Scalloped mirror in Old bathroom?

10 years ago

We have an inherited mirror from my husbands side that fits perfectly (once hung) over the bathroom vanity. The problem is the scallops on it. Any possible way this can look ok ? The dark stain on the mirror frame does match the dark stain of the vanity. I'm so sick if working on this bathroom that I can't see straight anymore.

i think it (oddly) looks great. i believe that the navy and white give a crisp nautical look and the scallops look like waves.

its the combination of crisp and wavy.... dark and light.... i'd hang it.

Really??? I would choose to use that somewhere else but I have no idea what your bathroom looks like and IMO there nothing special about the mirror

I'd say no to the mirror in its current finish. It might look better painted, but my suggestion would be to leave it as is and try to find a spot for it elsewhere in your home.
