Abstract
A mirror is pivotally mounted to an interior surface of a cabinet door. The mirror has a first reflective surface and a second surface. A hinge interconnects the second surface of the mirror and the interior surface of the cabinet door for allowing the mirror to pivot with respect to the interior surface between a first position wherein the second surface of the mirror is positioned proximate the cabinet door interior surface and a second position wherein the second surface of the mirror is positioned away from the cabinet door interior surface. When the mirror is in the first position the cabinet door can be closed to place the mirror out of view from the exterior of the cabinet and when the cabinet door and the mirror are in the second or open position, the mirror is positionable such that the mirror can be squarely viewed from the exterior of the cabinet.
