Guest Picks: Cottage-Style Mirrors for Casual Good Looks
Charming and full of character, these mirrors can hang with the laid-back decor crowd
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the cutest of them all? Seriously, though, I am trying to choose a mirror for the master bedroom, and with so many fabulous choices out there, it has been so hard! I’ve always had a difficult time finding cottage-style items locally, but with online shopping so prevalent these days (and the fact that more and more retailers are offering shipping to Canada), finding cottage-style mirrors is a breeze. Whether your casual home or cottage has a farmhouse, industrial, Shabby Chic or beachy look, one of these mirrors is bound to fit right in. — Sarah from Cozy Cottage Cute
Jamie Young Co. Jute Flower Mirror
The delicate floral design of this round jute mirror makes it a piece of art all on its own. I would love to use this large piece over my love seat to add some natural texture next to my crisp white slipcovers.
Farmhouse Wall Mirrors
A buttery yellow mirror would provide a cheerful welcome in an entryway, whether mounted on the wall or leaning on a large console table.
Oval Mirror, White
This mirror is made out of salvaged wood that was given a white, weathered finish. Its oval shape would look great over a pedestal sink in a powder room or over a small dressing table.
Iron Mirror, Small
The intricate details of this painted metal mirror remind me of antique ceiling tiles. I would add it to a neutral scheme of whites and grays so it really stands out. Of course, I would add a few other turquoise accent pieces as well.
Salima White Mirror
I think this large metal mirror would work best over a dresser in a bedroom. The details along the frame are subtle yet still create some visual interest. The bevel also adds a bit of sophistication.
Cyan Design Ashwell 17 x 17 Distressed Gray Wall Mirror
The distressed gray finish and sweet quatrefoil design make this mirror the perfect cottage accessory. I would lean it on a shelf or mantel for display, as it's too pretty to be used solely for function.
Versatile Silvery Mirror
This mirror would be perfect in a room that has a few industrial accents, like metal chairs or stools. It would also work well in a room with brushed nickel or pewter hardware.
Cooper Classics Keitts Mirror
I think this mirror would look fantastic paired with an antique dresser. The rustic patina gives it a real farmhouse feel.
Stray Dog Designs Abby Mirror, Stone Harbor
I love the petal design of this simple white mirror. I think it would look really sweet in a child's bedroom or in a bathroom for a fun, whimsical look.
Vintage Paned Mirror
This giant windowpane mirror is one of my favorites in this collection. It would easily add some architectural detail to a plain space or a rental. It would also be a fantastic way to reflect some natural light into a north-facing room.
Cooper Classics Wilkes Mirror
The chunky frame and distressed white finish have me pining for this mirror. I think it would look amazing on a fireplace mantel, with a few accessories, of course.
Sterling Industries Wood-Framed Mirror
From the bleached wood finish to the cross detail, this mirror has me dreaming about sunshine and boats. I would hang it in a windowless bathroom to give the illusion of a window, or on a small wall that needs a little bit of fun. Oh, summer cottage, how I miss you.
Threshold Inlay Antique Mirrors, Silver, Set of 3
You know that awkward space above a headboard? This trio of small white mirrors would be an easy and inexpensive way to finally fill that empty space.
Classic Antiqued Mirror
Sometimes dark finishes look great when they are contrasted with light paint colors and furnishings. I think this mirror’s delicate details would really pop against a warm white wall.
Kubu Mirror
I would hang this rectangular mirror horizontally over a crisp white dresser. The natural weave of the frame creates a warm and cozy cottage feeling.
Beach Style Wall Mirrors
This mirror is more a piece of art than a functional mirror. I love the floral design, the beaded detailing, the distressed finish and the combination of white and gray. Oh, wait; I guess I pretty much love every single thing about it!
Fish Scale Mirror
The subtle fish-scale pattern on this mirror makes it unique. It would look great in a beach cottage decorated in soft blues and whites.
Sun Driftwood Mirror
I’m pretty sure that a driftwood mirror is a coastal-cottage staple. Because I don’t have the time or patience to make my own, this version is definitely on my wish list.
Reflect Bistro Standing Mirror
I would use this large mirror over a couch or in a large entry. It's also a great piece for a large blank wall that you're not really sure what to do with. It would reflect so much natural light into the room.
Dot Border Mirror
This mirror would look great with rustic cottage decor. Even though the frame is natural wood and quite chunky, the subtle beaded detail adds some feminine country charm.
