before and after

Boring wall in my living room before. It was like this for a full year. I hate compromising and I knew what I wanted to get.
Awesome antique tile mirror. I found a company that makes these from salvaged tin ceiling tiles while I was at a flea market in New York 3 years ago. I've coveted them forever and finally bought 2 this fall.

Tada! New bookshelf, antique glass lamps and blue vase. My mom put this together over the weekend for me. Excuse the flash and terrible lighting; I do get good natural lighting in my room but the sun had set already.

Mirror detail. See more amazing this like this here


The lamps were unbelievably $5 each at a flea market, and the vase was $3.50 - I almost cried when I found them. I'm on a quest for shades today.
