Mirror Over The Mantle

why is it always the hardest to shop for your own home? i've been slowly searching for a mirror to go over our mantle in the family room. we don't want to put our tv up there and frankly, it would be a really tight squeeze even if we did. i know i wanted a round mirror that was pretty casual and thought about one from this post. here is the space i'm talking about (please excuse crappy iphone pic and no, the tv is not staying there!):

but something was making me hesitate (maybe b/c the husband was making it known that he is not a fan of that mirror). so i found myself browsing at no. four eleven and saw this:

cool octagon shape, recycled wood, and as luck would have it, the perfect size. what do you think? price isn't bad either! btw, this could look equally good in an entry or on a bathroom wall.
