Thanks again Nicole! Tough decision with great options. At first I liked the table idea, then I realized a mosaic on a horizontal surface would be more difficult to read multiple picture/word details. It seems chunks of color blocking are better on a flat surface?
If it stands or hangs vertically it will be positioned to be viewed. A framed picture might get lost in the mosaic - unless that is the intent to incorporate it? A mirror is usually hung at eye level which would be viewed more often to appreciate the details. Every time Allyson would look in that mirror, she would see her friends and memories surrounding her mirrored image. And her reflection would show her how far she's come from those memories. That's nice.
What does everyone else think? We need to decide by the end of this weekend! Please vote!
