It's a very sweet room ;) Not sure what on the other side of it, but I think it might be worth hanging the decorations up to add height to the design. Also, the lamps on the wall look a bit lonely with the decorations sitting lower down.

It is a cute room, for practical reason I would replace mirror with some artwork. The mirror on that level seems to me not so much useful. / Marcin

I used to have a propped up painting like that on my similar dining room sideboard- same as you it started as temporary but i liked it so stayed. But i found if certain doors were open at the same time a rush of wind used to knock it down with a huge bang (and possibly sometimes a cat!) May not be an issue for you, just my experience

An alternative might be to put up a small picture shelf and prop the paintings up on that. It then gives you the freedom to rotate them as much as you like.

Thanks everyone! Great ideas. I've actually now got a picture shelf on the wall behind the armchair, but I wondered about doing that above the sideboards too. I agree the lamps are a little lonely at the moment! I'll let you all know what I end up doing! Thanks again

This is such a pretty and restful space. The wall lamps could highlight artwork nicely. Choose the same size frames with complimentary colours/scenes. Alternatively have a mirror under one wall light and a picture under the other.

We're not designers or interior decorators, but the way it is looks great already :) maybe even less is better, to make sure you highlight and focus on what you really want to see.

I'd replace the mirror with a great big piece of art above the fireplace and redistribute the smaller pieces of art from the sideboards elsewhere in the house. Then maybe you could get some new objet d'art to put on them.

Have you tried replacing the mirror for something larger & more decorative? pewter/ silver finish looks lovely, but maybe a carved wood/ driftwood could look really wow too! beautiful room as it is though :)

The room looks beautiful and I like the art placed on top of the sideboards. I think if you placed some art under the lights then it may draw the room down. Sorry for the off topic question but please could you let me know where your sofa is from?

I love the informal look of your pictures at the moment. I'd agree about picture ledges as they'll keep the informal look and mean you can still swap things around easily. Plus, i think it'll look good if the pictures were slightly higher and the best bit is that you'll clear a load of space on your furniture which will make it much easier to clean!

Hi Sarah Chapman Thank for your comment! The Sofa is from DFS (it's the Tote range)

If you want your mirror to stand out or to create more of a feature why don't you paint the middle third of the wall a deep navy, darkish but warm grey or even a darker shade colour of your chest of drawers? Will make your fireplace & stove & mirror stand out. This will give it a bit more structure and depth.. but am liking it. Any finished pictures?
