I agree with the suggestion to try turning this mirror vertical. I think that would make the lines of the mirror match up better with the lines of the headboard. At the same time, it would elongate the vertical lines of the room which should reduce some of the heaviness of the mirror itself.

I think that the coloring of the frame itself is a little bit off for the room. I wonder if it would be worthwhile to paint it to a lighter color (rather than keeping the natural wood coloring) so that the room is lightened up even more and that "heaviness" is decreased?

Also wanted to say that I really like these posts where everyone's trading design ideas. How inspiring! Am wondering if any one here has ever used sites like Houzz.com where this type of idea sharing is the primary focus of the site? Nothing replaces Apartment Therapy as a blog but I'm interested by how these other types of sites are being used by design-minded people as well.
