Interiors: Mirror Collections




I wonder if maybe I have a touch of OCD with my strong inclination towards grouping and collections?  I like wall decor that pushes an idea, much like plate walls, mirror walls are a great way to display a collection of vintage/thrifted/or found pieces.  They needn't be framed or fancy; I like mirrors best when they have some age and wear on them. What do you think about these mirrored collections?
I searched through my archives and found three other posts on mirrors that you might like if you're looking for some wall decor inspiration:  oversized mirrors, unframed mirrors, any mirror will do

images: 1) the cottage log  2) haute design 3) this is glamorous

  1. Funny, there is a Feng Shui thing that state, there should be a mirror for every face the dwells in the space but, not opposite...to not disorient the people in the place.

    I do believe this is my new "thing".

    Cheers!

  2. Okay, so I am probablly the only one here but mirrors creep me out just a bit (do you remember the "Bloody Mary" rumor from gradeschool days?). A few are okay around the house (a girl has to check her hair and clothes) but a whole walll...creepy :)

  10. Really do like the look of the grouped mirrors... and actually the grouping of the plates too. Wish I was bold and committed enough to the idea to do it myself....
