Mirrors are great decorating tools and come in all sizes, shapes and styles. Mirrors are favorite wall decor for reflecting light in just the right space and at the same time become exquisite wall art when framed in scrolls of iron or carved wood designs.

Decorating with Mirrors Mirrors are one of the designer's most useful tools. Mirrors increase light in a room with few windows and multiply and distribute the light from existing windows. In the dining room, mirrors reflect candlelight and exaggerate chandelier luminescence. When placed atop a serving buffet, a mirror adds sparkle to all objects placed on top of it. A long mirror incorporated into a dining table centerpiece showcases crystal table appointments. Mirrors make a dining experience unique and special. Reflective qualities are most often the homeowner's major concern when it comes to mirrors, but designers use mirrors by placing them in strategic locations throughout a room's design. In the bathroom left, the scrolled iron mirror highlights a treasured Italian urn. Strategically placed mirrors reflect and draw attention to important decorative objects, art and sculpture. Designers think beyond hanging a mirror in the bath or in the entry foyer. Mirrors can be used in surprising places in rooms throughout the home. Consider placing a tall floor mirror at the end of a long hallway and in the confines of smaller rooms, a large mirror amplifies space and makes the room appear larger. A decorative mirror completely changes the ambience of the bathroom. Replacing a vanity to ceiling mirror with decorative framed mirrors or mounting the decorative mirrors on top of the larger mirror creates an updated designer look in the bathroom.
