Most of us would be pretty lost in the mornings without a mirror; getting ready without this decor staple is undoubtedly challenging. But mirrors are so much more than selfie assistance; mirrors have the potential to transform the look of your home’s interiors completely. 

So, if you’re wondering how you can use mirrors to vamp up your home, we’ve listed five top options for you to consider. 

Make The Room Seem Bigger

The correct placement of an arched mirror can make any room in your home seem much larger than it really is; mirrors can reflect space effectively. 

Use large mirrors in rooms of your home that are smaller and cramped. It’s vital to use a large mirror and place it just right. Installing a mirror over wardrobe doors is an effective way to make a small bedroom seem twice as big.

Amplify Natural Light

Mirrors also reflect light and can make your home a lot more vibrant as a result. Place mirrors of different sizes strategically to direct natural light back into your home. 

Other ways to make a small room seem bigger include using contrasts and light colors, opening the space with creative lighting solutions, clearing out all the clutter, and creating a focal point in the room.

Elegant Wall Decor

One of the more common and practical uses of mirrors in interior design is to take advantage of the frame more than the actual mirror. 

You can achieve an elegant victorian look with delicate and detailed vintage frames or opt for a modern look with sleek and thin metal frames. Mirrors come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, and the variety of frame designs is quite endless as well. 

Mirror Trays

Not all mirrors are for the walls; mirror trays are a charming decor idea for the living room. 

In these trays, you can place a selection of pillar candles or any other decor item. Mirror trays are a perfect detail to tie together an interior design plan for the living room. 

Moreover, if you enjoy DIY craft projects, you can also make your own creative mirror trays with a frame, paint, mirror, and handles of your choice. If you decide to make your own mirror trays, the sky is the limit when it comes to design.  

A Collage Of Mirrors

Mirror collages are trending in interior design. Use a variety of mirrors to create a wall collage. You can even create an accent wall with mirrors of your choice. 

Mirror collages can be made with various fancy frames, or you can use naked mirrors cut in different shapes to create the accent wall you’re after. 

Mirrors are undeniably one of the more functional decor elements out there; these decor items can enlarge a space, make it brighter, and add charming details to any room of your home. 

And because mirrors are available in such a wide variety, there is something for every interior design, whether you’re after a Gothic Victorian home, a trendy industrial theme, or modern minimalism.
