Sometimes You Need to Reflect.....

Have you got a lot of mirrors just unhanging around waiting for a place to call home?

Well here a few possibilities....



    


Mirrors bring light into the room with their reflective properties. So, if you have a dark room or narrow hallway for example, bring in a mirror. The mirror can, in a way, be like a window bringing light into a space.

Using mirrors as artwork can really make a a room stand out. The room below has used old windows casings to frame the mirrors. You can see how such a simple idea can become the centrepiece of the room. Throw in the colours of the round carpet and the flower arrangement and voila!

If you have several mirrors try combining them! Add in a few pictures and see what you can create. In the picture on the left they have even used empty picture frames to tone down the look. Whatever you decide to do, remember to consider the balance of your display.
                  


Mirrors can give a room depth.
 As you can see in these pictures, the mirrors reflect other parts of the room opening them up to display architectural detail and make the space feel more open and interesting.       .

When using mirrors in traditional places, 
such as bathrooms and bedrooms, try a different shape or frame.

Mirrors are not just for walls. 
They can be used in furniture, and, well, even ironing boards!

Mirrors aren't just for indoors, how about in the yard?
