old windows, new mirrors

WindowMirrors-9

I'm so excited to finally show you my new mirrors!!

I took my mom to the Olde Central Antique Mall (where I went with Sara a little while ago) so she could help me pick out a couple of old-window-frame-mirrors. They sat on my kitchen floor for a little bit until she could come over to help me hang them... and now they're finally up!

I am in love with the imperfections, the details, the character...

I decided to get two smaller mirrors instead of one larger mirror because I thought it would look better if there were two pieces to break the wall up and so it wouldn't be as glaringly obvious that the table isn't centered.

I love the rustic feel of the window frames over the clean-cut table. A bit of old to balance out the new.

Now I just need to clean the mirrors...

PS. A very happy birthday to my dear friend John W.! Less than three, always!

  2. I love these! Did they come with the mirrors in them or did you do that??

  4. They came like that!! I wish I could take credit for them... the Olde Central Antique Mall has a bunch of different window-mirrors, plus some that don't have mirrors in them. It's a dangerous, dangerous place!
