bemyescape, sorry my response took so long, I didn't see it until today. Anyway, I just hot-glued one of those saw-tooth picture frame hangers to the back.

Connellt, I attached the skewers with just hot glue. My mirror has been hanging for about a year with no issues at all. The dowels went just about as far as they could go into the center of the mirror. In the space around it. The dowels had to go a little further out because of spacing, but they were still far enough in to be secure.

Hope this helps!

I bought that bed at the Crate and Barrel outlet for $100! I actually bought 2 and took the best parts of both and sold the leftovers on craigslist.

Thanks for all of the votes and comments everyone! I see quite a few questions, so I'll do my best to answer.

TheGoodBiGirl, I bought the mosaic mirrors at a local chain craft store (Michael's). They were sold in 25 packs for $1.99 each. I did a quick search online as well, an saw that the online prices were comparable.

Lilli K, all of the other materials, with the exception of the skewers, were purchased at Michael's as well. The skewers I had at home but got those at my local supermarket.

asdf3001, I purchased the pillow cases and duvet at Crate & Barrel a few years ago. I believe they are still online.

lcsf8, the paint is called "Twilight Sky" and it's from Valspar (Martha Stewart line)

Thanks again for the thumbs up, comments and inquiries!
