Decorate Your Garden with Mirrors

Most of us would like to have a huge garden at home but we have to make do with small gardens. And the inhabitants of big cities, above all, often have to settle for micro-gardens surrounded by high walls. They thus become really overwhelming outdoor spaces. So let's see how we can improve these small gardens using a common resource in interior decoration, mirrors.

• Placing one or more large mirrors next to the garden table will broaden the view and will reflect the candlelight in a very pleasant way.
• If we mount mirrors vertically we will be able to increase the feeling of height and if we hang them horizontally they will give us a feeling of spaciousness. We must always ensure that they are completely attached to the wall because if they are tilted downwards, the effect will be the opposite of what is sought, it will seem that the garden mirrors (Links to an external site.) is smaller by reflecting the ground.
• A mirror with a suitable frame can create the sensation of being a door or a window, which considerably widens the gaze.
• Use small mirrors to create vivid tableaux that will reflect flowers or other plants at interesting angles. These mirror tiles can be easily made by cutting out acrylic mirror sheets with a hacksaw.
• Elegant frames will help us decorate in addition to the advantages that we have told you about. Our little garden will turn out very interesting.
• The right frame and correct staging can create false doors of great beauty as in the photo above.
• There are many ways to use mirrors in the garden and it will always give us a good result whatever the desired effect. And it is a resource that will not take a big bite out of our family budget.
• Placed as you can see in the image above, in front of a small pond, it will give us a nice and relaxing feeling of having a fountain or a large pond.
• A great resource (Links to an external site.), the use of mirrors in your garden, which you can carry out in many different ways. The result will be magnificent whatever the style or way of using mirrors in your garden.

When the mirror you are going to use is under any type of cover, that is, not fully exposed to the elements, we can use any type of ordinary mirror. On the other hand, when this is not the case and the mirror is exposed to the sun, rain and other inclement weather, we will have to protect them with an epoxy resin or resort to outdoor acrylic glass.

We hope that our advice will help you to improve the decoration of your beloved but small garden. As you can see the possibilities are endless and you can start from very low budgets
