I bought a thrift store mirror the other day that I was dying to make-over for my living room.
{pretty, not my style but I love the size of the mirror and the chunkiness of the frame}
I painted it with Benjamin Moore's Covington Blue, semi-gloss.
{love love love this color}
{oh, I might need to clean the mirror!}


 I added big black wood knobs. 


The knobs add interest to the mirror.


Also, above my mantel I used to only have the little round mirror and I knew the wall called for something more substantial so I added the big mirror behind the little mirror. It really brightens up the room.
{the big mirror was on the wall that I added the new blue mirror}


I always add a fun mirror to a wall if I get really stuck on how to decorate it.

  1. You have, quite possibly, one of the cutest homes I have ever seen! I love how you have used so many bright colors. Yet, it doesn't look like a clown threw up all over the place. Your design is very well executed , fabulous job!

  2. Love the house, love the look. I'm a new reader, and I have to say, I love your house! Your yellow walls are remarkably similar in shade to my own (I love the shade, and have used it in two houses). And that green coffee table? Oh. My. Goodness. I love the table! I've got five children and so I love how family friendly your home is. Thanks for sharing!
