Top 7 Full-Length Mirrors For Airbnb

You don’t always have to be a Disney princess to appreciate a good mirror. Mirrors are not only functionally useful for a lot of grooming tasks but they also give the room an illusion of size. They reflect light which makes the room feel bright and welcoming. They can even be intricately designed becoming a centerpiece for any room or just blend in with the rest of the furniture with a simple muted design. You cannot go wrong with this addition to your Airbnb. Your guests will appreciate the usefulness and it will also liven up the place.

What to look for in a mirror?

There are many considerations you have to make here. Let’s look at them one by one.

1. The size of the mirror depends on the functionality and its placement. You preferably want a full-length mirror in the bedroom but want something small and easy to hang in the corridor or near the main door. Get accurate measurements so that you know you are going to have enough space to hang the mirror.
2. The style of the mirror frame should match the rest of the furniture in the room. Contemporary rooms are enhanced by mirrors with a minimal look. Traditional rooms demand something ornate that would blend in with the other flowing patterns in the room.
3. The shape of the mirror will depend on the design language of the room. If you have blocky straight edge furniture then it makes sense to get a rectangular mirror. If you have some curves in the couch, tables, or bed then get an oval mirror that will fit in with the rest of the rounded shapes in the room. There are other choices that you will encounter if you look in magazines or online which include teardrop, antique, geometric or sunburst. Not all of them are appropriate for full-length mirrors.
4. The quality of the mirror is determined by the silvering, which is another name for the coating that enables a regular piece of glass to act as a mirror. It is made of silver nitrate usually mixed in with other compounds. A thicker coat of silvering makes for a higher quality mirror. 
5. Smart mirrors are a thing. They are expensive but if high tech is your thing then imagine the surprise on your guests’ faces when they wake up in the morning to brush their teeth and the mirror tells them the weather update!

AOOU Jewelry Organizer Jewelry Armoire: Taking on double duty as a mirror and armoire, this one kills two birds with one stone. This has an armoire built into the mirror. It has 120 earring slots, 90 ring slots, 24 necklace and bracelet hooks, 5 different depth compartments, 3 boxes, and 1 hanging rod. That may seem like a lot for an Airbnb but it can also be used to store other knick-knacks that the guests may have. The inner cabinet is lined with velvet and the mirror has 2 keys to keep the goods safe.

It is a durable mirror with a 5 mm pure silver lens that adopts international environmental standards. This too has an explosion-proof membrane and scatter prevention. It can be leaned against a wall or it can be hung for some pace savings.

Precautions to take:

Mirrors are very delicate. Make sure the item delivered is intact if you purchase online. Try to find one with a return warranty for peace of mind.

You need to stock up on cleaning liquids because mirrors require regular cleaning and care. Get a soft cloth to use just with the mirror. Try to keep it moisture and spot-free as much as possible.

Pay attention to the setup process for the mirror. One loose screw or wrong connection will get you something that looks like it is stable when you install it but will come crashing down in time.
