Step 1 - diagram
Step 2 - Measurements (at least 2 or 3 times)
Step 3 - Measurements with Ciara, marking the wall, then measuring again at least 3 times for accuracy
Step 4 - Confirming the diagram with measurements
Step 5 - Drilling in the screws (he actually just twisted them in and it took less than 1 minute to put both of them in the wall
...moment of truth
Step 6 - Mounting the mirror
Step 7 - Stepping back to see if it was even
...PERFECTION!
Ok, so I have faith in the Lyle, but I really thought this would be more complicated than it was. I thought it would take an hour (plus) to put this thing up. Not so my friends...all in all from start to finish it probably took 45 minutes tops. I was impressed (as was he...he was so cute about it).
He is screwing in the hooks

WE have a mirror like that...wall furniture I mean! Matt made my Dad hang it for him, so major props go out to Lyle, because we definitely would not have been able to do that!
Ciara ... the mirror looks great! Atta Boy Lyle!
Love Mom!
Cici, your mirror looks so nice!!
Hello! A friend of ours saw your blog via another blog...and asked me if we were related to you guys. She's been giving us a hard time for not doing our own blog and said she was going to pretend your blog was ours :) Anyway, we live in the Bay Area of California and our last name is Schofield, too!!! I wonder if we're related?! Drop us a note...
