Yay but not for that wall. Too busy! You need very simple on that wall.

Re: yay or nay for my DR?

It's Pier 1. It looks better in person...

The reason I want this one is because it's not solid so you can still see the stencil through the openings AND the location is opposite my staircase so it's not really reflecting anything "pretty"...

Nay. Too busy and too modern IMO for that wall.

I would do just a plain simple large rectangular mirror on that wall.

Maybe either a beveled mirror or something that will match the finish of your chandelier.

Re: yay or nay for my DR?

i think the little circles are what make the mirror seem "busy."

not sure if these are your style, but i can see how you would not want to cover up that gorgeous stenciled wall. these are sunburst mirrors and more for decoration, but they allow you to see the wall.

Love the mirror, but I think it competes too much with the wallpaper.

These I like! I really like the first you posted, too, but I agree that it's too busy with the stenciling. I love that stencil though!
