Mirrors are beautiful, functional, and versatile pieces to use in any room. Picking out a few statement mirrors from your local furniture store and using them properly can instantly transform your home. Make the most of your new pieces by utilizing some interior designer-approved strategies for mirror décor.

Furniture Store Guide to Mirror Decorating

1. Build a Gallery Wall

furniture storePeople traditionally think that they should not have more than one mirror per room. However, this is an unnecessary “rule.” An entire display of mirrors can open a room while creating an interesting statement. Use different sizes and shapes on a wall or along a hallway. To tie it all together, simply choose one feature that all the mirrors have in common. For example, you may have mirrors of different shapes and sizes, but they all have black frames.

2. Bring in the Light

Mirrors reflect light, so use that to brighten up a space. Place the mirror opposite a window or a light fixture, and you’ll find that your space instantly becomes brighter. Natural light in particular is effective in making a room more cheerful and can make it feel larger, so target windows whenever possible.

3. Create a Focal Point

Every room needs one focal point, or something that the eye is immediately drawn to upon entering the room. Mirrors create an instant one, especially when they are dressed up with something else. For example, you can hang a mirror on the wall, then place sconces from your furniture store on each side.

4. Consider the Reflection

Because a mirror reflects something back at you, it will draw attention to that item. Avoid placing mirrors in front of something unattractive such as a cluttered bookshelf. Instead, place it across from your favorite feature in the room, such as an attractive seating area or a chandelier.
