Mirror Mirror on the Wall

Mirrors are great for adding light, an illusion of more space, and character to a room. Here are a few spaces where mirrors have been used to enhance the room:


Layering the mirrors







































I love the use of the small round mirrors on each side of the bed - a great alternative to art work.

The large mirrors in the two next pictures help the space to feel open and so much larger.













I had never thought about layering the mirrors and mounting them on the wall, like shown below. Very creative!

    I find myself using mirrors in most of my spaces. I love the variety of shapes and styles, they do add a lot to a room. I am especially loving large floor length mirrors propped up against the wall like inspirations 8 and 9.

Sitting Room Design

By
 Hi there!  Today I am sharing a front living/sitting room that I am currently working on with a client. The process began by meeting at my client's home and seeing the space in person.  During the consultation, my client was able to tell me what she used the room for, how much seating she wanted, the look she wanted to achieve, her thoughts on possible color schemes, and what she envisioned for the space.  I asked some additional questions, and took pictures & measurements.  With those measurements I created a 2D and 3D floorplan for furniture placement, and then got her approval before proceeding any further.

Currently, we are in the...

My Favorite Way to Hide Toys in My Family Room

We were is desperate need of something to hide toys in our family room.  In addition, I really needed something to go along the back our loveseat.  Below, is basically the view you get when you walk into our home.  I didn't want people to walk in & the first thing they see is the bare back of our loveseat. One day, I was meandering around TJ Maxx & spotted this cute storage ottoman.  Right away, I knew it needed to come home with me! It has proved to be a fantastic purchase for us!  My kids can easily get toys in & out of it.  It is also a very convenient place to sit & put your shoes on before heading out the door.  In addition, it can easily be moved around to the main sitting area if extra seating is ever needed. You KNOW you have made a good purchase when your husband has said TWICE, "Melissa, buying that ottoman was a really good idea."  Need some other ideas on how to hide toys?   Cute baskets/bo...
