and on the mantle....
This round one I recently found while yard sale shopping. It was only a dollar, and it's rather large. I love the scroll work on it!
Then there's this beast!!! I painted the frame just yesterday. She weighs a ton!(I can relate to her).
I love vintage mirrors. They have such character. The etched ones are my favorites.
I think some of these graced medicine cabinets years ago.

She originally was a dark cream color with gold trim. But in order for her to stay at the lakehouse, she needed to lighten up.(Kind of like me..as in diet).
After her make-over, I tried to get her up on the wall.....but she was sooo heavy! I had to bring Hubby in and have him help me hoist her to the peg. Seriously, they must have used lead to put this baby together...because she wasn't going to go up without a struggle.

I am NOT happy with my reflection in this beautiful old mirror, however. I'm hoping she was once used in a "fun house", because my reflection seems to look distorted...as in WIDE!
I'm sure it's just a flaw in the glass.
Have a good day folks!

ReplyDeleteI love the mirrors, they bring in so much light. I too like to have them all around the house. The big oval ones are my favorite. Have a wonderful walk, I wear my pj's in the morning walking around the gardens, don't tell anyone.
