I went in closer and this is what I saw! It didn't take long before I knew she would be coming home with me. She looks like a she, doesn't she? I may just have to go back to this sale on Saturday. Half price day. Just to see what else needs to come home with me.
I quickly got out of the shot as I was still in my pj's. Henry on the other hand didn't budge.
She is tall and graceful and I first thought of putting her in my bedroom to balance out the window on one side of my bed. We shall see. She is very heavy so I like leaning her. And I don't want to hide this.
It's on the bottom and oh so pretty. I think she may just get a waxing and a little high light to bring out the appliques. Ha! Waxing and highlights, she is a girl. I sort of like her in her nakedness. What do you all think? Any ideas for how to clean her up?
I picked up a few other things yesterday that I will share later. I have another sale I want to check out today and I need to get moving. But I will leave you with a little sneak peak of some of my other treasures.
Have a great weekend!
What a beautiful find! It's lovely. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty mirror!

Just leaning it against the wall sounds perfect.
Lucky you! Love the detail work. Skipper said to tell Henry he wouldn't move either...don't know what this blog stuff is about but it sure cuts into his petting time.
ReplyDeleteHi Anita,
ReplyDeleteI am envious of your gorgeous mirror! Love it! Good sales have been pretty non existent around here as of late. What do you use for waxing?
Love the mirror, but you're sneak peaks are not nice. :) Can't wait to see what they are. I think I finally know how I am going to do my windows without spending a fortune.
ReplyDeleteYes, she should stay naked!

OMG Anita! that mirror is to die for beautiful. Totally the find of the summer. What a score.
ReplyDeleteNo matter where you put her, she will capture all the attention.
Is that your window in the other photo?
Can't wait to see it all.
