Mirrors are great for so many reasons—they reflect the light, they open up spaces, and they just make rooms look better in general. But before you start hanging them into left, right, and center, there are some things to keep in mind. Here are a few tips on how to decorate with the mirrors.
Mirrors can be modern, traditional, edgy, and classic—pretty much anything. It all depends on the frame. Consider what effect you want to create within when choosing a mirror in a frame. A beautiful Chinoiserie mirror will have a far different effect on a room than a simple wooden frame. There is also the mirror itself, smoky glass and antique mirrors with imperfections can be very moody and greatly contribute to the look of a space. Decore your home with beautiful mirrors.
A small nail hammered into the wall would not cut it. Use proper wall hooks or picture hangers and be sure to use two (one at either end). This will ensure that the mirror is held flat to the wall. A wire hung on a single hook is not only dangerous but it can also cause the mirror to rest against the wall at an angle, distorting the reflection. If the mirror is very heavy have it hung by professionals. Do not be afraid to create a gallery wall with mirrors. Like with any photo wall, treat them as a one unit when deciding on placement. That said, a mirrored gallery wall will look best in a room with the little clutter. All of the frames can be visually busy—add that to a small, cluttered room and it could be too much.
Mirrored furniture has gone through a few periods of popularity. While it can be great for reflecting the light and elongating walls, don’t use it in a room that has a lot going on.
