Gave up on filling a huge wall in my living room for 2 years

I had this massive 12 foot blank wall in my Denver apartment that I kept meaning to fill with some big art piece. Last month my buddy came over and just leaned a 6 foot mirror against the wall on the floor, nothing else. It totally broke the pressure I felt to buy something expensive and perfect. Now I just rotate random stuff there like a thrift store painting or a plant stand, and it looks way better than any planned gallery wall I ever tried. Anybody else have a frustrating wall that solved itself when you stopped overthinking it?

The cool thing about that mirror trick is how it makes the wall feel alive instead of just decorated. It changes what you see in the reflection based on the time of day, what you're wearing, or if there's a window across from it. That beats a static painting that never changes. Have you noticed the mirror makes the apartment look bigger too, or is that just me?
