As you look around your own home or a friend's home - you might just notice a handful of mirrors! Mirrors are not only a practical design choice for your bath, powder, or dressing room - but, they can be used to make quite the DESIGN STATEMENT!
We would like to agree with designer, Andreea Rusu, & her suggestion... that there are never rules when it comes to mirrors. "Mirrors bring light & depth into rooms - they're like decorative windows you can move around & place as you'd like," she says. WE LOVE THIS IDEA! When you can create in your home without having to adhere to rules... you have a blank canvas & an opportunity to become a unique artist.
Decorative Windows
According
to designer Andreea Avram Rusu there are never rules when it comes to
decorating with mirrors. "Mirrors bring light and depth into rooms —
they're like decorative windows you can move around and place as you
like," she says. Mirrors have several benefits and can "reflect and
emphasize views and colors from art and/or adjacent walls creating
special effects," designer Celia Berliner says. Design by Andreea Avram
Rusu.

STARBURST MIRRORS continue to be used throughout various room designs. They can dress up any dull foyer & add a unique twist to a tired dining room! If you stick to starburst mirrors in gold, silver, or bronze tones - then they tend to blend well with both contemporary & traditional looks.
We love it when our vendors bring in wall decor that adds a touch of elegance! How lovely is the gold oval starburst mirror featured (image R) in a vignette by our vendor, Embellish? We are drooling over it's intricate detail!
It would be perfect in a entryway or a dressy powder room.

Mirrors CAN BRING LIFE to your walls - just like art does, they create additional light, & they add reflectivity to make a space appear larger than it actually is! So, if you are looking to add some VISUAL APPEAL to your home then consider a mirror... you can't go wrong.
