Mirrors can make the greatest change of all. There is nothing that can date a home more than the look of the bathroom or the kitchen. Yet if you’re anything like us, the thought of remodeling any part of the house is a frightening and disruptive process. When we moved into our home here in Santa Clarita over 19 years ago, all of the new homes being built put in those large, flat mirrors over the bathroom vanity.
You know the ones we’re talking about. It seemed like a nice look at the time but now it simply looks outdated. We discovered a simple way to update the bathroom without spending a lot of money or being inconvenienced. Simply changing your bathroom mirrors to a nice 1.25 inch beveled, framed custom mirror changes the entire look of the room. It makes you feel like you’ve remodeled without all of the fuss.
You may wonder why not just go out and shop for a framed mirror rather than buying a custom mirror. The answer is simple. Mirrors come in all sizes. You could spend hours trying to find just the right size with just the right frame to create the look you want. Often times you’ll end up with something that “kind of works” but isn’t really the vision you had. At FASTFRAME, we will work with you to make your vision a reality. It will be exactly what you wanted. Mirrors don’t just work in the bathroom either. Placing a mirror in a dark dining room, kitchen or bedroom in a location that enhances the natural light can brighten the look of the entire room.
Custom framed mirrors can also act as a focal point. With the beautiful moldings available today a custom framed mirror can become a work of art in any room. Or, perhaps you want to make a small room look bigger. A large mirror on the wall always makes a room feel larger than it really is. Entryways are another great place for mirrors. Entries commonly have less light and are small. Placing a custom mirror in the entry way can again brighten the area and make it appear larger.
