These entryway mirrors need to be in your home

No matter if they are big or small, entryways are one of the most important spaces in a home. They are the first and last places you and your guests walk through, so outfitting them with functional pieces that add to their aesthetic is essential. A mirror serves two main purposes—a place to get a final look at yourself before stepping out and opening up the area without taking up valuable floor space.

One of the main things to consider when shopping for an entryway mirror is what you need in the space. If your foyer is dim, find a larger option so it reflects the most light possible. If you need a place to hang keys or a purse, an entryway mirror with hooks will work best. Maybe you need a place to put down mail or want to display small accent items? Look for one with a storage shelf included. And, of course, any entryway mirror is a chance to add a feature that elevates the space and showcases your personal design taste.
