Bathroom Mirror Ideas: 13 Looks You’ll Love

September 3, 2024

One of the easiest ways to give your bathroom a fresh look is by choosing the right bathroom mirror. 

From clean modern styles to timeless traditional looks, our designers will help you choose a bathroom mirror that aligns perfectly to your aesthetic.  Re-imagine your bathroom with these stylish bathroom mirror ideas from our design team!  

1. Play Around with Height

If your bathroom has high ceilings, you can use this to your advantage when choosing mirrors. Putting tall "floor length" mirrors above the sinks adds a ton of height and dimension to the space

2. Keep it Natural

Not all mirrors have a metal frame, including this bathroom featuring double mirrors with natural wicker-style frames.

4. Experiment with Mirror Shapes

Mirrors come in all sizes and shapes, and having a mirror with a unique shape is a great way to make the space interesting.

5. Backlight It

Brighten your bathroom with a backlit mirror.  A backlit mirror gives a beautiful glow to dark, awkward spaces while enhancing surrounding features like sinks and countertops. This illuminating addition is extremely functional as the diffused light mimics soft daylight perfect for styling hair, applying makeup, or shaving.

These gorgeous decorative mirrors contrast beautifully with the sink vanity while tying in the floor pattern for a stunning overall design statement.

8. Add Some Texture

This beach condo bathroom in Melbourne, FL has a clean, modern look.  We love how designer Lindsey Schwartz incorporated this gorgeous mirror with a hint of natural beachy texture.

9. Use a Double Framed Mirror

The sky is the limit when it comes to choosing a bathroom mirror frame. This bathroom features a mirror that is framed by a gold metal piece, then further framed with gold elements.

10. Camouflage the Mirror

For a seamless look, blending the mirror into wall is a great option. In this bathroom, the double mirrors are the same color as the wall paint, so it makes for a lovely and subtle reflection of light as well as allowing the beautiful shower tile to take center stage. 

11. Go Frameless

The right frameless mirror can provide a striking, clean appearance against a fun patterned wallpaper or complement an ultra contemporary design as in the example below.

12. Flip Your Mirror Horizontally

A popular option for rectangular mirrors is to hang them vertically to add height, however this doesn't always fit the space. In this Tampa, Fl bathroom, the mirror was flipped horizontally which adds more room for looking into it and leaves space for a lighting above the vanity.

13. The Old Meets New Mirror 

Opposites attract, right? Generate visual interest in your bathroom by pairing clean lines with a vintage mirror and lighting.
