I would actually go about 4 inches lower. But it is in your house, so you are living with it every day so if it looks good to you, that's what matters!

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Deborah I will be lowering the mirror some more. So many people are saying the same thing so I’m taking that advice and seeing if I like it. Cause you’re right, I’m the one living with it and if I like it then that’s what matters. Thank you so much for your nice comment 🤍

[@deborahbrown9208]

@rosanaolivas If you always use tall vases and decor on that table, it doesn't matter as much. 😃

[@peggynewsome7359]

This tip might help you when hanging decor. My husbands aunt used to be an interior designer. I used to hang things to high. It’s funny that he was the one to tell me that. He said decor needs to be eye level, so that your eye follows around the room and not up to draw your eye to see cobwebs ( which I didn’t have, but you can get the meaning lol) also she would say to to divide you wall into thirds from the top to bottom, the middle section is where you want your decor. Hope this helps. Your house is beautiful.

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Peggy That’s really helpful, thank you for sharing! I appreciate the tip about dividing the wall into thirds. You made me laugh about the cobwebs 😅

[@martyward8997]

Pictures, mirrors, wall decor. Should always be at eye level..❤

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you for the tip! I’ll definitely keep that in mind for future decorating. ❤ I’m so thankful for you taking the time to leave me advice

[@lianeabeyta4515]

I think the mirror is definitely too high... but it also is out of scale with the small little console table. I would keep my eye out at thrift shops or garage sales for a small dresser with drawers. The mirror needs a heavier piece under it for balance. As for the sofa pictures... although very pretty, they also seem out of scale for the big sofa. Either three larger botanical prints, or just a larger piece of art. Adding the window trim is a fantastic upgrade to any room. I always trim windows and doorways . I agree with you, curtains would defeat the purpose of the clean lines of the trim. Also I could see a nice low dresser or heavy console table in front of the window with a nice chunky lamp, books, maybe a vase with stems, framed family photos. I am such a thrifter that these things are so affordable. I just found my entry console and hanging iron pendant light at The Restore Store/ Habitat for Humanity for only $55.00 total for both pieces.! I must say you did an incredible styling job on the little console. The large rattan vase with stems and the tray of candles totally gave more balance and weight between it and the mirror. Then incorporating wicker on the coffee table gives the room a cohesive look. Nicely done. Even the way you staggered whites and wicker and books and brass on the tall shelf was really well thought out. You got this girl!!!!

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you so much for your detailed feedback! I love the way you think! I love finding gems at the thrift stores too! 😊

[@myrnaacevedo9994]

Always eye level..

[@rosanaolivas]

Thanks for the tip! 😊

[@coryshumway6787]

Rule of thumb is 10-12 inches above the table. 😊

[@Ra_Q]

The youngins don’t know lol. You are correct. Everything she has on walls is a tad toooo high

[@rosanaolivas]

@@Ra_QI’m 44 years old so I’ll take the “youngins” comment as a compliment 😉

[@rosanaolivas]

Thanks for the tip Cory! I appreciate you helping me out 😊

[@coryshumway6787]

@ you are so welcome. You’ve got great styling ideas. Very clean lines which I appreciate. Thank you for sharing.

[@cherielittle7815]

Mirror needs to go a little lower

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you for your advice. I’ll be lowering it

[@krismatson2137]

I love the items on your shelves. They all go great together and everything looks so lovely.

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you! I had lots of fun putting those shelves together and I’m happy you like them.

[@amyunderwood2340]

According to what I found online, your mirror should be 57-65 inches from the floor or 6-8 inches from the top of the console table. Your home is absolutely lovely. You don’t have to do everything at once. Take your time, forget trends and do what you love. I agree with you about curtains. It would hide the trim you put up. Depending on what’s outside your window, you could do cafe curtains, woven blinds, or leave them the way they are. Happy decorating!

[@rosanaolivas]

I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts about the mirror placement and window treatments! Thank you for your kind comment 😊

[@cyndijackson1009]

Happy new year Rosanna!! It all looks lovely!! People better not be rude, you have the sweetest voice!! 😊💕🌸

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi my sweet friend! Happy New Year to you too! 😊 Hope you are doing well. Thank you for your kind words you have always been so supportive and nice! ❤

[@AprilHernandez-v7i]

When hanging wall decor it should be at the eye level., mirrors can also be left seating on the console specifically if it’s tall, that way u don’t nail the walls.another way is to mark it with tape then where ur sure that’s the level u like it n want it then put the decor…

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi April Those are great tips! Thank you so much ☺️

[@Spendinglifetogether]

The mirror looks perfect with the height you have with the plant. Fellow home décor KZbinr just found your channel.😊😊

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you so much! I’ve been looking at your channel, too! 😊

[@citychicdoc1596]

Just beautiful!

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you so much! ❤️

[@tessmarquez5236]

Mirror needs to be lowered from my opinion, sorry!

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Tess No need to be sorry, I appreciate you leaving me advice. I’m definitely going to lower it

[@HoneyBee-gh9zu]

Believe it or not, your mirror and pictures above the couch are still too high. Lower them some more. You'll be surprised how much better it would look. By the way, you have a lovely home.

[@rosanaolivas]

I appreciate the feedback! It's always helpful to have fresh eyes. Thank you ☺️

[@lizcullum2094]

Nice job!!

[@renatasl52]

Just came across your channel! Your home is beautiful. In my humble opinion you may what to consider shifting your focus more on the scale of your decor. Imagine if you place a larger sized mirror at the height you want. It would make a drastic difference. Also the 3 pics over the couch if you used larger pics it would definitely give you the look you’re looking for… hope this helps 😊

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you so much for the advice! I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts!😊

[@myrnaipazos8778]

Is not too low just right you don’t have to level it with the door. It looks good there.😊

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Myrna Thank you ☺️ I’m glad you liked that placement!

[@aquinopm]

The center of a mirror should generally be hung around 60-66 inches from the floor, which is usually at eye level. However, the ideal height can vary depending on the size of the mirror and the table, as well as your personal preferences: or the bottom of the mirror should be 10-12” from the table. The console table is beautiful but the table might be too low. In the end its your home and the only thing that matters is what YOU like. Everything is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your video

[@rosanaolivas]

I appreciate you sharing your interior design tips, thank you! ❤

[@marymendez4178]

I loved your decore and a little advice to you is that I would lower the mirror and those picture frames 5 or 6 inches. Now a days some KZbinrs put mirrors right on the console tables or the floor if it's a large mirror. Thanks for sharing and a Happy New Year 2025.

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Mary I Appreciate the feedback, 😊 Happy New Year 🎉

[@goodehome]

Happy New Year Rosanna! Those stems are so full and pretty in that gorgeous wicker vase ❤ every thing looks great! I have that same rattan tray from Amazon and I love it. It’s cute on your table!

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Jen! Thank you! I love how it all came together! ❤ Happy New Year

[@Yurifullady]

Good morning beautiful and Happy New Year, ❤🥰love the new year refresh and love the new flooring color you selected for your home. Great choice!❤️💋

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you so much! ❤️ Happy New Year 🥰

[@jendzendzel4052]

Happy New Year Rosana! Your home is beautiful. One of the rules that I follow is the center of whatever you’re hanging is eye level. and then i raise it about an inch or two for the taller people in my life 😂

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you! I appreciate the tip. 🙌 I'll have to keep that in mind for next time. I understand about the tall people especially since I’m only 4’ 10” 😅

[@jessa9877]

Bigger art above sofa. They are too small so they look like they are floating. Lower the entryway mirror. It looks too off as is. A round or oval coffee table will soften the squareness of the sofa and allow easier flow New windows treatment such as bamboo blinds paired with curtains Accent chair or chairs to put on the empty side of the entryway. Maybe a drink/side table between them. I feel like there's lots of wasted space at the entryway, maybe think of doing something with it. Wallpaper on the walls of the entertainment center. Definitely change the flooring. Grey is depressing.

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you for all the suggestions! I really appreciate you taking the time to give me your opinion on how to improve my home. I’ve always wanted to add 2 accent chairs with a small table in between so I think that is what I’ll be doing very very soon! Thank you again 😊

[@nadiawandawi1461]

The mirror still need to come down and plus three picture that need to come

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you for the feedback. I’ll be lowering them all again 😅 I’ll eventually get it right 😊

[@sandybitter4609]

Happy new year, I’m so glad I found your channel! Your decor is just beautiful. 🥰

Hi Rosana...your home is so beautiful! Happy New Year's! 💗☺️

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you so much! Happy New Year to you too! ❤️

[@jenberkley9623]

I’d align the mirror with the door handle next to the console table. It looks to me like 4-6’ lower. I have a piece of art I need to lower, so it happens to everyone!

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you for the advice, I appreciate you taking the time to share. I’m glad I’m not the only one 😅

[@roseyoung6471]

It looks really nice now

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you so much ❤

[@trinapemberton]

I’m just starting the video and I know nothing for sure but I swear I’ve heard that a picture/mirror should go about 10 inches above the console. I do know they’re is a technical way to figure out pictures so your looking straight at it not looking up to much. Also you have such a beautiful base to start your decorating and I think that flooring looks great with your shelf on your cabinets.

[@trinapemberton]

Okay I just finished watching it all turned out beautiful and the mirror is supposed to be eye level so you’re able to look in it. So several websites said that and the actual height above the console varied from 4-8 inches. So way lower and your photos the same way but you do what you live girl!

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Trina Happy New Year ❤ Hope you are doing well! Thank you for all the great tips!! I’m definitely no expert so I’ll take any help I can get. I love home decor and I love making my home into a beautiful place but sometimes I get things wrong. I appreciate you taking the time to send me feedback and looking into it for me as well that was very sweet of you!

[@mlenay83]

Your home is beautiful. I have the same floor. The builder chose them, not me, so I would like to update them as well. I would love to see yours as you update them so I can get an idea for my home. Thank you for your channel.

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it. I am planning on updating them soon. I’m hoping to post a living room makeover soon revealing the new flooring. Stay tuned!

[@roseyoung6471]

The mirrir looks so much better,yes. Leave it,not to low

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you Rose ❤

[@karenaleman2059]

Pictures above a sofa should be 8 -10” above the back of your sofa. Mirror should be 6-8” from the top of your console table. I know some people have a hard time with this. I’m a design consultant and have been doing this for years so I’m used to it and love it lowered. Your shelf unit looks very pretty. I don’t think I would add curtains to your windows. Blinds or roller shades are nice with many to choose from now. I like the color of the new flooring you are looking at. It will warm up the room nicely. However your home is lovely and it is your home so you should do whatever makes you happy.

[@rosanaolivas]

Hi Karen Thank you for the design tips! I'm always looking for ways to improve my home! I’ll be taking your advice and lowering the mirror and pictures ❤

[@karenaleman2059]

@ your very welcome. It may take awhile for you to adjust to it but you will learn to love it. My dad who used hang mirrors, pictures and draperies for rich people was the first to show me this. Happy decorating and enjoy

[@rosanaolivas]

@@karenaleman2059 I’m extremely grateful for you to share that advice with me! I think you’re right, I’m going to like it better. 😊 I had no idea it was too high and now I feel a little silly but oh well I’ll eventually get it right especially with the help of so many nice people like yourself.

[@karenaleman2059]

@@rosanaolivas don’t feel silly, that’s how you learn , I critique my own decor all the time

[@rosanaolivas]

[@doig18]

Art, mirrors, anything hung on the wall - the middle should be eye level for the average height person standing in front of it. So think 5 ft 6 to 5 ft 10. Most people hang things way too high so don’t worry too much, just bring it all down. Your mirror looks like it needs to come down 8-12 inches. I am leaving this comment at the beginning of your video so not sure what you did yet. If you’re hanging multiple things at varying heights then you take the middle of the hanging. Hope that makes sense? Love seeing your work though and getting inspiration!

[@sharonfranck]

Still too high

[@rosanaolivas]

In the works of lowering it all again 😅

[@lizcullum2094]

Don't go higher. If anything go a couple inches lower

[@jackieschiller3652]

Over the couch...pix still too high. Lower at least 6 inches.

[@rosanaolivas]

In the works! Thank you for the advice

[@camelliahome6534]

The mirror must be same high as your TV. Your 3 picture should be same high as your display cabinet.

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you for your tips! 🙏🏼

[@crystaldarrow9914]

It's your house, put what you want where you want.

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you for keeping it straight forward Crystal ❤

[@roseyoung6471]

Your pictures over the couch are also to high in my opinion,you could go quite a bit lower. They should not be higher then your window

[@rosanaolivas]

I appreciate the feedback! I'll play around with the placement and see how it looks.

[@deehodge5947]

Rule of thumb..pics around eye level ..darlin it's still to high lol ..after time u will get it

[@rosanaolivas]

Thank you Dee for the advice 😊 I’ll eventually get it right 😅

[@alphadiaz5134]

I think the picture in your living room are to small for that wall .

[@rosanaolivas]

I’ve thought the same thing and I’ve had such a hard time trying to find bigger art for such a big wall. Thank you for the feedback
