An Idea for Decorating the Wall Behind Your Sofa

Read the sizing notes before the shopping list. Scale is the part that is hard to return. You know that you are decorating-obsessed when you're not only decorating and redecorating your current home but you're also thinking about how you would decorate the rooms in your past home differently if you were to do it all over again. Do you do it too?

One room that I was never totally happy with in our old house was our family room – the art that I hung on the wall behind our sectional just wasn't quite right but I left it alone thinking a better plan would come to me at some point and then I'd switch it up. That time never came since we ended up moving kind of unexpectedly. But The household has seen a bunch of images lately that have me thinking that placing an oversized floor mirror behind our couch might have been the way to go like {this finished family room} designed by Sarah Richardson, {this} stunner of a living room, or these polished rooms via Restoration Hardware:

Another idea A strong choice is is placing a series of smaller mirrors on the wall behind a sofa – like these three of {these multi-paned mirror panels} (affiliate link):

A strong choice is how the use of a mirror can help make a small room feel bigger and especially love the idea of using one when it faces windows or glass doors, reflecting the outdoors! Is it something that you'd think about for your house or is art above the couch/sofa where your heart is at?

Hope you all have a great start to your week!
