Instant Makeover Mirror, mirror, who says you have to be on a wall? Create a light, cozy bedroom tonight  Image courtesy istockphoto Sure, knocking down a wall will make for a new bedroom, but who has the extra time or money? Instead, add a mirror or two for fresh, painless results. “Anytime you have light refractions it will give a room a sense of openness,” says Katie Hixon, owner of Katie Hixon Interiors, Columbus, Ohio. Although a bedroom’s layout will ultimately dictate where mirrors will go, she says placing a mirror opposite of a window is like adding another window. If that doesn’t work, try facing a mirror toward your bed, an empty wall or a pretty accessory, suggests Marcia Connors, co-owner of Growing Space Interior Design, Canton, Mass. “Just make sure it’s not reflecting clutter,” she adds. Hixon also suggests considering a full-length mirror on a stand. “These are not only practical, but they can give off a lot of reflection,” she says. |
