The disco ball in this Gramercy Park apartment sparked ideas/reminders of the many places a disco ball can create a little flare and joy at home. In the bathroom, office, living room or kitchen (we couldn't find an image of a disco bedroom, but maybe that's a good thing), this accessory is not only for a 70s-inspired home:

I have wanted to put one in my bathroom for years - just for giggles.
I just fell in love with a crystal version of the disco ball in a boutique clothing shop. More of a chandalier-disco ball hybrid. Check out this version:

There are less pricey versions out there too.
I have wanted to do this for so long. I think it's super fun.
Love the disco ball! Shake your groove thang!
I like the bathroom one.
Where's the Neon Beer Sign and the Illuminated Dance Floor?
fun for the bathroom
Well, before you showed the photos, you could have never convinced me that a mirrored ball was for anything else than a seventies styled home. Nice photos.
Re Casa Sugar: Goth, indeed. Please take down the deer's head. It's a horrible design cliche, plus what did this animal do to deserve having its head put up on someone's wall?
Disco balls are such fun. People who don't like disco are people who can't dance.

He broke someone's Disco Ball while eating the plastic daisies?
For years I had an 18" disco ball - because really, once you own it...like..what CAN you do with it?
I kept mine on a little padded ring on the floor next to the couch. It was near a sunlit window which made for CRAZY sparkles in the morning time.
I bet the antelope was going for the daffodils.
I have a big one! I bought it for an 80's themed birthday party I was going to throw for my boyfriend's birthday... then he decided he didn't want a party. I'm contemplating putting it in our bathroom for morning sparkles.
A friend of mine bought a bunch of disco ball ornaments a few christmas' past and he loves sticking them in random places around the house for fun.
mine is in the second bathroom below a skylight and next to a mirrored wall.
i got it for a birthday gift YEARS ago. it still makes me laugh. most guests and my god kids love it.
I had three that were intended as Christmas ornaments (in green and purple clear glass, not actual mirrors) hanging from beaded cords in the kitchen window of my previous place. The cats were fascinated by the sparkles around sunset!
