entrez-vous

with the housewarming party upon us (next weekend) we decided it was high time we got around to finishing up some of those decorating things around the house that we've been meaning to do. one of those things was finding a console table and mirror to define our entryway since it is part of the living/dining rooms and rather open instead of a clearly defined space (which i would have preferred, but you can't have everything). we found this lovely table which happened to match our dining table almost exactly, and then i fell in love with this random mirror:


it's a fish. stood on end (that was the way the hangers were). how odd is that? the more i looked at it, the more it grew on me, and i was able to talk brian into it. i don't know if he is as entranced with it as i am, but i love it. it's interesting.

mmmmm, I love it. (it looks like it might be hung too high tho...how tall is that table?)

I like it, too. It's definately interesting and way better than a boring circular or square framed mirror.

i don't know if it is too high... but you can definitely see yourself in it. i can at least. the table is about hip-height (on me) i think? i thought about just leaning against the wall on the table, but i thought that might look strange with the ceilings so high. they are 14' down there and i wanted to take advantage of that.
