I engraved the beautiful waterfall Feigumsfossen on the backside of a mirror from IKEA
It is an amazing effect. Even with daylight backlight it gives you the feeling of being there.
My picture does´nt give the right impression, but the cost should´nt scare anyone from trying.

About the waterfall:
It is 218 meter free fall, and is situated in Feigum in the middle of Norway.
The third highest waterfalls in Norway based on free fall.
I´m proud of having a cottage just a few hundred meters nearby, and I´m enjoying every day I´m spending time in there. YOU SHOULD VISIT TO if you have the chance.

P.s. unfortunately i forgot to mirror the picture, but i´m coming back when I´ve bought some new mirrors.

Great idea! I might try it myself.
Thanks for sharing!

I´m working on a solution with a LED-light behind the mirror, so it can shine after dark.
I´m open for suggestions if anyone have an idea.

Very nice. I am always afraid to try new materials because I am too lazy to look up the MSDS to see if they are safe.
