Rectangular Wall Mirrors Reflecting Style

When it comes to decorating the walls of your home, there are few items as classic as the wall mirror. This simple and incredibly versatile piece of wall decor goes a long way to creating a designer-inspired design in an entry vestibule, grand living room or inviting bedroom. With so many rectangular wall mirrors available at Williams Sonoma, it's easy to discover the one that will reflect your personal style.

Benefits of Decorating With Rectangular Mirrors

The reflective nature of a mirror isn't just great for seeing yourself, it also works to bounce light around the room, making it appear larger and brighter. Try hanging the mirror opposite a window or sliding glass door to maximize light reflection. Hanging a large rectangular mirror vertically provides a full-body view, which is a popular and functional addition to any bathroom, closet or bedroom design. Mirrors are easy to mix-and-match with your existing wall art. Clocks and decorative wreaths are another option for filling out your wall decor.

Choosing Your Rectangular Wall Mirror

With such a plethora of rectangular mirrors available, it can be challenging to narrow it down to your favorite. Fortunately, you can narrow down the search by considering the key features of the mirror.

• Size: Determine where the mirror will hang in your space and take measurements of the area. If you want to see what the mirror will look like in place, use painter's tape to mark out the dimensions of the piece you're considering.
• Finish: Evaluate the existing furnishings of the room, taking a look at the fabrics, metals and wood tones. Choose a mirror finish that blends in with the coordinating decor or stands out in gleaming contrast. Gold, black and silver are among the most popular options.
• Design: The framework surrounding the mirror helps to set the stage for the overall design style of the piece. Consider the existing design theme of your room and select a mirror with a coordinating design to your existing decor.

When it comes to adding wall decor to your home, using a mirror is a classic option. Hang them over a table, sofa or mantel. Changing out the frameless mirrors in your bathroom for decorative mirrors is a great way to elevate the design of the room with minimal effort. Hang one on a wall in a master closet and you'll always have a full-body view as you get dressed in the morning. As you browse the extensive collection, look for the small design details that speak to your personal style.
