Using Square Mirrors for Centerpieces
Posted by Eric Morgan on 8th Jul 2014
Square mirrors make the ideal accent for centerpieces, collectibles and keepsakes. Whether it is beveled square mirrors, which lend a more contemporary approach, or a straightedge mirror that offers an intense, bold statement, square mirrors make one-of-a-kind centerpieces.
Square centerpieces are perfect for a variety of occasions and home decor.
- Wedding Centerpieces – These simple, easy to use square centerpieces are perfect for wedding centerpieces, allowing soft candlelight and floral arrangements to reflect in these tiled mirror designs. A 12” square centerpiece looks excellent with an odd assortment of pillar candles, flower petals or even confetti. Consider filling a shallow oval glass bowl with water and placing floating candles inside for a decadent, warm centerpiece. An additional idea is scattering a few votive candles and holders over the square mirror centerpiece and adding a few intertwining branches for a designer appearance.
- Candle Holders – Small square mirrors make excellent centerpieces for candle arrangements, casting a soft glow around rooms. These simple, yet classy additions are perfect for weddings, ceremonies, parties, dinner banquets, funerals, memorials, gradations, birthdays, bridal showers, anniversaries, baptisms, communions, corporate events, family reunions, graduations and much more.
- Rocks – For enthusiastic rock collectors, consider displaying collections on square glass tile wall mirrors. This is also perfect for showing off sea glass collections, allowing light to reflect through colorful shades.
- Stacking – Consider stacking wall mirrors in varying dimensions, such as 12”, 10” and 8” for a patterned look that is edgy and adds dimensional lighting.
- Edges – Opt for different styles of centerpieces for a chic appearance, such as un-beveled edges, beveled edges or antique mirrors’ distinct scalloped edge style.
- Candle Plate – These mirror “trays,” are perfect for serving drinks with a lit votive candle. Add scented candles for a wafting aroma that is sure to please guests and tickle their senses.
- Fruit – Assemble clear vases of colorful fruit, such as citrus varieties, which reflect off the modern mirrors’ centerpieces.
- Smoked Styles – Instead of opting for classic clear glass mirror centerpieces, incorporate smoked mirror hues to give centerpieces a romantic appeal.
- Framed Mirrors – Consider using an antique-style square framed mirror for a centerpiece. This adds a romantic charm to any dinner party or wedding reception.
- Tall Vases – Consider pairing a very tall clear vase of long-stemmed flowers with a variety of “floating” style votive candles. This gives a dinner party a romantic look that is very memorable.
Most importantly, when designing a square mirror centerpiece, have fun and explore creative, artistic talents. This will help encourage upscale, designer wall mirror appearances that are sure to impress guests.
