I hope you’re all enjoying the wonderful weather we’re having! Lol
All kidding aside I hope everybody is safe as weather all over the world is a little crazy right now.
The snow has stopped here in Southern Ontario and I’m hunkered down in front of the fire with my laptop.
I was at the Salvation Army this week and found this lovely mirror. I took it out of the garage today and introduced it into the dining room.
I took out my white frame and coffee filter wreath I had in there from Christmas and replaced it with
my thrift find.
.
I have two armoires in the dining room that I use to house extra plates, platters and dishes that the kitchen doesn’t have room for.
The square basket is a file holder and holds all our files and the round basket is filled with magazines.
My daughter has told me no more plates! She says we don’t have anymore room! Do you think there is a problem?! lol
I gave this wooden frame a wash of white primer, let it dry and gave it a light sanding.
I couldn’t help but add a pic of lavender that I have on top of my armoires. I love lavender.
I took out some of the winter themed accessories and spruced up the room with some lovely dried hydrangeas.
Hydrangeas are another love.
I think the mirror picks up on the wood of the dining room table and helps tie the room together.What do you think?
Be blessed!

I like it! The wood of the mirror frame, the table and the baskets really warm up the blue and white. Comfy space.
(I've got a give-away going on over at Chestnut Tree Lane if you want to pop over!)
Hello, what a stunning room, looks beautiful.
I think your dining room looks fabulous!! The mirror looks great, and it does tie the room together. I love your lavender too!I know the feeling we never have enough dishes.

Oh, I love your new mirror, Kim! It's beautiful!! I love how you gave it a light white wash with primer and sanded it off. Whitewashing is a favorite wood treatment of mine!
Hope you have a wonderful day!

Your dining room is so pretty…I love how you put the two armoires together so it looks like one large cabinet and how you put the things across the top just like it was one piece. The mirror and the hydrangeas are beautiful additions to the room…it just beautiful and so fresh looking. I'd love to hang out in that room! You are so full of great ideas!
Problem …. what problem, lol!
Lovely!

I absolutely love everything about your dining room! I really want to change mine – it's currently red – and I love the look of yours. Those armoires are so pretty. Love it all!!

what color is on your walls? I am thinking about repainting my ding room walls and this looks exactly what i am looking for! Merci..
Kim that's a great Goodwill find and a sizeable mirror – hope you got a good price. Works very well with your table and baskets. Love your styling as usual.
I think I would love to transport your dining room and plop it straight down in my house! There are so many elements in this room that I love (for example the twin armoires).
Enjoy your day.

I was just about to blog off. Glad I saw your post. Too many plates…what? I don't see a problem. Ha! Your dining space is so gorgeous with all the textures…wicker, hydrangeas and lavender! The wood mirror looks great with the table and other warm tones in the room. xo ~Michelle 🙂
Pretty dining room. Great idea having two armoires for storage. Love your thrift mirror.
love it and I like the touch of white wash on it as well! Are those hydrangeas really dried? They are so perfect they look silk!
Your dining room is beautiful. I love the armoires. I am hosting my very first linky party. I would love for you to link up this project. Hope you will.
Lovely mirror. I looks perfect there, and does tie the wood from the table in.
Can anyone have too many plates?
Hi Kim! Great find and I like the light white wash that you gave it. I don't think you have a problem at all, in fact there is room for more plates!! 😉 Your dining room is so beautiful.
Wow, the mirror was a great find! It really brings the dining room all together. What a beautiful light and bright room!
The mirror is a great compliment to the rest of your lovely dining room!

I love your style Kim. You really are good at this! The mirror is beautiful with the finish you gave it.
Fabulous job. I love white plates, too. That room seems like a great place to unwind.

The new mirror adds the perfect touch I think! I like the room so much I would love to copy the whole thing!
I think it lovely! Love all the storage too!
Hi Kimberely-
Baskets and Hydrangeas – my #1 and #2 decorative accessories – I have them in every room so you know I am loving your post today.
My best-Diane
I'm so glad you linked up. Again, the dining room is gorgeous.
So,so ,so pretty my sweet friend….love the mirror (and all your plates)!! x0x0x
Looks great! I really like the rustic-ness (if that's a word) of the wood paired with the white pieces you have.
I LOVE the white jug you have on display too – a little envy going on :o)
It all looks so pretty. I especially love the pic you took of the lavender and pitcher in background. Nice job!
Tammy : )
Looks beautiful Kimberly. Love the way you've tied the timber of the table and the mirror frame together. Perfect! I love your hydrangeas too 🙂
That little bit of white wash really makes the mirror blend nicely with everything. I'm a huge fan of hydrangeas also. I would have them everywhere if I could keep them blooming year round. I'm definitely going to dry more this year.
Very pretty dining room! I love how very calm it "feels".
Kimberly, Your dining room is so pretty! The blue paint with the white furniture is very calm and fresh. Great mirror.
Hugs,
Sherry
I think everything looks beautiful. Love your whitewashed mirror.
Stay warm…
YES! It definitely ties the room together! I love it! And your baskets. And your hydrangeas. And your white dishes…. lol!

So fresh and pretty. What a great idea to use two armoires next to each other!
Your dining room is lovely. The armoires are to die for. Yes, I think there is a problem – not enough room in the kitchen. (It's simple really)
Cheers,

I love this entire room–it is just beautiful. The two matching armoires are just so smart. You eye for detail in decorating is amazing. Thank you for inspiring me.

Great find and I just ADORE that large white pitcher!
Love the mirror! But also the cabinets! I have been in search for more storage in my new dining room (old family room) We just don't have enough kitchen storage. I have a few ideas in mind, but nothing seems to be working on the thrifty budget. Anywho, I love your space! Thanks for sharing.
