How to Decorate a Wall With a Circle Mirror

Group two or four smaller mirrors surrounding the larger “megastar” mirror, depending on wall space. Find secondary mirrors with frames in colors and styles from mango to magenta to metal, and earthy to starburst to ultra modern that blend famously within your space. Scatter these “supporting actors” around the feature mirror in a way that looks unintentional for a relaxed concept. As with artwork, the center of the main mirror should sit at average eye-level, about 60 inches from the floor. Although placed haphazardly, keep the middles of the additional mirrors within an acceptable height range, staggered from 55 to 65 inches from the floor.

Entertain the eye by introducing to the wall square or rectangular framed art with a circular “story." Sticking to one theme, scout for style-appropriate abstract, antique, eclectic or contemporary pictures depicting the likes of gumballs, wheels, planets or clocks or -- for a more subtle hint of shape -- a tree full of beady-eyed owls, school of pudgy tropical fish or a sunhat with a woman underneath. Hang the pictures slightly lower than the focal-point mirror and limit the artwork to one large picture or three assorted size pieces, depending on the wall space available, so as not to detract from or crowd the glass assemblage.
