new mirror ideas...

lately i've been obsessed with getting a new mirror for over my mantel. right now i have a standard rectangle mirror with a framed photo and buffet lamps... nothing special. here's some photos...





i really want to add some style to this vignette and my first order of business is a new mirror. i know that a mirror isn't a very inspired idea. it's necessary because my family room is north facing and i need a little light reflection. here are a few mirrors i really like. what do you think?

  2. hey erin...i really like the nate berkus wood mirror, but i think it would depend on the color of your walls. right now, i don't think there would be enough contrast. but i love the way the wood looks, so i wouldn't want to change that at all. so does that clarify things for you???

  4. I would go with either #1,#4 or #5. I think some contrast with your wall color is in order. I do love that sunburst mirror though!
