Mirror collections....

I've started collecting vintage mirrors and have them lined up along the wall until I decide where to hang them. I like the old crochet clothes hangers and found a nice batch at a sale. The cake/pie carries were just sort of an accident...I bought one and liked it so well so I bought another. I think I'll keep an eye open for a third....maybe more if I find something that catches my eye.

This just happened to be sitting like this on the floor until I find a place for everything...I thought it looked good just as it is for a photo!

I'm linking with Beyond the Garden Gate Visit her blog and join in on the fun!

Thanks Tete!

  1. Welcome to the party! Love, love, love your collections!
    The mirrors are wonderful! I love them.
    Don't you just wonder about the lady who took the time to cover her hangers?
    I often look at pieces and picture busy hands working to make her little world more special.
    The cake carriers are a great way to hide things! And they look so cool.
    I know you will find a third and maybe even a fourth before long!
    Thanks for taking part and bringing some more fun to the blog party!
    Hope to see you next time, too!
    Hugs- Tete

  2. You've got several great collections there-somewhere I saw a wall with these kind of mirrors. I've got a couple of those pie/cake carriers-they're neat, but I never kind figure out what to do with them! You've got some goodies!
