Shaker Wall Hung Mirror
This is a 17 x 26 inch beveled mirror that someone gave to my mother-in-law. It had an ugly oversized frame that was broken and poorly made. So she offered it to me and I decided to toss the frame and make a new one. I settled on a shaker wall hung mirror design made of alder with a trans-tint dye stain and clear poly finish.

I have always liked Shaker furniture and accessories. There is great appeal in the straightforward lines and shapes, often mistakenly referred to as "simple". One does well to remember that living "simply" in the Shaker tradition meant devoted commitment to humility, self-discipline, compassion, and functionality.
This mirror is a thing of beauty, falling well with the "simple" lines of it's Shaker traditions.
Well done.
BTW: You get a gold-card pass into heaven for the mother-in-law gift. Way to go!
