Mirror mirror

If you’re like me, you buy something at the store with the intention of setting it out. One day.

Over the years, you come across the item. You could get rid of it.

Or you could set it out now. But the space just isn’t ready for it. So you wait, knowing one day the space will be ready and this item is going to look great.

That was the case with a collection of chevron mirrors I bought back at my condo when I thought I would be living there forever.

I bought the two smaller mirrors at Target. I wanted three. They only had two, so I grabbed them, thinking I would find a third one at another location.

I found the large- and medium-sized mirrors at Bed, Bath & Beyond. All with the intention of hanging them up. One day.

Well, that day never came at my condo, but the day did come at Goldilocks.

The larger mirror works perfectly on the wall near the entryway. I am a firm believer that a mirror belongs in the entryway, if you have an entryway.

The two smaller pieces fit just right on the half wall behind the front door.

The medium-sized piece works alone in the hall leading into the bathroom.

The mirrors hang on separate walls, but they are close enough to each other to tie the spaces together.

And like I said all those years ago, the room would be ready for the mirrors. One day. And today was the day.
