7 Types of Custom Mirrors for Your Bathroom

A beautiful custom mirror is an essential piece of bathroom furniture as installing one (or more) enhances the overall look of the space. Framed and frameless mirrors come in a variety of shapes, sizes and designs, so picking the right option gets difficult. This blog discusses different custom mirror ideas for your bathroom to help you make the right choice.

Some Exceptional Bathroom Mirror Ideas

1. Mirror Wall
   To create an attractive focal point in your bathroom, add a big mirror. You can transform the wall behind your sink into a full-sized mirror to give your bathroom an elegant look. Customize the mirror as per your needs so it perfectly fits or hire professionals to bring together simple framed mirrors to cover the entire wall. If you think covering the whole thing is unnecessary, go for an oversized or full-length dressing room mirror. To make your tiny bathroom look bigger, install a giant mirror. When it comes to brightening up your bathroom without installing light fixtures, a mirror wall is the perfect choice.

2. Round Mirrors
   To give your bathroom a modern look, go for round or oblong mirrors. (Square and rounded rectangle mirrors make your bathroom look outdated.) Install multiple small circled mirrors to add a playful touch to the space or a single large rounded mirror above or behind your sink to add elegance. Consider your interior décor to choose the most appropriate size and frame colour. If your bathroom is primarily pastel, pick a mirror with a white or pale-coloured frame; if dark, go for a mirror with a subtle coloured frame to create contrast. To determine the proper mirror size, measure your bathroom.

3. Deep Wooden Mirrors
   Is your bathroom neutrally coloured? Then install a mirror with a wooden frame. A rich mahogany-styled mirror in a deep and earthy tint can significantly improve the overall look. If you want an accessible tiny shelf to store small items, choose wooden mirror frames that extend one to two inches forward. To play it safe, opt for a rounded rectangle mirror as it goes well with every style of décor. If you want to experiment, opt for a circular or oblong wooden mirror. The wood’s natural finish gives a rich look to the entire space. As a deep wooden mirror is highly durable, it will last for years with little maintenance.

4. Gilded Mirrors
   Installing a gilded mirror adds a royal touch and glamour to your bathroom. Once installed, do not add any other gilded or decorative item as it may make your bathroom look loud. If you have a simple bathroom with solid colours and straight lines, a gilded mirror is the perfect addition. Include small accents like a gold handle on white vanity drawers or a gold stripe across your towel, to enhance the radiance.

5. Sculpted Mirrors
   Many homeowners are installing uniquely-shaped mirrors in their themed bathrooms. From innovative to asymmetrical and sea-shell shaped, sculpted mirrors come in many different designs, so you can easily get a sculpted mirror suited to the space’s theme. To add an artistic touch to a humid environment, add an oddly shaped mirror. This will act as an eccentric focal point and add style to your minimalist bathroom.

6. Triptych Mirrors
   To get the feel of an old Hollywood dressing room, add a triptych mirror to your bathroom. This comprises three segments and gives an antique look. The middle piece is usually largest and is bordered by two pieces of similar height, width and shape. A triptych mirror is useful to apply makeup as it lets you see your face clearly from every angle. You can hang it above the sink or create a vanity with a classic table to do your makeup comfortably.

7. Illuminated Mirrors
   An illuminated mirror comes with built-in lights and is extremely handy. Most illuminated mirrors use LED lighting to form a clear image. They provide enough light to apply makeup or shave. Illuminated mirrors are usually made of high-quality magnification panels which improve the quality of your reflection. Choose an illuminated mirror with an anti-fog feature to maintain its clarity.

Now that you are aware of some of the most popular types of bathroom mirrors, you can more easily decide which works best for you. Be sure to identify your needs to pick the one most suited to your bathroom theme. Then decorate your bathroom with custom mirrors to add beauty and functionality to the space.
