My Place & Yours : My Collection

This weeks theme for  My Place & Yours was chosen by Kate at Foxs Lane and the fabulous topic she has chosen is My Collection(s).  There are lots of things I love to pick up on my travels - old stools, cushions, tins, wine barrels, pyjamas, fabric, buttons - the list is long, but my latest fascination is mirrors.  I have picked up a mirror from almost every garage sale I've been to this year! Sadly, we don't have room to hang them all, so I've been alternating them every now & then.  I'm really tempted to make a mirror feature wall, but I'm not sure if it might look a bit creepy somehow...what do you think?  Here are a few favourites....

  4. Your mirror collection is amazing! Do you collect small ones as well? I guess you have to be careful with them all as you don't want that seven years of bad luck...just joking. I"m not really superstitious! thanks for sharing xo

  10. Yep go for the mirror wall. Better than having to store any of your gorgeous mirrors because of lack of space.
