Mirrors can be incredibly  versatile decorating tools. Often times, people think of mirrors as purely functional, so they only go in rooms for utility purposes, like bathrooms or bedrooms. But, mirrors actually bring function and beauty to every room of the house. Here are 4 uncommon ways to use mirrors in your home.

1. Create Depth in an Entryway: Entryways are an underestimated part of your home. They are the first thing your guests will see when they enter your house and you want to leave them with a good impression. Make your entryway an amazing feature by adding depth and interest with an antiqued mirror. Not only will the mirror lighten up the entrance to your home, it will make the hallway appear bigger by adding depth.
2. Lighten Up Your Room: If you have a room that lets in little light due to lack of windows, don’t worry. Mirrors create the illusion of light with reflection. Try hanging a large mirror to on the wall opposite to your window. Not only will it create light, it will be a beautiful focal point in the room.

3. Use Mirror As Art: Mirrors are so beautiful, and can make an excellent replacement for a piece of art. There are many different things you can do to make mirrors into a focal point for your home. You can place a mirror behind reclaimed window panels for a shabby chic piece. You can arrange framed mirrors on picture ledges to create a gallery wall. Or, you can simple frame a large mirror in a beautiful frame – simple and elegant.
4. Make A Room Larger: Like we mentioned, mirrors reflect light which not only helps to make a room appear less like a cave, but they can also make the room appear larger. Try adding one or several floor length mirrors to a smaller room to help create the appearance of continued depth.
