Hi Everyone
Happy Tuesday

This is the reflection in our  dining room built in china cabinet
I have shown you this cabinet before what I did not tell you
is how I came up with a way to save money too
My little secret
I wanted to put a mirror on the back to help give the illusion  that the room is larger
and to bring the outside in
But the original cost estimate was over $500 for the mirror plus  installation?
Darn budget {very frustrating word}
So I decided to wait until later to get it done....

Three years later still waiting ...

Then shopping at Target
I had a wonderful {cheap} idea
I bought 5 of their least expensive wall mirrors
$7.99  each
 removed the plastic frames and glued the mirrors
one by one together to the
back of the  china cabinet

~$40 dollars and fabulous~

It turned out better than I expected
You can see the pretty reflection 
The room looks so much larger
 the mirrors
elongated the room and
gave it the depth that it needed

and I saved money too.
A design for less success
