Mirrors are an inexpensive way to bring more light into a room. When one is added to a dining room, it’s like adding jewelry to an outfit. You may not realize how much character and flair it brings until it’s installed. We have collected twenty-seven ideas for a dining room with a mirror.

Best Dining Room Mirror Ideas. Decorate your dining room with mirrors to add more style and make it look bigger. Mirrors make a great accent piece for a dining room. #decorhomeideas

Your room’s style, including any trim or moldings, will dictate the mirror type best suited for your dining area. Adding a mirror in your dining room should match the table and chairs.
