Using this mirror is a breeze. First, decide whether you want to hang it horizontally or vertically according to your room layout and personal preference. Find a sturdy wall and use appropriate hardware to hang it safely. When cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the mirror surface to avoid scratches. For the antique gold frame, a mild cleaner can be used, but test it on a small, hidden area first. Keep in mind that this product contains nickel, so avoid prolonged skin contact. If you have any concerns about the chemicals, refer to the warning information at www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/furniture.
