October fun at Mirror80

October fun at Mirror80

It’s been an amazing October at Mirror80! We’ve reveled in the new fall season, cooked up two Retro Foodie photo shoots, and enjoyed a couple of DIY projects. Add a series on bargain shopping for retro finds and a tour of a very ’80s bathroom, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Today we take a look back at our favorite October moments. In case you missed anything or you want to take a second look…

IMAGES AND THEIR CORRESPONDING BLOG POSTS (Clockwise from the top left):

  • This month we explored how to shop retro in a vintage-loving world, starting with my trip to Warrenton, TX, where one of the biggest antique festivals in the country takes place each fall and spring. Then I bought the Copco spice rack and Oleg Cassini ring holder (shown at the top of the montage) at a local antique mall. Read all about bargain shopping for retro finds here, and stay tuned for a future post on hitting garage sales for ’80s treasures!
  • Got leftover Halloween candy? Put it to good use by treating yourself with this easy milkshake recipe…
  • This DIY paper strip art project is super simple and makes a big impact!
  • It’s not too late to take a fall snack break… Don’t forget the whipped cream and sprinkles for the hot chocolate!
  • This October, I also took you on a tour of my ’80s-style bathroom, featuring details such as the vanity lighting pictured at the bottom right of the montage. Stay tuned for future room and home tours…
  • Looking for a November centerpiece for your home? Try this painted butternut squash DIY project, inspired by ’80s landscape art.
  • We also shared 3 go-to ingredients for instant ’80s style, including the candy-coated licorice sprinkles pictured above!

We have some amazing posts planned for November, including many features on New Retro interior design, from late ’70s geometric finds to sleek 1980s decor. Stay tuned…
