Create one-of-a-kind wall mirrors by adhering round table mirrors to the inside of our copper patina tin trays. The patina finish gives an antique and rustic look to the trays that’s perfect for woodland-themed weddings. Get creative with how you hang the tray mirrors – leather straps, rope, mesh netting or even fairy lights all add unique detail.
