Sunbursts, Starbursts and Redvines


I feel like I am the only one choosing to stay off of the sunburst bandwagon. I just don't like them. As much as I'm thrilled that retro styles are back, this is one that I feel should've stayed in the past.

People are just ADORING them, and coming up with many different ways of making them.

We've got..

Utensils..

Shims

Grass (seriously?!)







(i can't find the source for this - pinterest keeps leading me to other people's pins)











Even clothespins!



























(Can I still hate them, but LOVE something that was inspired by them...? The art piece below makes me think of dandelions :-))

When I refer to these mirrors-that-i-do-not-like, I OFTEN call them "starburst" mirrors.



candy... yumm...

So I often have to correct myself. "I hate sunburst mirrors. I love starburst." But... I only have redvines.

If you follow me on Facebook, you probably knew this was coming....



















This is where this gets REALLY entertaining... I hung the licorice-burst mirror up, only to have it look like Lauren hill.























PLEASE tell me you see it! 

Anyhow... after I got done cracking up, I still had ALLLLL this licorice to eat.






Oh, woe is me!













How do you feel about sunburst mirrors? How about LICORICE-burst mirrors?

I think I need to go lie down - sugar rush...
