A Guide to Top Selling Oval and Round Mirrors

Posted by Eric Morgan on 18th Sep 2014

The Oval and Round Mirror store sells a wide selection of oval mirrors, rectangle mirrors, round mirrors and custom mirror designs. Round mirrors are among the most popular, bestselling mirrors. These mirrors are versatile and look superb when paired with a wide variety of home decors, including modern, classic, Victorian, bohemian, seaside designs and much more.

The differences between round and oval mirrors often relate to personal preferences, but wall shape, home architecture and ceiling height can also determine mirror styles. If ceilings are tall, a round mirror helps add balance, which brings ceilings downward and makes rooms look more proportionate. On the other hand, if a room has short, standard contractor-grade ceilings, an oval mirror can add the illusion of much-needed height to small areas, tricking the eye into elongating spaces.

Decorating Bathrooms with Round and Oval Mirrors

When using round and oval mirrors in bathroom areas, consider matching and coordinating lighting fixtures to the mirrors’ styles and appearances. For example, if using a modern, round mirror, opt for simple, contemporary lighting that features brushed nickel or stainless steel with practical cylindrical designs. These look excellent paired together, complimenting one another and making a room’s design feel cohesive and well planned. Another excellent contemporary design is custom frameless mirrors, which can easily accommodate a wide variety of interior designs and styles.

If homes have an antique recessed archway in a bathroom, consider using an elongated oval mirror that matches romantic sconce lighting, which casts a delightful antique glow.

When using mirrors that feature silver, copper or gold, it is important to select bathroom hardware and fixtures that easily blend and match these metallic, metal tones. Conversely, antique white framed mirrors look best with white pedestal sinks, soft-tone hardware, bright lighting and minimal bathroom accessories.

Wooden mirrors are contemporary and blend with a wide variety of Pacific Northwest-style designs and vanity lighting. Lighter-tone woods look best with nickel accessories, while dark tones can blend with aged gold or copper accessories.

A frameless mirror looks superb with bold wallpaper, allowing the background to become the centerpiece of the bathroom. Pair this with simple cabinetry, minimal accessories and modern day sconce lighting for an upscale look that is sure to impress guests.

Decorating Living Rooms with Mirrors

Living rooms often require more thought and organization than bathrooms. Many homeowners wonder if they should paint accent walls, purchase contemporary furniture, work with neutral colors or opt for bright, bold accents.

When decorating a living area, it is important that the room have a noticeable statement piece. This is easy to accomplish using an oversize, unique mirror. Not only do mirrors add much needed reflections to living room areas, they can also reflect upscale artwork, sculptures and panoramic views.

Double-duty furniture styles are popular for living room areas, with sofas doubling as extra sleeping areas or ottomans opening to reveal blanket and DVD storage. Make sure that styles flow well with wall mirrors, which gives living rooms a cohesive appearance. Additionally, use symmetrical arrangements for furniture and mirrors, as this gives rooms a zen-like balance that appears organized, clean and functional.
