You have been starting at that blank wall long enough

Why not do both and add an Art Deco mirror to your room? These mirrors are wonderful additions to any dcor and many of them are a work of art in themselves.
What Exactly is Art Deco?
Art deco was a popular international art design movement that swept the world from 1925 until 1940. While most people associate this design trend with the roaring twenties, it remained popular for far longer than that. This movement was seen as both elegant and functional. It was based on geometric and Mathematical designs.
That is what makes Art dcor mirrors so unique and beautiful. While you can still get your basic shaped mirrors such as round, rectangle, square, and oval in this style of mirror, you can also get wonderful unique geometric shapes as well. Pentagons, hexagons, diamonds, and triangle are just a few of the shapes you can find in art dcor mirrors.
Sizes and Styles
Not only can you purchase Art Deco mirrors in a variety of shapes, but the styles in these mirrors run from hand held, to tabletop, to miniature of grand size wall mirrors. Some have artistic work painted on them, some are beveled, and some use a layered effect.
Due to the variety in sizes and styles of these mirrors, they will fit on almost any wall, in any room of your home, from the living room to the bedroom, to the smallest entryway. They will also fit any type of home deco from rustic to ultra modern and glamorous.
Variety of Frames
Frames on Art Deco mirrors run the gambit from simple wood frames to gilded wood. They also come in chrome, nickel, and wrought Iron. Many of these frames add even a more artistic look to the mirror having intricate scrollwork, as well as a variety of shapes.
In order to get the full effect of these mirrors and their frames you will need to see them for yourself. Many look absolutely futuristic, while others simply look elegant and chic and still others offer a bit of an old-fashioned air.

As you know mirrors can make a small room look larger and a dark room look brighter by reflecting light from other sources.

They can make an ultra modern room look even more modern and a give a country style room a look of old world charm.
