Collection: Vintage etched mirrors circa 1920's
Description: Properly displaying a collection is almost just as important as the collection itself, and we think moxie-girl's collection of vintage 1920's mirrors is a great example of incorporating a collection into the surrounding home decor as a compliment, not an eyesore. No surprise that a self proclaimed "estate sale junkie" (being owner of Shop at Moxie) would find herself in the possession of such a varied and lovely collection of reflective pieces....

 
 

"Most of these have been found over the years while on road trips...I don't think we have ever paid over 40 dollars for any of them. Sometimes the edges are chipped up and most of them have distress to the mirroring. I kind of like them best this way.

I am truly not one to look in a mirror if I don't have to so this is a pretty funny collection for me to have. I do not look at myself while I am going upstairs that's for sure!! "

I don't agree. The whole mirror thing along the stairwell seems very grandma to me and creeps me out. I would never survive walking up the stairs at night in the dark.

While I quite like this now, I was absolutely terrified of mirrors for most of my childhood. I might have to chime in with ckayindc on this one.
