  • Mirror, Mirror on the Wall: Powder Room Reflections

    Get creative and experiment with materials, color and shapes for the powder room mirror that you might not use in other areas of your home. The powder room is the ideal space to use opulent materials and fixtures that might be prohibitively expensive in larger areas.
