The Shabby Nest Valspar's Rope is a similar color.

carol2000 Maybe Benjamin Moore hc82. Looks dull on paint chip but makes everything in the room look outstanding.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

added by Becky Harris to Sixteen Perfect Mirrors

This is some hot mirror-on-mirror action. Love it!

added by Becky Harris to Creating a Tablescape

Mirrors are always great over a mantle. I love the way they have propped several different mirrors together here.

added by Kit Pollard to Propped: When Not to Hang

The propped mantle-on-the-mirror is a classic—and with good reason. I like this version, especially, with its neutral colors and double mirrors.

added by Shawn Gauthier to Create Page-Turning Design with Books

Complete your mantle-scape with a stack of antique books. They add a sense of history and authenticity, plus they balance the remaining items on the mantle. Don’t have any old books? Check out your local flea markets or vintage shops. You can find them for a dime.

added by Lisa Frederick to Great Materials: Warm, Wonderful Pewter

This composition is as much about texture as it is about materials. The weathered look and heavy detailing of the pewter vase falls right in step with the books and mirror frames.

added by Rebekah Zaveloff to 7 Areas to Accessorize With Style

5. Mantels. Avoid the temptation to center one large picture or one large mirror smack dab in the center. Layer mirrors or pictures and you can manipulate a stack of books to just the right height to balance out an adjacent object.
