I think this is the right place to suggest this. Remember that mirror that we had in the smaller head-less lounge? Is there a chance at moving it to the bigger lounge where it will get more use for AC 10? Or getting another so there is one in the bigger headless lounge?

The mirror is a wonderful idea and a nice thing to have, but somehow I'd think it more practical to have it set up in the main headless lounge, the bigger one.

We had a mirror in the smaller Headless Lounge?

If we did, then it is something that is owned by the Westin. We couldn't just take it and carry it out of the building.

I didn't know that was a Westin Mirror. I had assumed it was one bought for AC, since you had talked about it with someone before the last AC, in the forums about the subject.

I did find a few places where you can get unbreakable ones. That's in my edited post below.

We have kept discussing the purchase of a solid 'unbreakable' full-length mirror for the Headless lounge, and I think the board at one point authorized the purchase, but we've just not done it yet. Tsk on us.

Trp, if you can do some hunting online for us and find one for purchase (Or, any other interested parties), we'll see what we can do if one is found for a reasonable price.

Ooooh....I thought the one that was in the smaller lounge...I though you all went out and bought one and stuck it in there. My apologies.

Hm....So it needs to be a solid, unbreakable full length mirror? I would imagine it would have to be something decently portable? I wouldn't mind looking to see what I can turn up. I don't know what kind of minimum and max budget for such a thing AC will have. If I turn up something I'll link it here.

EDIT: When you say full length, is there any chance you could give me some average dimensions to look for? I'm not sure what "Full length" translates into.

EDIT: Found something neat: http://www.mirrorworld.co.uk/AcrylicGlassMirrorStainlessSteelSafteyMirror/AcrylicGlassMirrorStainlessSteelSafteyMirror.asp

You can calculate desired dimensions here: http://www.mirrorworld.co.uk/catalogue/calculator6.asp

I found that they offer a custom size 1.00 x 2.10 Meter (I think that is a decent size looking at the scale) Acrylic glass mirror for ....how do I do that conversion? Okay if I am right and the conversion is from UK pounds to USD, than it's $306.781.

For 1.00 by 2.00 Meters its: $293.88

for .80 by 2.00 Meters it's $243.369

This is assuming I am doing my conversion right. It's be nice but it would mean only one person would be able to use it at a time.

I found this: I don't know if the dimensions are good enough: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/78271400
$19.00 for this one. For this you could buy multiple's and put them up against the wall and people can look at one side then look at the other and it would mean more than one suiter could use a mirror. That is if the dimensions are good and I don't know exactly what you staff have in mind.

They want around $100.64 for it. It's 13" x 48"

For $139 there is this 13" wide x 48" high one: http://www.modernfurniturewarehouse.com/acrylic-mirror.html
It looks the same as the one above...perhaps the only difference is that this one comes with a manufacturer's

warranty. Or at least it is stated it does for this one.

This I think is the same as the other two, just without the extra parts/frame, and it could easily be stood up vertical: http://www.worthingtondirect.com/school_furniture/early_childhood_furniture/0618JC_24_X_48__WALL_MIRROR.htm?utm_source=yahooshopping&utm_medium=productfeed&utm_campaign=product
Cost is $101.95
