Through the Looking Glass







I love all these beautiful dressing tables and mirrors - I can't think of a lovelier place to sit and put on make-up!

    Oh how pretty, Leigh...all of them. and they all look so light, great for putting on make up. If I'm going out, it's not that bright where I put my make up on. One of the downsides of a Victorian house !! XXXX

    Bonjour Leigh,
    I agree with Frenchy, I feel so girlie sitting in front of my vanity mirror - though somedays that reflection is not so girlie as it used to be!! They say laughter keeps you young!:)
    Beautiful images as usual!

    Oh I am a sucker for a gorgeous mirror. I tend to use mirrors as art as well (more than art)... timeless. Every room, I have a mirror. A-M xx

    Very interesting subject for a post! Your inspirations are gorgeous.
    I am going to redecorate my dressing table soon. Picture number 3 provides the idea how I can transform my boring dressing table into a nice one. Thank you!!

    My favorite is #1...LOVE IT! Actually Love them ALL!

    I have an 1940's antique bedroom suit, one of the pieces is a low 5 drawer dresser with a beveled round mirror...I have been blessed to own it for almost 20 years and everyday I'm lovin' it more and more!

    Thank you again for providing us with a trip into the beautiful world of Brabourne Farm!

    Wow. So pretty. I love especially the first two and that last one. I just love old frames so, so much. I tend to layer them like that last shot. You know, I love dressing tables, and yet I don't have one. I put my makeup on in the bathroom, which I hate doing. I need to take inspiration from these shots, don't I? Thanks, lovely Leigh!

    Mirrors do wonders for decor, don't they? I especially enjoyed the photo of multiple mirror on the vanity. Very creative, will have to keep that in mind. Thanks for the inspiration! Have a great week!
