A great design accessory and decorating tool, when strategically placed, mirrors can magically make a room appear larger while adding light and dimension. Huge visual impact! Reflect on our wrought iron collection for yourself!
Hang a mirror in the foyer. It can serve as a decorative accent for your walls, a final checkpoint before you leave the house.
Select a mirror that is large enough to provide ample reflection and suit your needs. Larger mirrors reflect more light into a room, creating the illusion of a more expansive, brighter area.
An oversized rectangular mirror, leaning against a wall, makes a dramatic statement in any room, especially in one that lacks a focal point.
Smaller mirrors with different frames and shapes can be grouped together and are especially when hung in a small guest or powder room.
Don’t get stuck in a rut over shapes, hang a round mirror over a dresser, for example, instead of the more standard rectangular-shaped mirror.
Make bold statements choose a mirror that is the opposite style of your other furnishings. For example an ornate mirror to hang in a clean contemporary space, or an simple straight lined mirror to balance a more formal room.
Mirrors are heavier than pictures or paintings of equal size. When hanging a mirror, make sure you do it securely.
The best way to clean a mirror is with newspaper instead of a cloth. Protect the frame from discoloration by spraying the glass cleaner directly onto the newspaper rather than the mirror.
