If you are looking to open up an area or room in your home, one of the best and easiest ways to accomplish this is by adding mirrors with either wrought iron designs or panel mirrors to the walls in that area. These are great ways to decorate an area, reflect both sun and moon light and create an ambiance that is both inviting and warm while expanding the perceived space in a room.
Opening up areas and making the appearance of more space has always been the natural result of using mirrors. It has been a popular technique for years. In order to make mirrors more decorative, wrought iron has been added to the mirror and it is then displayed in the entrance way, foyer or in a hallway. As well, mirrors also work very well in bedrooms, and when it comes to decorating your home, a surprising and delightful enhancement to any area where it's added.
Many times you will find that condo and apartment dwellers will add perceived space to their residence, because it is smaller than an average home. By adding mirrors in either a panel or decorative model to the walls creates a perceived larger amount of space, or if you use full length mirrors, it will give the impression of having full-length windows that open out in a spacious area.
Added to this faux window decorating scheme is the fact that if you mount a wrought iron decorated mirror just inside an old window frame, and hang it one the wall adorned with blinds or curtains, you will have the optical illusion of an actual extra window in your apartment.
Sitting rooms are another area where mirrors are usually utilized in conjunction with art. Added to that are comfortable furniture like recliners or sofas, prints and art on the walls, and if you're smart, you'll also add a collection of mirrors to the mix. If you are trying for a minimalist, modern look, you can look to hanging different sized mirrors on the walls in a non-linear pattern that will spark interest.
As well as increasing the natural light, it will also give the room an artsy and eclectic impression to the living area. Choosing mirrors that have similar frames or mix and match ones, adding mirrors will cause people to pay attention to different things in the room by reflection.
Antiques are another decorating plus, because you can add any classical pieces that have the patina of time on them and complement them with mirror frames that blend into your existing decor. You can find a lot of these mirrors at yard sales, flea markets, second hand and consignment stores and the like. After sprucing up the frame either with pain or by putting on gold leaf over the existing frame, you will have a stunning piece that is both functional and a conversation piece.
It's not necessary to limit your decorating creativity when it comes to wrought iron, mirrors and wall hangings. There are custom-fitted mirrors that can also grace coffee tables covering them up from damage with something that serves as a tray to highlight coffee table books. There are many ideas you can use mirrors with in order to beautify your home, make it more spacious and functional at the same time.
