“If you want to do what the designers do and do it at a fraction of the cost to elevate a space, here’s how you do it,” said Nina Takesh (@ninatakeshofficial).

She showed an image of a designer-looking dining space with a long table and chandelier – but she thought the mirror in the back was the real star of the stylish decor show.

“Aged mirrors are one of the most expensive things that designers use in the homes of their clients. And especially when they have that faux finish, the price literally starts to double,” she said.

Still, Nina was not going to let that stop those with smaller budgets from getting the same “luxe look for less.”

“You can do the exact same thing, create the same effect at a fraction of the cost, and guess what? I’ve got the source because there’s no gatekeeping here,” she said.

She was about to share her design secret as she showed an image of an equally stylish – but much more affordable – mirror.

“Where you can actually do this and create a fantastic high-end look, here’s the source. It’s called Atelier 26 Boutique, it’s a shop on Etsy,” and they have a variety of mirrors that you can buy,” she said.

The shop offered mirrors that could simply be stuck onto the wall.
