Good Morning and Happy Wednesday! How is your week going? Are you surviving the Summer heat? I have been going to the pool everyday. It has been the ideal way to keep cool and refreshed this week.
In-between dips in the pool, I have been re-organizing and moving things around in our home. I am constantly moving things to make our home more comfortable and cohesive for a small space. One way I did that in our living room was by Adding a Mirror To Create More Space.
Don’t get me wrong, our living room is the perfect size for the two of us. But I am always looking for innovative ways to create a larger, open space.
This is the view as I sit on our sofa. I like it. It looks inviting and comfortable, right?
BUT, while I was out thrifting and found this large mirror.
The creative juices started flowing. I could hang that mirror above the book-case, to create more space in our living room. I knew for a fact I wanted to paint it. (I know, BIG surprise, right???) I chose Summer Sonnet.
You will also notice that I purchased a new chair. This one doesn’t have arms, which creates more space as well. But that is for a post next week…
When I purchased the mirror, it was completely apart from the frame and back. (I am sad I don’t have a picture-I was cleaning out my picture file a little too much, I guess)
BUT, with A LOT of Gorilla Glue and Liquid Nails, I was able to adhere the mirror, frame and back together for a functioning mirror.
Our living room now looks more open. The mirror has also added more height in the room.
I am loving our new mirror. But most of all. Adding a Mirror To Create More Space was a great choice in our living room.
I hope you have been inspired today. Whether it was to shop at thrift stores, or adding a mirror to your home, I hope you leave here ready to create your own personal space.
Thanks for being here and make it a wonderful Wednesday.

Tami,
Thanks so much. I appreciate YOUR comments :) I love having you here.
This is such a great idea Meegan! I love mirrors too and use them a lot in my decorating, usually propped up so I can move them to another location when I want to! Yours looks great above your shelf display – perfect spot!! Have a great evening ;)
Thanks so much Cindy. I love your taste and style. Thanks for stopping by. It made my day!
What a neat idea!
Great idea! Mirrors definitely make a huge difference in a room. :)
