I've lived with just one mirror for years until my eldest sister came to visit and commented how our home has no mirror at all (she means a big or full length mirror). The only mirror we had was that of the bathroom's which was the medicine cabinet's mirror that allows you to see your reflection from the chest and up. For her sake, I got a full length one that I attached at the back of our bathroom door. That was not enough, she also suggested that I get a mirror to put on a small space over the kitchen sink. She said that if I should be doing chores in the kitchen, and the doorbell rings, I could first take a look at myself in the mirror before answering the door. That really amused me. Actually, she is a girly-girl, and before she goes out to the world she makes sure she is all put together. I am exactly the opposite. I can actually jump out of the shower, dress up and go wherever without combing my hair. I always say that by the time I get to where I am going, my very straight fine hair will have dried and hanging in its place.
At this point in my life, I am the owner of five big mirrors (excluding the one already hanging in the batroom door)h. Two, I picked up from the streets which I stationed in the garden, another two vintage mirrors I bought from the flea market (pictured below), and one from Big Lots.
I don't spend a lot of time looking at them...but they do help make our little house look a little bigger.

| these fans are now in exile at the Poconos. Steve once threatened to cut their wires off as the encasement are not safe for wandering (little) hands. They have actually caught two big hands from two different people leaving a nick on each. But these fans are adorable and they work so well in spite of their age. |
