For Christmas we got my husbands mom a set of 3 KRABB mirrors from ikea. She has the place set up like a little tiki hut paradise, and wanted to bring the waves on the ocean in the home. The other night we came over to help put them up. Good thing because it was defiantly a 3 person job.

Here is the before picture. My husband is getting ready to drill in the first bracket. Jina, my mother-in-law on the right watching.

First mirror up!!! Looks pretty good too, if I don’t say so myself.  Pardon the picture quality. This is my life through the iphone! We do have a digital camera but I never use it.

I’m on the left, Jina on the right. We are taking a break before we measure the first between the waves. Jina found the fish at goodwill. A great find for a set 5 of $5! When she was waiting for the sales rep to take them down for her, at least 4 other people including other sales rep where sad to find they were already taken!

It’s a duo wave! It was starting to come along really great. We did none out of some supplies, but Eric found a way to fix it up so you could even tell.

Now we just need to add the fish between the waves. We set up the mirrors like this because that is how Ikea had them set up. Did i forget to mention that the mirrors where only $9.99 per mirror? Love ikea!

The finished product! Looks great! I know I said this was a 3 person job, but Eric and Jina really did everything. I just marked the walls and took pictures. :)
