…mirror love.

June 16, 2014 by christen | 2 Comments

We have some dear, old friends building their dream home right next door to us. Kelly & Kristin’s dad gave me my first job working backstage at Wolf Trap, which is an outdoor concert venue nestled on a National Park. Beautiful! The highlight for me was meeting Tony Bennett in person. Now their mother is picking furniture for me! Terry brought me this beautiful, gilt mirror that I refinished.

I paint most of my mirrors in French Linen. It will always look classy and work in most rooms. Chalk Paint loves detail so that helps too. Love this little bow.

The mirror sold right after I posted it on Facebook. I tend to post pictures before writing about pieces here so if you have not “Liked” Blue Egg Brown Nest on FB then join me there!
