Mirror Size vs Console table
Comments (2)People often hang mirrors in foyers so they can check their appearance coming and going. I think the mirror you're considering may work, since its open scrollwork won't read as "heavily" on the wall as a mirror with a hefty, solid frame might. Ideally, the console would be the same size or just a tad longer than the mirror. Would you consider shopping for a new console that is longer and move your ghost chair out of this space (it looks a bit cramped where it is). If not, just use your current console and buy the mirror since you love it. It may not be IDEAL, but it'll be fine....See MoreDo you think the size of this console table is ok?

Comments (6)Very good thoughts, thank you. Yes, I am open to putting a piece of art over the console table. It would likely add some needed color. I can probably place an oval mirror in the front foyer part of the entrance. I'll look in Etsy at some paintings to see if there is anything interesting. I am very open to suggestions. THANK YOU so much....See MoreHelp with entryway proportions: Console + Mirror sizes?
Comments (7)Bigger is better as you're realizing. The console can be as wide as 75% of the space between the blue tape and the bedroom door. Then the mirror can be as wide as 75% of the console's length and should hang 5" above it. Does that help? Don't forget a striking area rug and light fixture! Do you still have matching paint to use on the vent above so it fades into the wall?...See MoreTheresa Janssen
