It's been a good 20 years since our downstairs bathroom has had a facelift. So it might be about time for some minor remodeling. Like replace the lighting and the mirror, electric cover plates, remove the peel 'n stick wall border that I remember buying at a dollar store close-out etc etc. And it wouldn't hurt to give the bathroom a new coat of paint. (I bought a $5 gallon of a neutral colored Oops Paint at Ace Hardware.) Hey and guess what? The mirror looks all big and heavy in a cast iron frame, right? But it's not, it is big but not heavy - the frame is plastic! But I swear, it doesn't look like plastic and you can only tell if you touch it. And really, how often do you go around touching people's mirrors when you visit someone's house?

Chris that is a beautiful mirror, plastic or not. You are right no one touches other peoples mirrors. If they do and they have an issue...its their issue and you still have a beautiful mirror!
I like it....and wish my teeny bathrooms were big enough for large mirrors. Nice find!
uh oh Deana. Are you saying big mirrors aren't good for teeny bathrooms? If so I am going to be breaking all designer rules. I can touch both sides of my bathroom wall when I stretch out my arms! LOL!
I just wanted to send a note to say that your blogs always make me laugh out loud. I grew up in Boston and sarcasm practically rolls off my lips, so I truly appreciate your style! My husband is in the military and we are stationed down South and they don't do sarcasm so much here:-)
I think that is a great deal! With my yard sale guide, I mention that mirrors are often a great bargain as well as other household accents.
