Designer Chic Upholstered Wall Panels
February 2010 Design Newsletter
Welcome to our February 2010 Newsletter from Wall Huggers
In this issue we will discuss the, Decorating With Mirrors
When it comes to catching and reflecting light in your home, nothing does it better than mirrors. Long used to make
public places look bigger, these same tricks can be used in the smaller confines of your home. Beyond hanging in the
entry hall or on the bedroom wall, mirrors can be used in surprising ways throughout the house.
For people who live in apartments or condominiums, window light can be limited. By adding a mirror or group of
mirrors to those windowless walls, you can create the illusion of windows and reflect light into the space. Mirrors
mounted inside old window frames with curtains hung over them can further enhance the illusion.
Collections of mirrors can be used instead of traditional art behind a sofa or in a hall way. Start with a large mirror and
hang smaller size mirrors around it for an informal, eclectic feel. For a home full of antiques, you can choose mirrors
with similar antique style frames, such as gold leaf. Whitewashed frames will compliment the shabby chic look, and
identical small framed mirrors hung in rows will contribute to the look of a modern interior. Instead of the traditional
wall-to-wall mirrors used to make a room seem larger, the trend now is to use a row of long, tall mirrors spaced across
the wall.
Walls are not the only place for mirrors. Long, narrow mirrors are perfect under the centerpieces of dining room tables,
especially for romantic, candlelit dinners. A cut-to-fit mirror can serve as the perfect cover for the top of a worn side
table. Add a lamp or candles and you increase the sparkle in that corner of the room.
Mirrors can also be found in unexpected places, sewn into the trim of throw pillows and curtains. Placed in the back of
display shelves they help show off your collections and figurines. Even if placed in the back of pantry shelves mirrors
can reflect light and help locate items on deep shelves.
So if you are looking to add space and sparkle to a room in your home, don't forget to use mirrors. They can be
custom cut for your project and also come in great sizes and styles that would suit any decor theme.
