Looking for a New Mirror

 Several years ago my sister-in-law bought us a mirror.  It's really pretty, with flowers etched in the glass.  It hangs by our front door where it's really convenient.  In the mornings when I'm putting on my hat or headband to go walking I can check to make sure I look at least sort of presentable, and the same goes for when someone rings the doorbell.  The problem is that the mirror is getting old and doesn't look as nice as it used to, so we've been thinking that it's time for a new one.  We just haven't found the perfect one yet.

I haven't decided if I'd like a bronze bathroom mirror to put there or maybe something with a black or a wood frame.  I haven't even decided what shape I want - rectangle like I have now or an oval like that bronze one.  We've even thought about seeing if we can find a mirror with coat hooks along the bottom of the frame.  Wouldn't that be perfect for an entry-way?  Since our front coat closet always seems to be full of our own coats, it would give us a convenient place to hang visitors' coats and also help ensure they don't forget them when it's time to go home.

I've been looking through all these bathroom mirrors - modern collection so I don't know that I'd find anything with coat hooks, but I have found some really nice looking mirrors.  With so many mirrors to choose from, I think finding the perfect one is going to be harder than I first thought!  I'm pretty sure that I'll know it when I see it, though.  There's one that already caught my eye because the style is similar to our new windows.  I'm not sure that's exactly what we're looking for, but I do like it.

If you're looking for a new mirror, be sure to check out all of them available at BathroomMirrorsDirect.com.  It looks like they have something for every taste and every room, and shipping is FREE.  They've got some nice information about how to choose the right mirror for your room, so I think I'm going to go read that and see if it helps.  It's either that or I browse through all of them waiting for the right one to jump out and grab me.  That's how I usually shop, but with so many to choose from, I could be looking for a long time.

  1. What you could do is put a couple extra hangers in your front closet. I had to hang my sweatshirt over another coat the other day!
