Mirror Effects

Mirrors are magical.  They do a lot of heavy lifting in the decorating department.  Are you guilty of not harnessing their full stylistic punch?  They are not just for checking to see if we have spinach between our teeth.Their powers are masterful if used properly.


They are effective in small sizes grouped together or become focal points of the room if large enough to be stood on the floor and leaned against the wall.

Using mirrors creatively can add extra  style throughout your home. If your room looks unbalanced because of a lack of a  window create the illusion of one.  Use mirror panels to make a faux window and top it off with curtains, and at first glance it will pass as a window.

When you have a beautiful view, you can double it.  Hang a mirror opposite the view to duplicate it.  This can take the place of art work. It will also add double the natural light in the room.

Mirrors are thought to add more energy to a space.  Try adding one or using one you have in an unexpected place.
Let me know if you feel more energetic!
