If it's not baroque, don't fix it

I simply love the look of a Rococo mirror...but HATE to pay the price for one (not to mention I don't have the money) They look just so sharp!





This white one is available for 149 pounds (just under $300 dollars US) here.

This gold one is 101 pounds here.


This one is 125 pounds here. Notice that there aren't many oval rococo mirrors available in north america?

This hollow plastic frame can easily support a pane of thin mirror and is only $39.99 at Ikea. Glass quotes ran roughly around $18-28 in Vancouver. Bam. The whole look for less than $70 canadian!

With melamine paint its easy to make it any colour you wish. Imagine a bright yellow on a blue or dark grey wall...



Entry hall or walk-in closet suits this mirror best I think.
