This post may shock and amaze some of you long time readers.
I am actually going to attempt to show you a purchase that I made and I have NOT transformed it in anyway. Yes, I could have made a new Foyer Mirror and trust me when I tell you my brain was working over time thinking of a way that I could take the “way too small mirror” that previously was in the foyer and make it larger. I had an idea or two but in the end I decided that I deserved to go on a shopping trip.
Actually I was scheduled to work the Taylor Swift concert last Friday, so I knew I would have some extra money coming my way. On Wednesday of last week, I went into Charlotte on the hunt for the sole purpose to find a new foyer mirror and I found one! It cost a bit more than I had anticipated spending but I knew from last years Taylor Swift concert I would have more than enough in my paycheck to cover it.
Of course you have all heard the expression, “Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.” Well, my friends, here’s a new one, “Don’t spend your money before you make it!” …….On the way home from my new extravagant purchase, over the radio I hear the DJ announce that the Taylor Swift concert for Atlanta and Charlotte have been post-pone due to an illness…… yes, that is my luck! Oh I do know better but that is why I have an emergency fund. WHAT? you agree with me that this mirror has fallen into the emergency category.
Now that I know you have my back….. let’s see the mirror
I found this mirror at the second HomeGood store that I visited in Charlotte.
The previous mirror. Come on… you gotta agree that I NEEDED a large foyer mirror?
Now all I need to do is transform this old mirror and find it a new home.
This one really demands attention when you enter the house!
You can spy a few new projects on my to-do list in the refection. I am currently prepping the stairway rail and newel post for restaining, restaining the console table, and the faux plant is getting ready for an update and a new home!
