Dear Mary,

With that style of radiator I would go for a traditional style large mirror.

removing the door to kitchen would be easiest & cheapest way to open up & brighten the hall area. Next best, but more costly would be replacing door with one with glass panels. Look for used one in 2nd hand or @ your local Habitat for Humanity store. Keep the one you take off just in case other one gets damaged and needs to be replaced. Replacing only two panels would not achieve much I don't think. A mirror should only be placed where it can reflect something of interest & expand the room. If I recall, the staircase is what would be reflected? A photo collage frame? I think more colour is called for here. Your home, your choice. Bottom line is you decide what is right for your space. As you have likely noticed everyone has a different opinion, professional or not. Most important in re-styling a space is what the home owner wants to use the space for & to be their taste.

Lighting, a mirror and a reflective floor would help with the lighting. Another clever trick would be to open some the space between wall studs for shallow display niches.

Hi Odette! Have you had any progress with decorating? Hanging a mirror could be good in terms of light reflection and making a space seem bigger than it is. I like your idea with the photographs and horizontal lines - I might add some adjustable spotlights to make a feature out of the photographs! For e.g.

Hello Mary, If it's an old fashioned style then I say show it off! People pay a lot for these... I would choose mirrors that have an antique feel if this is the feel of the house... Even ultra modern styled homes have period fittings and they work beautifully.. If the hall is small then perhaps you want to think of something that might continue down the hall... so maybe you buy a couple and space them accordingly...

Choose something that has good dimensions according to the height of the hall... This will also throw light into it and give it a feeling of space... So the mirrors can be functional as well as aesthetically pleasing.. : ))

Hi Mary. Why not Pop a shelf over the top if you can't fit any furniture in? I'd go for a slightly traditonal round mirror, depending on walls colours, floor etc maybe in silver, black or even the pewter.

Definitely something traditional or antique looking, perhaps you'll be able to find something in cast iron. Antiqued mirror tiles could look amazing too, as a slightly different take on an actual mirror.
