If you’re planning a bathroom renovation, have you thought about replacing the mirrors?
Since every bathroom needs at least one or two, it’s good to include them in your overall bathroom remodeling plan.
Great looking mirrors do much more than give you a clear look at yourself - they brighten up the entire space and reinforce whatever style you have chosen for your bathroom reno.
Making A Choice of Bathroom Mirrors
How do you go about deciding which mirrors are best for your remodeling?
Keep these three questions in mind to help you choose the best ones for your bathroom:
- Design Style - Every bathroom renovation must start out with you choosing a design style to match your decorating and bathroom elements. Once you’ve decided on a style, you can then decide whether multiple smaller mirrors or one large one fit that style best and choose details like framing, backlighting, and other features that can add more character to the mirrors and the entire bathroom overall.
- Budgeting for Mirrors - When budgeting for your overall bathroom reno, it is important to set individual budgets for each of the different components and improvements you want to make to keep the whole plan within your budget. After deciding on a mirror style, look into cost and set a budget that works within the overall budget. The amount you have available to spend on new mirrors may contribute to your style decision as well, as some simpler, less decorative mirrors are relatively inexpensive while other more ornate ones can cost much more to the point of being expensive.
- Maintenance Considerations - Mirrors require maintenance to varying degrees, so this is something else to consider when planning out your bathroom renovation. Where a plain, oversized mirror may only require a wipedown once a week to keep it clean and clear, framed mirrors, especially those with decorative chrome or other metal frames, may require more time to keep them looking clean and untarnished. It is easy to overlook the fact that sometimes cleaning mirrors takes a while, so if this is not time you want to invest, look for styles that require less cleaning time.
