Mirrors with Rounded or Arched Tops

You have seen theses mirrors. Irresistable.
The mirror-as-headboard , below, is  a gold  arched-top antique.  
It would look great in any room. But if you can't have that,
 the rounded top gold mirrors are lovely:



same mirror as above,, different angle:

And the Lovely alternatives:










Call it French, Country, Traditional, European, 
Rustic...the gold frame, the antiqued look, is a winner.


Have a great Day!

Setting the Stage for Fine Dining - Design Ideas

Fine dining comes in all shapes, colors, materials, styles, locations, and styles!
Trust me, each image is filled with FINE design ideas
 that will make any gathering a FINE event.

The chandeliers , the table, the fireplace...too fine for words!

Love the bright, the rustic, the antique, mixed.
And the patent leather on the chairs is practical.




Thoughtful, creative displays makes guests feel special, welcomed, and mighty fine:



Fine ~ !

 Very fine elements; cheerfully, eclectically combined:

Location, location, location, with a glass garage door, 
and combined with a glass chandelier. 
Very fine indeed!

Simplicity, mixed materials and textures, and a bit of shine:


The pool, the golf course, the sun, the flowers, the drinks...yep, it's Fine.

Once again we have Location,
 along with plenty of rustic, romantic charm,
  and a view.


A sense of privacy, with the sun, the water, the plants --
 it feels like this spot was arranged for an escape 
with a selected, wonderful group of friends.


A pretty table setting always gets the family excited about dinner -- and grateful to you -- even if you still haven't anything in mind except the 12-Minute Special:  boiled spaghetti with warmed up (any kind of) sauce. Put out a chunk of fine  Parmigiana-Reggiano cheese, chop up a head of  Romaine, add some really good salad dressing, and you are done. Make sure the adults have a nice glass of wine. Light the  candles, stick the breadsticks into  a rustic jar in the middle of the table ...that's FINE dining, folks.




Have a great day!
