Hi, What about adding framed photos or smaller pieces of artwork that comes in 3 or 4.

Lots of small framed photos, pieces of art, plates, decorative items, can frame the mirror and make it more interesting.

I would add some wallpaper maybe with a soft metallic hue to blend with the mirror;)

LOVE the ideas. Thank you all so much. Have considered making a gallery of smaller paintings around the mirror. Would really like to try the wall paper idea...any photos? Thank you again.

You could use a new, more vibrant and exciting chandy lowered to reflect in the mirror and an upgraded ceiling fixture upstairs to replace the builder's special "boob" light. I'd replace the tap-top curtains and use poles to match the metal of new chandy. None of the furniture I see looks contemporary. Do you have some items picked out? Looks too narrow for the table m3459 is suggesting, but you can put a rectangular table right in front of the mirror and get a great contemporary effect.

Wow!! Thank you. I love the lighting suggestions and the images....need to update so many things as I transition the room from traditional to transitional / contemporary. Here's what the room looks like next to the entryway. Thank you again.

Thinking I'd like to see the rug turned and both sofas on or at least half on it.

It's a narrow L-shaped room with a fireplace on the left. Turning the rug makes it go into the dining area behind the love seat...

Could it be angled?

I would make the frame on the mirror more substantial by adding additional moldings to it. Paint/stain them a dark color.

Love deco's pictures - especially the 2nd one.

Could you upload a couple more views of the space? I'm a little confused about what is where. If you could take at least with your back to the stairs I think that would help (me anyway :)
