Dining

I’m crazy about mirrors. I use them whenever possible. They don’t require color matching or exact style duplication. They simply reflect and highlight whatever you want to feature.

The possibilities are endless. Let’s see some ideas from several of my favorite decorating sites.

The photo above is from BHG. I think it fits the space perfectly. It draws your eyes to the window wall and gives added depth to the room.

House Beautiful suggests adding mirrored fronts upper cabinets to make a small kitchen appear larger. Although you would have to wipe fingerprints off regularly, just think of how easy it would be to see if you have spinach caught in your teeth.

This photo from Country Living is a wonderful way to display a collection of mirrors. Whether you collect antiques or prefer traditional or modern . . . this is a beautiful way to feature your favorites.

I love this mirrored table runner I found it at Real Simple and it is definitely on my to do list.

Another design from House Beautiful features not only a beautiful wall mirror, but the mirrored tray on the ottoman protects the fabric and accents accessories. I think a framed mirror would work equally well.

You can always count on Vern Yip for great style ideas. He suggests using mirrors over a fireplace to reflect your tastes . . . traditional, modern, country, etc.

This nursery is featured at Lonny Magazine. It is absolutely gorgeous. Check out the chandelier in the reflection. Love it!

You may have seen this bedroom featured at Country Living before. Mirrors make unique headboards, too.

What do you think? How will you be using mirrors at your house? I’m going to use more mirrors on tabletops in the future.
