Reflections / 246

Can you walk past a mirror without looking – eg. the mirror in the elevator, shop window that reflects, in a department store? I can’t help it, it happens automatically. A bit silly perhaps or even a bit vain. Glancing for a quick check, you know. I sometimes think that my three boys, one of which is my husband, are completely obsessed. They would use their time in front of the mirror all day long if they could decide, believe me. (Isn’t it a common ailment in our society today?) I often find myself sitting & waiting for them to be done, when we’re going somewhere. Once it becomes my turn, the expectation is that I should I be ready in three minutes … patience is a virtue! (Which is another thing we seem to lack a bit in our society). Anyway, appearance comes before everything else. Nothing wrong with that, first impression & so on.

So, moving on, there are lots of stylish mirrors, for those who not only want to look on themselves in the mirror, but also are fond of design too. Lots of different styles, colors, shapes & materials. Mirrors that can occupy an entire wall, or small round with nice details. Or just plain, simple with bevelled edge. You just have to pick & choose among all the varieties. Mirrors are nice, take a look yourself :)

Make up spot / 142

Hej friends,

We have three bathrooms & one would like to think that it’s more then necessary for a family of four. Yet it takes time for the other three in the family to be ready. They could be standing in front of the mirror, for ever, if they could, beleive me. There are hair dryers, hair straightener, gels, spray, earrings, eye liner … well, you name it. I haven’t even mentioned their problems to choose outfits yet. And these three, is thus my two sons & my dear husband. No teenage girls, as one might think.

Anyway, it’s all right during the week, by all means, as we all have different times. But on weekends it is a constantly bickering. It’s bad enough having to wait for them to be done, but even worse that when they are ready to go, they go out to the car & sits down to wait three seconds before they start sound the horn … just when I finally have got access to the bathroom. Well, maybe I just should be grateful because they care about how they look. Who knows…

Given my small everyday concerns, I have been looking up different expressions on dressing table that might inspire you. Not that I think I’d have the place in peace. Since my youngest son often looks through my makeup bag, he would love the idea of a make-up spot:)
