I have finished painting my bedroom, replaced drapes and quilt set. hung a new pic. Now I need to complete accessorizing

is this mirror too boring?

My dresser seems to need some life

How high above dresser does one hang mirror. LS may move to above TV?

    I like that the mirror has 2 tones, just like the curtains do, and the mosaic [?] item..... the bird is blue - adding a needed or liked item below mirror, good?

    I do have some things around house in blue

    How high should the mirror be hung above dresser?

    "Eyeball it" - but others post that kind of guideline... maybe with other things around: window frame, etc... could the top of mirror line up [horizontally] ?? Have someone hold it up for ya!

    Nothing wrong and if you like blue - what about a Pier 1 mosaic frame? but not too busy. $80.

    With a mirror like this, you could move over your initials....the 3 over the dresser.

    I like the idea of a mirror with curved edges or a round mirror instead, which will add life and soften the room. You hang it a few inches above the dresser so you are looking directly into the middle of it at your eye level when standing at the dresser.

    Everything Manon said is exactly what I was thinking.
    Also, I know this is so small scale, but I'd get a new light colored jewelry box that's not wood. Lol even small details are important.
    But def pillows and other bedding and move tv. Id put the mirror somewhere else in room (walls we can't see).

    It appears that mirror will be reflecting person in bed. Very bad Feng Shui. No mirror if you leave dresser in that position. Could you post more pictures of room. Also, just hanging the L S letters doesn't work. They need to be incorporated with something else. Maybe a narrow picture shelf they could be set on
    with some childhood photos.

    so many suggestions. Night stand is moved. Hubbie only one who watches tv before going to sleep.... with headphones, The room is not that big. I'd like to keep it minimal as possible yet pretty with ooo's and ahhhh's

    Well it doesn't look like there's anywhere else the mirror can go. Are you wanting it for dressing/makeup etc?

    basically dressing-makeup in bathroom. And to enlarge room

    Ok well where it is is best then. I'd say two white pillows w a blue border would look best. And one blue pillow w a pattern.
    What about a white jewelry box?
    So for your other nightstand, if you can't get a matching lamp, get one that's the same height and about the same width as the other one. Stick to a white one as well. Mix and matching lamps is super in, so yay! Haha.

    Also nice throw:)

    He should put the tv on a swivel mount on the wall where it is now IMO. Where circled:

    love the way you inserted pillows on my bed. I'll check if they are there when I retire

    Those bordered ones are pretty expensive, but just an example of what I meant. Positive cheaper can be found elsewhere (other than on Houzz lol). Just FYI:)
