Master bathroom mirrors

11 years ago
Should I put 2 oval or rectangular mirrors over the double sinks? Should I stay with the polished chrome finish or go with a frameless mirror or something else?

    You are correct one of the oops our contractor made. Should I do a chrome frame or painted?

    Can you get chrome ovals that adjust? The challenge is the switch panel and outlet on the right. Maybe oval will just miss that area.

    Your electrical outlets are going to dictate what you can use. Because everything is a bit kattywampus, I would use one big mirror and the add mirrored faceplates over the outlets.

    I would just measure the space.. go to home depot and look at what they have.. and go from there... they have mirror in all sizes..

    I would take the time and effort to even the light fixture. It can be moved rather easily and patch a small area. Get that done and re-address the mirrors. Call the contractor and tell him you want it done right.

    Susan is right, but moving isn't going to work because the sinks are so close to the edge of the vanity. I'd look for one long strip light centered between the sinks.

    Or change the light fixtures and do this instead

    I think Genevieve is right.

    I did one huge mirror then did corner mirrored bathroom cabinets. Every one loves them. You could do one since you don't have two corners. My lights are high so as not to interfere with the cabinets. The mirrors really bring light to my windowless bathroom!

    Trust me. Oval mirrors under the lights will accentuate the fact that the sinks don't line up with the lights. You won't like it. And from a design perspective, both your light fixtures and faucets are detailed with "curves". Hence, a large rectangular mirror framed in black (to match your countertop color) would be a better solution so the whole area doesn't look "busy" and off-centered. I'd strongly consider having an electrician fix the outlet so it doesn't go so far in to the area where the mirror should be. It might cost $150, but would be worth it in the long run. Good luck. : )

    Thanks again for all the great advice. Moving the light fixtures is not an option due to what is behind the wall. If it was possible we would have moved them. Just trying to do the best with what I have. On reading all the comments again I think I will try the one rectangular mirror.

    You need to go to a glass company and have a mirror cut for your space. I would add trim painted the same color as the vanity. You have another dilemma with your electrical sockets. You could either end the mirror before the electrical sockets or have mirrored plates over top.

    Frame rectangular with same color at cabinets.
