| Love a mirror over the mantel. That said we have an inherited painting (seascape) over ours. |

Art or mirror in center - art should be landscape or abstract

| I have vases and a pretty oil painting. I would love an antique clock saw it in a magazine and loved the look. |

Trashy and the optimal height of the TV is 10 degrees max from the height of your eyes when watching. |

Definitely no on the family portrait!
If money is a concern, you can find interesting second hand mirrors that look great. |
