Size

When purchasing a pre-made mirror or custom fitting a mirror to a space, consider the location. If it’s hung above a counter or piece of furniture, keep the mirror a few inches smaller on each side.This will nicely centre the mirror and leave a little visual space.

Frame

Choosing a frame has never been easier, with online customization options you can customize your mirror to any space. If your room is a little more traditional, a wood frame looks beautiful, but if you’re looking for a more dramatic eye catching mirror, perhaps choose a thinner metal frame or a bold baroque style scrollwork frame.

Style

What style of room are you decorating? Scroll through Pintrest to find all sorts of different mirrors styles and shapes. Mirrors styles are much more varied nowadays, you don’t have to stick with the old builder’s rectangle. If it’s a simple front entryway, place an arch mirror on a console table. If you’re hanging a modern set of vanity mirrors, maybe use a modern gold framed circular mirror.

Glass

Customize your mirror glass and add a bevel for a glamorous and designed touch, simple details can really elevate a space. If your room is in a more minimalist style, maybe forgo the bevel.

Decor

Do you want the mirror to be the focal point in your space, or blend in nicely? Try to match some small decor elements throughout the space such as door handles or candles to the mirrors’s frame to make finish of the mirror seem more deliberate and cohesive.
