In my career as a home improvement consultant I have written a number or reviews and articles about mirror usage around your home. I have spent time sharing about how to correctly place them around the house and how to use them to lighten up and add some sense of space. Having said that let me continue sharing more of some of my tips and tricks.
This is just a simple yet effective review that should get you well on your way to changing the look of your house.
First and foremost mirrors are used to check your image and see if you are happy with yourself i.e. to be sure you are dressed for the party.
More and more people have gone past that functionality and are now using them to create an illusion of space in their homes. In addition to that, they are also used to add more light into a “not so well lit” room.
There is a large pool from where you can choose your mirrors from. For instance, you can go for a wall , oversized, tiny convex, silver, Venetian, metal, handcrafted, wrought iron, antique and full length body mirror to list only a few.
If you are on a tight budget this is essentially the best way to remodel your house and make it look new and welcoming. Let me just mention that while this has all the advantages it does, however, come with some draw backs. For example, you ca have kids and visitors rubbing their heads against the mirrors and causing them to become cloudy and “uncleanable”. So to deal with this problem I suggest you get yourself a mirrored tile which comes with a design overlay that is etched on it.
You can also have oversized bathroom mirrors on a mantle. Alternatively simply add some highlights on some parts of the walls.
Do not force matters overdoing things around your house. Just do what you can with the resources you have and live the rest to next time. If you want some ideas on what to do exactly use search engine to find other great resources online
