These days, it’s pretty easy to find decorating ideas and suggestions by watching TV shows about renovating or flipping houses, or by using a more targeted approach like searching the internet using specific parameters to get ideas on your exact decorating concept. If you’re currently interested in considering ideas using decorative glass and mirrors, this is your lucky day.
Utilizing custom-cut mirrors as decor can be something extravagant, like designing a wall mirror installation. It can also be something that simply adds depth and dimension by using a mirrored backsplash in the kitchen. The sky’s the limit on this type of decorating.
One very popular trend is to install a “larger-than-life” mirror in your foyer where you greet guests and family as they enter your home. That mirror helps your guests do a quick self-check to make sure everything is in place upon arrival. For even more impact, you could frame a behemoth-sized mirror with a beveled mirrored frame.
Mirrors in the bathroom are a given, but some of the newest trends and inspirations include a half-wall-sized, tri-fold mirror that lets you see from multiple angles.
One style idea that’s extremely popular right now is filling your wall with a collage of pretty and eclectic smaller framed mirrors of just about any size or shape. These will stand out as more a piece of art than the typical simple mirrored wall. Another clever way of making mirrors a central decor theme within your home is to create a fun or dramatic interplay between two mirrors, both positioned to highlight the view of a special art piece or family treasure.
If cost is not an issue when considering adding decorative glass as a style aspect to your home, today’s designers go beyond the traditional stained glass window to adding etched designs that can exhibit a modern frame to some interesting piece of glass, to using a repeating pattern of an etched design throughout, making it glass artwork.
Decorative glass and mirrors as style elements within your home can be unique, one-of-a-kind displays that show true artistic prowess and give your guests something very special to look at.
