mirror, mirror on the wall

i love mirrors. they make rooms appear larger and brighter. two very important qualities! i especially love the idea of a mirrored wall.

using antiqued mirror gives a softer look and laying it down in panels or tiles (without a frame) makes it modern.






would you ever do this in your home? in what rooms do you think it works best?

your thoughts: black and white

this weekend i attended a black and white ball where the girls/women were all beautifully dressed. i was surprised at how many dresses i was ooohing and aahhhing over. the boys/men of course looking perfect in their tuxes. but it got me thinking about black and white decor, and how in it is right now.








do you have black and white in your home? do you think its too severe, so you substitute grey? (aka ME) do you add pops of color to brighten it? what do you think of this “trend”?
