Outdoor mirrors. Why not?


If you think that mirrors can be used only in the apartment, cafe, gym, so to say indoors, it is not like this at all. We, at Custom mirrors, can assure you that you can use mirrors outdoors as well.
Outdoor mirrors are a great addition to any garden but they’re especially useful in small courtyard gardens on roof terraces and balconies. Increasing a sense of space and reflecting light in more shady corners, a well placed mirror can add a new dimension to a garden.

Here are some pieces of advice of how to use and how to choose the mirrors:
  • use small round mirrors to achieve a window-like effect into another world
  • get your mirror to blend in surrounded by foliage
  • consider what you will be reflecting – don’t place your mirror opposite a wall with drain pipes or air ducts, but try to reflect the leafy interest in your garden
  • use full length mirrors to create the illusion of a garden beyond
  • don’t place mirrors too high up or anywhere they are likely to impact bird flight
  • don’t use mirrors in hot countries where they are likely to become a fire hazard

Just follow these easy rules and contact us at Custom Mirrors to get more information!

12 Bathroom Mirror Ideas for Every Style

The finishing touch to any bathroom is the perfect mirror. But if your vanity is looking a little lackluster, it may be time for some new bathroom mirror ideas. The good news is that there's a mirror for every style, whether you have a sleek, contemporary space or a more elegant and traditional bathroom. Peruse these bathroom mirror ideas to find the perfect piece and add some sparkle and shine to your morning routine.

Double Mirrors

A double vanity calls for two mirrors. Hang one above each sink to add symmetry to space. You can also hang two mirrors over a long single sink vanity to give the wall more impact without mirroring the whole thing.


Mirrored Wall

Overwhelmed by different sizes, shapes, and frames? Skip the decisions and mirror the entire wall! Bonus: Your tiny bathroom will feel bigger and brighter as a result.

Round Mirrors

A round mirror is a classic choice for a bathroom and can soften the sharp angles in contemporary spaces. Opt for a modern hanging style or choose a round mirror with an eye-catching frame.


Antique Mirrors

Mirrors are one of those pieces that look better with age. Skip the fresh-from-the-factory piece and find a vintage or antique mirror that's full of history, charm, and a few beautiful imperfections.


Minimalist Mirrors

For contemporary bathrooms, you'll want a mirror that fits with the streamlined design. Go for a basic shape that's frameless or has just a slim border.

Mix-and-Match Mirrors

You're not limited to one shape or size of the mirror. Try mixing and matching different mirrors above a double vanity to give the space a bit of personality.


Ornate Mirrors

For a look that’s over-the-top glamorous, choose an ornate mirror with a sparkling frame. You can also play with scale and go for an oversize style.

Mirror on Mirror

If you can't get enough sparkle, try doubling up. Layer a mirror on top of a mirrored wall for a look with depth.
