oversized mirrors over vanity??

15 years ago

Hi Everyone!

I'm having trouble deciding what size mirror to place over our sinks. Our bathroom vanity is 9-1/2' long. We will have two sinks, placed about 18" in from each wall. We have a tall, slanted ceiling reaching a little over 12-1/2' tall with the highest part along the wall where the vanity will be and sloping downward to the other side of the room. I was thinking it might look cool and really dramatic to put in some really tall mirrors (~65" tall). So, the top of the mirror would be 65" + 34" tall vanity + 5" backsplash = 104" (or a little over 8-1/2' tall). My husband thinks it will look absolutely ridiculous because it is too tall and you would never utilize the top half of the mirror. But thats not the point. The tallness would help fill up the tall space of that wall. With such a tall ceiling, I think it would look funny to hang a standard-size mirror. I've never actually seen what I'm proposing in a picture, so its all in my head. Maybe if I saw a picture, I might think it looks ridiculous, too. I just don't know. In my head, it looks good. What do you all think??

Thanks in advance for your advice!!!
