We found all these ideas in other rooms of the house, but we don't see any reason why they couldn't be incorporated into the bathroom. Some of them aren't as practical as others (especially not for anyone who likes really tall or elaborate hairstyles that require large mirrors) but they all have a fun, unique quality to them perfect for jazzing up a boring bathroom.
1) IKEA Honeycomb mirrors plus pallet This combines geometric shapes with the trend of reusing packing pallets. Brilliantly figured out on the blog Loving.Living.Small.
2) An assortment of mismatched mirrors We love the bohemian look of a bunch of mirrors, all different sizes and shapes, creating a fun collage.
3) Brightly-colored mirror frame Whether you have to add one or just paint the one your mirror has, the idea of a fun, bold color framing your face every morning is just appealing.
4) Find a fun shape Finding a mirror in an interesting shape requires a lot of hard work and a little luck, but boy it would sure pay off to have an interesting shape as a bathroom mirror.
5) Vintage tennis rackets or other unique items Even if you're not a sports fan, you can't deny how cute these rackets look with mirrors in them. We imagine this treatment could be done with a number of items, for an awesome result.

White Enamel Flatwa...
I love that red mirror. I'd totally paint one, but I have no idea how. With furniture, you can sand it a little so the paint sticks, but how do you do that if the mirror is curvy? The paint job would be inconsistent.
Love these!
I love the tennis racket idea. I do sell some vintage tennis racket through etsy and hmm..i am thinking i should take this idea for my powder room remodeling.
Pi, you can buy spray-on primer that will let paint stick to a variety of different surface, or use special spray paint for plastics and similar surfaces.
I love the third image and the fourth where the mirror is like a headboard..
As a tennis player since I was 10 in 1978, I love the vintage tennis racket idea but don't wooden rackets warp? I wish AT had actually shown some bathroom/powder room examples.
For my vanity, I put a Howard Elliott, black chateau wall mirror on its horizontal. Looks fab with cheapo broadway lighting from home depot and a vessel sink. To clean the frame, I shoot it off with compressed air (not just for the office kids!) and then a light wiping.
I love #1 -- the honeycomb mirrors mounted on a pallet is such a great idea! I love it for over the bed or even in the dining room over a buffet or something. Love love love!
Respectfully dislike #1.
I love the tennis racket idea. Now I wish I had kept the old wooden framed ones my parents had used.
We use shipping pallets at my job to hold 55-gallon drums of hazardous waste after we clean up after environmental scofflaws.
Those honeycomb mirrors are dangerously close to the late 70s/early 80s.
LOVING the tennis rackets, though.
