 Stunning baroque mirror We love this large black baroque style mirror that we found on the Chic Boutique Interiors website.
It looks great simply propped up casually against a wall, but it would look equally stunning hung from the wall.
It measures 114cm by 168cm in size and costs £275 from Chic Boutique Interiors.

 Fun and funky Bubbles mirror
There are lots of great Italian modern furniture design companies and Calligaris is one of them.
The Bubbles mirror certainly lives up to its name, with several round pieces of mirror of different sizes arranged in random ‘bubble’ shapes.
The mirror is available in several finishes, including glossy white lacuqer, glossy black lacquer and wenge stained oak veneer. It looks great hung on its own, but equally good with two together.
You can buy the Calligaris Bubbles Mirror from Mac & Mac for £217.

 UK mirror map Maps and globes often crop up in home decor and home accessories, but this is the first time we’ve come across a United Kingdom one in the form of a mirror.
This two piece mirror comes in the form of a realistic looking map of Great Britain and Ireland (Ireland being the second part of it).
If you want to have a map on your wall, but also happen to be in need of a mirror, then it’s the perfect solution. This version measures 60cm in diameter (a smaller 40cm one is available too) and costs £47.95 from Toys and Interiors.

 Funky shaped mirrors
Straight lines certainly have their place in a home, but if you want to add something different to your walls, then how about these funky shaped mirrors?
The funky mirrors have rounded, polished edges and are produced in shapes that you generally won’t find elsewhere.
If an asymetrical mirror floats your boat, then they’re available in three different sizes from Home Frenzy. They’re sadly not cheap - prices start at £207 - but they don’t half look good.

 Bird design magnetic memo board
On our continued quest for the perfect magnetic memo board, we’ve discovered this gem on sale from Dutch By Design.
The bird mirror memo board stands out from other magnetic boards as it’s got a lovely reflective mirror finish and it will fit in well with any decor scheme.
A bird design - two birds sitting perched on twigs in a leafy setting - is etched onto the board. The memo board itself measures 39.5cm by 29cm and it comes with two dinky flower shaped magnets.
Best of all, we think it’s very affordable compared to some other magnetic memo boards, as it’s priced at £19.50 from Dutch By Design.
We’re very tempted. What do you think?

There’s a new shop on the block and, if you love coastal inspired interiors and home accessories, then you’re likely to enjoy Florestine.

We’ve had a good browse through their home products and can confirm that they do indeed have some gorgeous items. Here are a few of our favourites.
 Handmade Rimini Blu bird This delightful blue bird is handmade in Italy and is part of the Rimini Blu collection, originally created in the 1950s by designer Aldo Londi. The bird is ceramic, glazed in shades of blue and turquoise reminiscent of the Mediterranean Sea and is positioned on the top of a metal pedestal.
The Rimini Blu bird is priced at £79.
 Final Harbour 2 Final Harbour 2 is an image that evokes many memories of holidays by the sea. It was taken by an award-winning French photographer and has been printed onto canvas. The piece measures 40cm by 40cm in size and costs £49.
 Shoaling fish mirror A distinctive shoaling fish embossed design is the highlight of this large metal, silver coloured mirror. It measures 59cm by 47cm and costs £195.

 Lombardo venetian mirror
Mirrors are a lovely addition to rooms in your home and can provide a much-needed extra sense of space in smaller sized rooms. There are a wide variety of mirrors available, from classic to contemporary and everything in between. Big, bold mirrors are ideal if you want to make a design statement or have the mirror as a centrepeice on your wall, but sometimes you just want something that blends in well without being overpowering.
If you’re after a simple, but beautiful mirror, then this venetian mirror from the Chandelier and Mirror Company is ideal. A plain and simply designed mirror, with bevelled edges, it would fit in well in any room of the house. It’s priced at £78.99 and, if you’re based in the UK, that includes shipping too - bargain!
