You have chosen the ideal mirror for your home, one that expresses your personality and complements your décor. But where are you going to put it?

Using mirrors to decorate your room may lighten it and make it appear larger. However, mirror placement might be perplexing.

Because of its big reflected surface, the mirror attracts attention to other characteristics in the space, which you do not want to do. Height and placement in relation to other things in the space are other important factors to consider. We have put up a mirror placement guide to assist you in finding the ideal area.

Choose a Room

A beautiful mirror will enhance the look of your foyer. It also allows you to double-check your appearance before leaving. To establish a command center in the foyer, place the mirror over a console table. It is best not to put the mirror exactly in front of the door. Seeing a mirror of oneself as soon as you step in the door might be frightening.

Mirrors walls are also useful in the living and dining rooms. The mirrors provide a decorative touch to the rooms while also making them appear larger. You may also draw attention to any characteristics in the space that you enjoy. A gorgeous chandelier or an antique curio cabinet might be reflected in a dining room mirror. Mirror walls are not appropriate in all rooms.

Many design experts advise against using too many mirrors in the bedroom. Mirrors may have an invigorating impact, which might work against the tranquil atmosphere you desire in your bedroom in some situations. Install a full-length mirror on the inside of your closet door to conceal it while getting ready.

Think about what it reflects

The most basic feature of a mirror is its ability to reflect light. It may be an effective decorative technique, but it can also draw attention to flaws. Consider what your mirror walls will reflect when deciding where to put it. Is there something you would want to emphasize?  If you place it across from a table that gathers clutter, the mess will be amplified.

You do not want your mirror walls to have that impact

Look around your space for the items you wish to emphasize. This might be a one-of-a-kind architectural element in the space. Different textures, such as a natural wood piece or a soft fabric component, may also be highlighted.

Now look in the direction of the items you wish to concentrate on. In that region, choose an appropriate spot on a wall. Have someone hold the mirror in place before hanging it to see what it reflects, no matter where you want to hang it. Examine the reflections in the mirror from various angles to ensure that they are pleasing.

Placement near Windows

You should place the mirror near the windows to get the most out of it. The mirror cannot collect and reflect light if it is placed against the same wall as the window.
