Refreshing the home

We all know that feeling we get when we haven't been at home for a while . Our home has been put under lock for a while and we need some spark to revive it.

There aren't hard rules when it comes to decorating with mirrors. Mirrors bring light and depth into rooms — they're like decorative windows you can move around and place as you like. They can reflect and emphasize views and colors from art or adjacent walls, thereby creating special effects. In the public rooms of a house, a mirror is about definition and decoration rather than checking one's reflection.
