Nearly all bathrooms have wall mirrors, that's a given. Mirrors are area a basic took in the morning routine and grooming process. Today, mirrors are also very popular decorating pieces for the entire home. Mirrors aren't just utilitarian anymore; they offer a great combination of form and function. Read on for details and ideas for the many design uses for wall mirrors.
When carefully installed and with a touch of creativity, mirrors can transform a room from bland to beautifully designed. In addition to adding style and design, wall mirrors are great for creating the illusion of added space and light. When shopping, your personal taste and preferences should be the deciding factor for the type of wall mirror you finally buy. Of course we all know that mirrors serve functional purposes; however, there are important questions to ask yourself like are you looking for the simplicity of something like silver mirrors or do you want to look at ornate mirrors? Your wall mirrors should coordinate well with the other decorative elements in the room, but it's not necessary for them to match exactly.
There are some styles of mirror that are primarily used for decorative purposes. These mirrors typically have more detailed framing or a very specific type of style, such as contemporary or antique. If you have a rustic-style home, you may want to install a wall mirror with a simple wood framing or if you are looking to emphasize three dimensional objects such as a vase or work of art, place the objects in front of a large wall mirror or transitional mirror like a cheval mirror.
When using mirrors to create the illusion of additional space or light, place them in such a way that they can capture and reflect a large portion of the room or where they can catch light from a window and broadcast it into the space. A brighter room always feels more open and fresh. Good places to use this technique are in tight hallways and small living areas.
Quick Final Tips: Hang smaller wall mirrors around a work of art or photograph for an eclectic look that can be easily changed whenever it suits your mood. Decorative wall mirrors are available in small sizes with fun unique frames. Use them in groups and clusters anywhere in your home to add a quick designed touch. Place a decorative wall mirror by the entryway of your home so you can take a quick look before leaving each day.
As always make safety your priority when installing your new mirror. Work with a partner and follow the manufacturer's instructions closely.
