Bathroom Mirrors & Sconces
If you want to include candles in your bathroom decor, it's a good idea to add a mirror with sconces attached to the space. Separate mirror and sconce variations also can be added to the bathroom, whether you're going for a modern and artistic, or classic and traditional look. Does this Spark an idea?

Size
-
If you have limited wall space, a small mirror and pair of sconces will adorn the space without cluttering it. Choosing an eye-catching design, such as a triangular mirror in the center of round sconces, also is ideal for a small bathroom, since it's visually appealing without covering too much of the wall. Larger bathrooms will look more welcoming with longer, oval mirrors. A classical or traditional look can be achieved with sconces and mirror borders of distressed metal or wood.
Color
-
A mirror or pair of sconces in a bold color, like red or yellow, will look great in a bathroom that is decorated in black and white, or clear and sterling silver accessories. The pop of color will make the bathroom seem brighter regardless of its size. If you've selected a mirror without a border, sconces in the color that is less featured in the bathroom are best. For instance, if the decor colors are pink and green, green sconces may work well.

Considerations
-
It may be best to position the mirror and sconces combination above the sink in a smaller bathroom, like the powder room, to make the most of the space. A longer mirror that is quarter length or full length will look great on the empty wall of a master bathroom suite, and will help to bring the decor scheme of the bathroom together.
