My boyf and I always say those concave mirrors make you look like you’re in a rap video when you walk up to them.
Jamie
Love the 1st sunburst the most! I’m loving the posts about your new home. 🙂 So much fun!
Jessica
Definitely sunburst – I like the Crate & Barrel one a lot. But I’m also loving the nautical-inspired circle mirror. Basically, I’m no help.

mirror, mirror on the wall……

Loving all the process you guys are making. My bedroom color is really similar.

I am a sucker for mirrors above a mantel. I LOVE the first two you posted!!! Have fun decorating.
Meghan
Do it! I love the “Cyrus”!
God's Favorite Shoes!
I have those curtains! I got them from Pier 1 Imports though. I vote for the sunburst over the mantel too:)
bananas.
i am a big fan of the sunburst look but i gotta say that cannon mirror is pretty fucking cool. i’ve never seen anything like it. i seriously love it.

I love the Unbra clock…. You must be excited.. I can’t wait to see the after pictures.
diane
Tough call. I’d have to say the white clock.
Looking good. 🙂

I love, love, love sunburst mirrors. Try searching for them on Craigslist too. I bet you’ll get some good results in your area.

I loooove the Cyrus mirror!
Life with Kaishon
I am SO in love with the nova sundrops. Oh my goodness, they are so pretty! : )
Margarita
I`m against the clock and the cannon mirror – although it`s very cool I think that space would do well with a starburst mirror – or even the other starburts, it would balance the room out well and add a bit of pizazz.
Good luck choosing!
Heidi Renée
I am LOVING the cannon mirror!
Kapaali Design Love
I love the Cannon mirror.
Runaway Gallery
Ooh, I think I like either the last one of the bubble mirror.

LOVE SEEING DECOR on here!
Rachel
I love love the first one. It has a great balance of mirror and sunburst. It is simplistic and elegant. I love it.
Pretty Little World
I vote for a sunburst mirror – any of those first three are positively wonderful!! And what an amazing space!! It looks so lovely!!
Bella
I think I like the white clock the most for the space, but it depends on what you’re doing furniture wise!!
Kathryn
I vote for the Horchow “Cyrus” Sunburst Mirror. A mirror really opens up a room and the style is modern, yet classic.
Erin
I think you need a piece of art… a great black and white photograph or a grey toned abstract to bring out the grey on the wall and the black in the curtains.
Windsor Grace
The starbursts are awesome. It took me a sec to realize you don’t have all of them in your house. I was like, wow, she really ran with the theme…
anhesty
you def should do the sunburst. i like the first one you have on your post. or even something like this:

I like it all!! The color on the walls looks like the color I painted our master bath this weekend. Nice!
~alison
I like the first one with the color of the walls!! But they are all pretty cool! Maybe the Crate & Barrel ones with the brown – good!
Meg Kathleen
It looks like it’s all coming together! I think the Crate and Barrel sunburst mirrors are my favorite!
Tanya
I think the sunburst seem very “you”…but I’d have to see it first to decide!
Off topic-do you think you could do a post showing different ways to tie scarves?
pammella
Loving the character the room is taking on! IMO the Crate and Barrel Star Burst mirrors get my vote!
ArzuSonmez
i love the little 3 pc set starburst mirrors in the second pic. So unique, and cool !!! luv it. btw, your house is coming along very nicely, keep up the good work, it’ll eventually worth all of it.
diamondsinchampagne
Those sunburst mirrors are gorgeous. They will look fab above the mantel
Rebecca Doroshuk
I love the set of 3 Kenneth Wingard starburst!! The color or them are amazing!! Also the Crate & Barrel mirror starbursts are great textures!!!

I just did my fireplace and put a mirror over on the mantel…I love the starburst,but i dont think they look best over the mantel. It needs to be hung on a wall somewhere, where as with the mirror u can rest it directly on the mantel, and vOILA…a beautiful fireplace!
April
I don’t know if someone already said this but the first one and the last two are totally DIYable. think lots and lots of chopstix!
