Small spaces can be the most important connectors in a home. I shopped my house this weekend and finally moved this little cutie of a mirror into the back entry. It was a Facebook Marketplace find from a couple years ago, and I’ve styled it in a few different rooms since but I can’t believe it took me this long to realize it belonged here. The shape, the scale, that tiny finial at the base… it’s so unique! This back entry is a small corner of the house, but it plays an important role. It bridges the gap between the cozy TV room and the kitchen, and when I designed it, it felt a little risky. I knew I’d eventually want to renovate the kitchen, but that timeline was very fuzzy. My goal was for this space to act as a true connector. Something that felt cohesive no matter what happened on either side. This year, I’d love to add crown molding now that I know how to do it (dangerous knowledge), and I may repaint the trim to match the kitchen cabinets exactly. It’s close right now but different enough to bother my Type A brain just a bit. 😅 Swipe to see how far this space has come → beforeandafters wallpaperideas smallspaces interiordesign secondhandstyle
