I just hung two mirrors on top of the bueidlr basic mirror (also added a frame around that) in a client's house and it looks really cool! The only issue is that you can see the back of the mirror you hang on top so we took off all the hardware and actually used heavy velcro to attach it so that it could be more flush with the mirror underneath. That's my lil' tip of the day :)Love reading your blog!
