Hi all! I’m Susi and I write as a guest blogger for DesignShuffle.com, a fabulous social media site that promotes interior designers from around the world and their work. My writing focuses on things I'm passionate about: decorating ideas, home furnishings, gardening, travel and art.
I am so happy to be writing a Fearless Fantasy Friday article for Linda! I love HeartFire and the idea of home being a “soft place to fall”. I also love the idea of magical places or vignettes created within our homes. So my Fearless Fantasy Friday post is on mirrored furniture. I love how mirrored furniture is continually in flux with the changing light and activity in a room. Hope you enjoy this post and are inspired by these gorgeous pieces of mirrored furniture.
Mirrored furniture can be entirely covered in mirror, fitted with mirrored panels, or highlighted with mirrored accents. Silver and chrome accents or legs blend in with the mirror to create a uniform look.
A mirrored chest of drawers can work wonderfully in a living room as well as a bedroom. Love how the mirrored surface reflects the patterned wall paper as well as the rest of the room.
Mirrored furniture paired with wall mirrors and reflective metallic finishes, such as silver or gold, creates a lively, sparkling vignette. Such glamorous decorating ideas for living rooms. Imagine how beautiful this group would be lit by candlelight.
Some contemporary mirrored furniture feels more antique with a technique called egloimise, reverse painting on mirror or glass. Adore the floral pattern on this mirrored cabinet.
Mirrored furniture comes in all types of styles, from antique to contemporary, including this modern style dresser.
Contemporary mirrored furniture can feel very space age, like this console table.
Mirrored furniture can make small spaces, like bathrooms or entries, feel much larger. It can also add glamour to any room, including the bathroom. What great bathroom design ideas!
Black and mirrored furniture can be very dramatic. The architectural mirrored panels on this armoire heighten the dramatic impact of the piece.
