I group them together to create light and a different view of my home. Like you I am not vain....quite the contrary in fact but I do love them. ornate frames, round, no frame I don't mind. They just have to have something about them that draws me to them. as mine are all old (and often foxed!) I wonder what they have seen.<br /><br />LucyxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14192820043219073127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-54734963523119432392009-08-22T12:46:30.991+00:002009-08-22T12:46:30.991+00:00Hello dear Niki, another stunning post!

I'm sitting looking at them on my very modern screen and above me the modern ceiling 'down light' is reflecting on two of my beautiful, ornate, vintage, golden mirrors on the wall facing me - but above my head height *grin*. I adore them and have a collection going on the wall in my lounge room too - and you know I've gotten some very funny looks and the obvious no comments from some of the empty space lovers - and I just grin to myself - in those instances I take it as a compliment! Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

My husband found an old Eastlake mirror a friend was throwing out, looked like a mantle or something; he added a shelf to it and it is my favorite one! Love your blog!!

As our cottage is small and sometimes a bit dark on grey days I rely on mirrors to bring more light in to the rooms. I like the last framme with fabric in. Something I like doing too.<br />I like seeing the various funny faces my daughter pulls in front of a mirror.<br />Take care<br />Isabelle xSuzy's Vintage Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15355297827117557882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-10036401009003440002009-08-19T15:29:12.996+00:002009-08-19T15:29:12.996+00:00What a stunning collection of mirrors!

The way you hav...Niki, those photos are incredible! The way you have captured the reflections of another beautiful part of your home in each mirror is absolutely amazing. I really enjoyed looking at them.<br /><br />In our house, mirrors are essential for bouncing light around. Traditional southern French houses (and ours is traditional, although not all that old) have windows facing north as much as possible, and have patio roofs shading any windows which face south or west.<br /><br />Thus the bedrooms, which catch the early morning light, are bright enough, but the living areas all have shaded windows and are often gloomy all day. This is a blessing in the heat - the designers knew what they were doing! But it does mean that I'm constantly buying mirrors to bounce yet more light around - it is beginning to work, so I have the perfect excuse to look out for more!Flosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098894367955345944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-1334629078755098112009-08-19T10:52:10.940+00:002009-08-19T10:52:10.940+00:00great post! beautiful mirrors!
