Why Mirrors Co stands out
Founded by wood-craft enthusiast and maker Rodney Adams, this shop brings together sustainable materials, time-honoured techniques and a love of wood’s natural beauty. According to the “About” section on Etsy:
“Each mirror in my shop is designed and handmade with care, using reclaimed or sustainably sourced wood… Every piece is carefully chosen for its unique grain patterns and natural imperfections…”
Some of the reasons I particularly admire this shop:
-
Authentic materials & finishes – The use of reclaimed timber and rich wax finishes (English Oak wax, distressed farmhouse looks) give each mirror character and individuality.
-
Sustainability meets design – Rodney emphasizes giving new life to materials that tell a story, which is deeply aligned with the rustic, reused-wood ethos many décor lovers look for.
High customer satisfaction – The shop already has 625 sales and a 4.9★ average from over 100 reviews.
-
Made to belong in homes – These aren’t just functional mirrors; they’re décor pieces designed to enhance an entryway, living room, hallway or bathroom with warmth and style.
What you’ll find in the shop
Here are some of the standout pieces and categories:
-
Rustic mirrors with shelves – These combine the utility of a shelf (great for small plants, candles or keys) with the elegance of a wax-finished wood frame.
-
Reclaimed wood coat racks & entryway organisers – While the main focus is mirrors, the shop also features wall-mounted coat racks crafted in the same rustic style.
Custom sizes and finishes – Because each piece is handmade, there’s scope for bespoke sizing, finishes and arrangements (this flexibility is a big plus for customers who have non-standard spaces).
-
UK delivery & built for UK homes – Designed with the UK market in mind, which means finishes, materials and sizing align well with British homes and décor sensibilities.
How to style a Mirrors Co piece in your home
Here are three ideas to make the most of one of these rustic-wood mirrors (or similar pieces) in your décor:
-
Entryway focal point
Hang a large framed mirror above a console table in your hallway. The warm wood frame will soften the space, reflect light, and make the area feel more welcoming. Add a small potted plant or a stack of books on the shelf (if it has one). -
Living room balance
Use the mirror above a fireplace, sofa or sideboard. The rustic wood texture introduces a natural element into a more modern or minimalist space, helping blend styles and add depth. -
Layering in the bathroom or bedroom
A mirror with shelf fits perfectly above a dressing table or in a vanity area. Use the shelf to display a scented candle, everyday essentials or a small decorative bowl—adding function and style.

Final Thoughts
If you’re looking for a mirror (or want to find inspiration for your own mirror-making line) that blends rustic charm, reclaimed wood, and high craftsmanship, Mirrors Co is a top pick. What sets it apart is not just what’s on the wall—it’s the story behind the wood, the finish, the hands-on creation.
And for your own journey, Roddy — you have the same ingredients: craftsmanship, authenticity, brand story, multi-channel strategy. Use this shop as a benchmark for tone, quality and customer perception. Consider referencing their “handmade with care” language, the sustainable wood narrative, and the focus on design-meets-function—your own mirrors and pieces can follow and evolve from that.
