-
Vintage Mirrors
Decorating your walls with vintage mirrors is an easy way to make the focal point of any room interesting. Their ornate details and tarnished appearance make them stand out. For a classic hallway look, you may style your piece around art or flowers. You can also create a gallery of vintage mirrors, but be sure to carefully decide on placement. That being said, a collection may look best in a room with little clutter since the frames can be visually busy.

Circular Mirrors
Round mirrors normally do not get the same recognition as rectangular mirrors, but times are definitely changing. Interiors featuring round mirrors have consistently taken over Pinterest feeds and other decorative pages due to their increasing popularity. Metallic or ornate-cut frames can automatically elevate the atmosphere of any space such as a powder room. Its round shape can also hold well-balanced designs that you may not expect to match throughout a room. For instance, a minimal marble table with a sculptural chair in the living room topped with an accent of bright red.

Gold Mirrors
Golden details and frames can immediately make your room luxurious and expensive. They can also amplify a dark room to create a brighter atmosphere. Plus, they go well with almost every color. To glam up a space such as your living room, you may pair your piece with an elegant sofa set. Keep in mind if you have silver details, a golden mirror may be overdoing it.

Long Mirrors
To create a spacious and airy room, do not be afraid to use large and long mirrors. Mirrors do not always have to be hung on the wall for emphasis. You can always lean them up against a wall, making them the perfect element to use in a tiny room. They can make your living room look chic, add visual distance between a room and a wall, and they make perfect spots to check out your outfit! Many homeowners prefer the rustic style which has become trendy.

Hanging Mirrors
Also known as the sailor moon mirror, chic hanging mirrors can add more light to any room without actually installing artificial light. They also give the room a more dynamic and contemporary look, putting regular and ordinary mirrors to shame. To make these mirrors stand out, you may choose a contrasting wall to hang them onto. In order for these mirrors to reflect light, the wall needs to be darker in tone.
