Mirrors and Fireplaces

I know it has been a few weeks since I last blogged, but…..Happy 1 month Anniversary to us! That's right, Joseph and I have been in our beautiful house for a whole month. Within the last few weeks we've moved, started renovating, and already making new memories.  On moving day the guys decided to take down a 4 ft tall mirror from above one of our fireplaces. Now, needless to say it did take 5 grown men to do so but, we got it down! 

After taking this mirror down we discovered a surprise! This is original hand painted wall paper from the 1920's. Who knows how long this was covered? 

I really want to cut out a piece of this and frame it. I would like to keep it up (not really) but I do want to keep some of the memories and character from our beautiful home. 

I hope that I can save some of this. 

Since we're Talking about fireplaces…

First Fire in our new house!
