Mirror and Lights Over Vanity

last year

I’m having my ensuite painted. i have an unusual ensuite with slanted ceiling. The wall is about 94” from backsplash to ceiling in that corner. I’m thinking I’d like to put a smaller mirror but concerned it will be dwarfed in the space. The vanity is 48”. Right now its approximately 47” from backspash to light fixture. The current mirror is 36” wide and 38” high. should i leave it as is is? and what about the lighting fixture? Thanks!

Personally, I would take the opportunity before I painted, to raise the light/electrical box and get a taller mirror that would be more proportional to the ceiling height.

My ceilings are high and most of my bathroom mirrors are 48" high or taller.

Seeing as you’re painting anyway, I would suggest removing that 4” sidepiece splash for a more up to date look.

Thank you. The picture helps. A question…with the lights moved significantly higher up, will i still get good lighting for makeup etc? it’s the primary lighting in the room.

With 4 lights above the mirror it won't be a problem, the light will also reflect in the mirror. No matter the height of the vanity lights, it would be good to have another source of light in the room if it's a large room but we cannot see that in you photo.
