Mirrors Brighten a Room<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mirrors magically reflect everything, including natural light. Hanging a round or rectangular mirror near or across a window is an easy way to reflect an outdoor view and invite cheerful sunlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. They Magnify Room Decor&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ve taken your time to decorate &#8212; picked out the style, colors, and textures of the furniture. Adding a mindfully-placed square or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/products\/mirrors\/type_wall-mirrors\/shape_rectangular\/\">rectangular mirror<\/a> allows you to multiply and reflect the details of the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since mirrors reflect everything, avoid reflecting an unflattering view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Mirrors Enlarge Your Space&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some furniture pieces are space savers, while mirrors make rooms look bigger. If you have a small room, add a large wall or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/products\/mirrors\/type_floor-mirrors\/\">floor mirror<\/a> to give the illusion of more space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mirrors for Personal Grooming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We use our bathroom mirrors to check our own reflections, groom, and get ready for the day. But mirrors placed throughout the house can be used for the same purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hang a mirror near an entryway to check your appearance before leaving the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"> \n\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/QGpiF3usYU4?si=5VE_oWX2Hk478R3z\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">How to Buy a Wall Mirror and Mirror Hanging Brackets Buying Guide<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mirror Placement Tips by Room<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a name=\"mirror-placement-tips-by-room\"><\/a>Bathroom Mirrors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can buy nearly any mirror for the bathroom, as long as the space doesn&#8217;t have an excess build-up of steam or moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the round or oval mirror a few inches above the bathroom sink to avoid backsplash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For poorly-lit bathrooms, go for a mirror with built-in lighting.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/121917-contemporary-modern-bathroom-h.jpg\" alt=\"A two-sink vanity with mirrors above the sink.\" class=\"wp-image-2977\" title=\"A grey two-sink vanity with wall sconces and two mirrors above the sink.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/121917-contemporary-modern-bathroom-h.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/121917-contemporary-modern-bathroom-h-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/121917-contemporary-modern-bathroom-h-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Put a Mirror in the Bedroom or Living Room<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Above the Fireplace or Mantel &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>A general rule of thumb is to place the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/products\/mirrors\/type_framed\/\">framed mirror<\/a> at least four to five inches above the top of the living room or bedroom mantel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tall Rooms &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>To emphasize the height of a space, use a vertical mirror.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Long and Narrow Rooms &#8211;&nbsp;<\/strong>Use a horizontal mirror to make a long or narrow room appear wider.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mirror Placement in Hallways and Entryways<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the mirror above a table in the hallway or entryway of your home. This prime location allows the mirror to brighten&nbsp;the space and provide a quick way to check your appearance before leaving the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Place Mirrors in Dining Rooms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Dining rooms love mirrors, but the trick is to avoid glares from nearby lighting fixtures such as chandeliers. If you have a chandelier with exposed bulbs in your dining room, consider diffusing the glare with an antiqued mirror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a name=\"how-to-hang-a-mirror\"><\/a>How to Hang a Mirror<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the right tools and a little preparation, you can hang a mirror the right way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What You&#8217;ll Need &#8211; Tools and Wall Anchors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The tools you will need to hang a mirror include a pencil, stud finder, level, and a screwdriver.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mirrors with all types of brackets can be hung using a wall anchor and a screw. A separate purchase of screws, wall anchors, and mounting brackets that can hold the weight of the mirror may be required.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Note: hanging mirrors with wire is not recommended.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enlist the help of a second pair of hands to help you position the mirror.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Identify Your Hanging Brackets<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most Lamps Plus mirrors come with hanging hardware already attached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here, the four types of hanging brackets:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. D-Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The D-ring is the most common type of hanging bracket. It&#8217;s mounted on the back of the mirror, a few inches from the top and sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Keyholes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically made of metal, a keyhole is embedded in the frame construction of the mirror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Saw-Tooths<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The saw-tooth is the least common hanging bracket used for smaller designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Vanity-Style Mirror Brackets&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these brackets, the mirror sits several inches off the wall surface and is set in place with brackets that are part of the mirror itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Mirror Ideas and Advice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/mirror-buying-guide\/\">How to Decorate with Mirrors&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/glamorous-mirrors-and-sconces-in-bathrooms\/\">Glamorous Mirrors and Sconces in Bathrooms<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/decorating-ideas-with-mirrors\/\">5 Decorating Ideas with Mirrors&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lampsplus.com\/ideas-and-advice\/9-style-ideas-for-bathroom-mirrors\/\">9 Style Ideas for Bathroom Mirrors<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reflect the beauty of your home with these helpful buying tips from the experts. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3054,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[99,22],"tags":[88],"class_list":["post-2948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-buying-guides","category-furniture-and-home-decor","tag-mirrors"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How to Buy a Mirror and Hang it Like a Pro - Ideas &amp;
