The mirror on the bathroom wall doesn’t just tell how pretty or suave you look before you leave for work every day. It also adds character and a sense of spaciousness to a small space. Even though they are mainly seen as functional pieces in a bathroom décor, they can be effectively used to elevate the visual appeal of your space.
From simple lines to edgy curves, backlit ones to reflective frames, vintage elegance or a modern look — there’s a ton of design options out there for you to explore. Here are some exciting bathroom mirror ideas for you to try.
Framed reflections
Frames add dimension to mirrors. Think metallic glitter or polished wood for an old-world charm. Or arched frames to lend a unique character to the vanity wall. Beaded frames or the ones with intricate ornamentation that can transport you to a different time zone altogether. So, go ahead and put up a framed mirror to introduce a touch of sophistication on your bathroom wall.
Haloed mirrors
Mirrors reflect light and brighten up any given space. Mirrors with built-in lights take this functionality a step up by radiating light, like a halo. Choose either a soft glow or a bright illumination for your backlit mirror. Incorporate a super-stylish aspect to your bathroom with Australian made LED mirrors that can be controlled with a simple switch.
Lines and curves
Bathroom mirrors can be of simple lines, ovals, circles, and angular too. Work out what works for your bathroom decor. In most cases, you can never go wrong with an oval-shaped mirror for your vanity. But there is no harm in experimenting with unconventional geometrical shapes either. You can also consider curved edges to otherwise simple straight lines to take focus away from the sharp corners.
Mirrored Vanity
Mirrors to cover up wall storage do well to utilise space in cramped bathrooms. In case you have the vanity underneath the countertop, consider having a mirror affixed to it. Apart from upping the glam factor, this will also make the bathroom seem larger.
Floor to ceiling coverage
Do you have a small bathroom? Consider a floor-to-ceiling wall mirror. Visually, this mirror idea will double up your space like magic, not to mention the wide-angle you would get for your mirror-front tasks.
Reflective mirrors
Mirrors with smaller pieces of bevelled mirrors framing them around the sides can be a design wonder, creating multiple reflections of light and a distinctly intriguing look.
Folded corner mirrors
You can transform any ugly corner of your bathroom with tall folded corner mirrors. Mirror on mirror reflection will also give you a wonderful selfie position.
Dressing Room Mirror
If you have a spacious bathroom, how about giving it a dressing room-like treatment complete with an ornate three-way folding mirror? Not only will such a mirror level up the oomph of your bathroom, but also help you get gorgeously beautiful from head to toe.
Double or nothing
Twin mirrors can make your life easier, especially when you have to jostle for mirror space with your partner while getting ready every morning. Plus, more mirrors mean more glamour, space, and light. Be it framed without a frame, twin mirrors are not just a common feature of public toilets but can be yours too in your bathroom.
Frames with built-in shelf space
Frames that extend out to create a small built-in shelf for a sleek flower vase or a couple of light grooming items on your bathroom mirror are nothing short of a design delight.
A stylish mirror update can change the look of your bathroom and reflect your aesthetic sense too. Which of these mirror ideas would you like to play around with?
