I have been busy tucking hearts around the house today, and each one is to show my love for my wonderful family and friends. In my heart, I know which heart is for that special person in my life.
You may recall this post from the Mackenzie-Childs Barn Sale when I met my dear blogging friend Patti from Pandora's Box. She worked at the Barn Sale, and I was so happy we got to meet.
Patti is a MacKenzie-Childs collector and an artist who has mastered painting checks. I painted a vintage wheelbarrow in black and white checks this past summer, and I can tell you that it requires skill (and patience). Patti was my mentor of course ;o)
Recently, I was visiting Patti's blog and she shared a Chippendale Mirror that she found at an auction, and posted the updated version here. I am giddy as a kid to be greeted by this fun mirror when I walk through the front door.
This photo was taken before I did my Valentine's makeover on the shelf. I will have so much fun decorating my entry way now that I have this beautiful mirror to brighten up the area.
Thank you for stopping by! I am joining The Tablescaper for Seasonal Sunday and the Cozy Little House for Tweak It Tuesdays. If you are interested in the giveaway I am having, there is still time to let me know. Here is the post.
It looks perfect in your entry way....I am on the hunt for more mirrors like this! Thanks for the "shout out"!

ReplyDeleteThat mirror is so pretty in your foyer! It looks perfect, and I know you are happy that Patti sold it to you. She did an amazing job on it. This is going to sound weird, but I think I met you at the barn sale. I just thought of it. Did you meet Patti at Dori's? (Please don't think I'm weird....)

Oops! I saw the word "Chippendale" and my mind immediately went somewhere else with a completely different kind of Chippendale!!! ;-) OK...now I'm back on track! Congratulations on nabbing this great mirror! It works so well with your Mackenzie-Childs decor! Neat idea to tuck little love hearts all around for different family members, too. That's really sweet! Have a great week, Debbie!
ReplyDeleteHI Debbie! Oh, the mirror looks marvelous! I would love seeing something that pretty each time I walked by!
