Poetic Frenzy's Profile

@KMK355 -- creative low-tech... There's a picture hanger with "teeth" on the back of this mirror. I screwed two small eye-hooks into the wood on the inside of the medicine cabinet door, then looped a string through each of the eye-hooks and around the hanger-teeth. Tied the knots on the inside of the cabinet. The string is thin enough that the cabinet door can still latch closed. I also put cork strips on the back of the new mirror's frame so it doesn't bang against the mirror in the medicine cabinet when I close the door. The new mirror happens to be about the same size as the medicine cabinet door. And, it's not very heavy.

My last move (in 2008) was difficult and not by choice -- I was forced to leave the lovely 1915 duplex in Minneapolis that I'd been renting for 10 years because my landlord fell into foreclosure. When it was empty, I photographed the architectural details and finishes that made it "home." Leaded glass windows, an ornate kitchen radiator, a delicate bedroom light fixture painted with pastel flowers, the remaining push button light switch... and, of course, the "cracked ice" red Formica kitchen countertops. I looked through the photos again last week -- they made me smile, and miss my old house.
