A bedroom vanity mirror makes the perfect addition to your contemporary ensemble. But over time things can happen to the glass that ruins the finish and impacts the reflection. If you suspect that it’s time to replace your bedroom vanity mirror, but you’re not entirely sure, check out these signs that it’s time for a new one.

It’s Cracked

Does your vanity have cracks in the glass? If so, it’s either time to replace or fix it. One or two small cracks can be easily repaired by a glass specialist but if there are multiple cracks or they are large, it’s best to replace it altogether.

You Look Different

When glass wears down, it can change how your reflection appears. Some body parts may be wavy looking, or you may appear smaller or larger in size. If you look different when you look in your bedroom vanity mirror, it might be time to replace it with a new one.

The Frame is Warped

As your vanity ages, there’s always a risk that the trim will warp, especially if it’s made of wood. If this is the case, it’s time to replace it with a new one before it puts any strain on the glass surface.

The Lights Don’t Work

Putting your make up on or shaving in the dark is never a wise idea. If your vanity light is consistently flickering or faltering, it’s definitely time to replace the entire unit.

You Need More Space

Looking for a way to transform your entire bedroom? By simply upgrading your standard vanity to one with built-in shelving, you can give your room more functional storage space. Who wouldn’t love a little more space to store your toiletries and makeup out of sight?

You’re Ready for a New Look

If your old vanity is dragging down the look of your room, it may be time to replace it with a contemporary or trendy design that really speaks to your modern style. There are lots of vanity designs to choose from, like a double vanity that has a bridge of shelves in between two mirrors so you and your significant other can get ready for work at the same time.

Dark Spots

If your mirror is vintage, it likely has dark spots throughout it. These are difficult to remove and should only be treated by a glass expert. If the dark spots are making it hard for you to see or are just bothering you, it’s a sign it’s time for a bedroom vanity mirror replacement.
