MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL by PINK DOOR DECOR

Mirrors are great for decorating walls. They are both fashionable and functional. In order to capture the best use of your mirror, make sure you have the right type of mirror for the space.

One faux pas of many homeowners, who use mirrors in their decor, is hanging a functional mirror over the fireplace, when a fashionable mirror is needed. If you are going to use a functional mirror over a fireplace mantle, check to make sure it reflects something pretty, such as a chandelier. You do not want to look in the mirror and see the pickets of your staircase. The Aria and Raindrops mirrors found on http://www.pinkdoordecor.com/ are eye catching fashionable mirrors. Both are pieces of art. You really don't notice the reflection that appears in these mirrors. Your eyes remain focused on the beauty of the design.

Functional mirrors work wonders in small spaces. The reflection makes the space appear larger. You can use a functional mirror anywhere, just make sure you pay attention to what is being reflected. The Galeton and Winsford Venetian are great examples of functional mirrors, both found on www.pinkdoordecor.com

Here's a great link that talks about the uses of functional mirrors from a feng shui perspective:
