How to Decorate a Mantel with Mirrors | Interior Design Video Lecture | Interior Designing: A Basic Training - Self Help Learning

so usually when you have a fireplace
mantel one of the things that people use
to decorate these Mantle's are mirrors I
love a mirror what person doesn't love a
mere especially girls
so mirrors over a mantel you know you
can do that a couple different ways you
can have one big mirror and just call it
a day I mean that's classic everybody
loves it or you can have a little bit
more fun with it you can have multiple
mirrors and so it's almost like
different windows into the soul you know
right above the mantel make it a little
bit more interesting what I personally
love to do is I love to hang a mirror a
very large mirror over the mantel and
instead of keeping it boring and classic
go a little bit extra and start layering
your mirrors so you have a very large
mirror over the mantel it's hung on the
wall then you have a medium mirror of a
totally different look maybe it's gilded
maybe it's painted and you have that off
to the side a little bit and then maybe
you have another smaller mirror again
threes are really important because it
gives you that context gives that
layering it makes it feel like you
didn't try too hard but you try just
enough and they can be different they
can be totally different in color they
can be totally different in the way that
the frame looks but I think it's a
really interesting way to dress up the
mantel and at the end of the day it's
the layering in the room that makes the
most and the biggest impression and so
starting with your mantel as the focal
point is really the first start to any
room
