Mirror mirror on the wall … of every room in the house, even the “outdoor rooms.” What room couldn’t be improved with a stylish new mirror to open up the space, add light and polish? During the spring and summer months, when the curtains are open and it’s beautiful outside, your mirrors will help draw the outdoors in. (during the deepest dark days of winter, you will have to be happy with reflected candlelight)
Break away from the expected over-mantel treatment and try adding a mirror:
- On your front or back porch or patio wall.
- In an empty fireplace during summer months, reflecting candles or objects placed in the recess.
- In a gallery wall collection using various shapes and sizes, featuring different frames or borders.
- Hung directly onto a large window.
- Large mirrors can be propped up against the wall, used as a headboard, behind a sofa, etc.
- In your guest bathroom instead of a medicine cabinet.
- Always in your entry and in your powder room.
Pairs of mirrors are even better than singletons! And we love the layered look and contrast of an elaborate mirror hung on a mirrored wall. Beautiful photos of these ideas and more in this House Beautiful article and in this story on ElleDecor.com.
