Mirror, mirror on the wall......





The entry in our new home is narrow, with a living room on one side
and hubby's office on the other.  I wanted to define the space
and incorporate proper entry objects - {which included my
cute, narrow, surprise find that I blogged about here}....


I have had this mirror for like......ever!  In our Minnesota cottage
she was in our master bathroom, loved for her large-ness and full-length
look capabilities.

I knew she could make a functional mirror in our narrow entry, all she needed
was to be accessorized!  A trip to "Lowes Depot" scored some 
antique brass hooks.


Less-than handy hubby proved his skills are improving when he
was able to screw these babies in straight and on the first try!


Now our entry has a place for your coat, umbrella or cute clutch!


Next up on the entry "ta-da" list:

* paint the ceiling a pale blue
* paint the french doors to the office and maybe even the 
front door a steel gray or black
* try out a new Dash & Albert rug {maybe black & white stripe}


Happy Saturday everyone!

  1. I love it and think adding the hooks was brilliant and just what the mirror needed. I am totally pinning that idea!

  2. Hooks on a mirror, who would have thought a DIY project but I have one that would work perfectly. We move in Dec and it could use something. Good Brain girl!

  5. Your post felt like deja vu to me because my last post was titled the exact same thing! How bout that? Love your mirror in the foyer and how you made it more functional. That was a clever idea. For more mirror inspiration, come check out my last post on my blog too!
