Decorating with mirrors

Mirrors can add a truly decorative element to any room or space.  Be it modern or vintage, alone or in groups.  They not only reflect what is happening around us, they visually enhance the space, even lending a touch of beauty.

There is nothing more striking than duplicating mirrors; this is where you use two mirrors opposite each other for a sort of 'infinity' effect.

Another good idea is yo use all different types of framed or unframed mirrors on one wall for a gallery look.  There are some new products on the market; self adhesive mirrors in the shape of frames or old-fashioned hair brushes.  We have ordered these for the shop and they should be with us within a couple of weeks.  We also have a large mirror order arriving next week which includes French inspired mirrors, Venetian mirrors and simple wood frame ones as well.

Summer Houses!

Ok, so it's not even close to being Summer, but as ever I'm an optimist!  No seriously the Spring weather has inspired me think about the possibility of Summer.  Every year I say to my husband, and I quote, "I'm getting a Summer house this year".  I've been saying this for the last nine years!  I so want one, so I think this finally may be the year to do it.  I don't even know if I would use it but I would decorate it beautifully and it would be fabulous to look at.  It will probably be used to store garden paraphernalia, buy hey ho it will look nice.  Check out my inspirations below, and I promise if I get one I'll post the pics for all to see.  Watch this space...
