While it's advertised as being part of the "kids edit", shoppers have insisted they don't just want it for their child's room.
So if you want to give your pad a splash of colour and fun twist, you've come to the right place.
Home Bargains bosses said savvy interior lovers "shouldn't settle for ordinary" and hailed the mirror as the "perfect addition" to homes.
And it seems like people are in full agreement as they've been running to get their hands on it.
One shopper shared a snap of the mirror on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, which boasts 2.6million members, and said: "£9.99 home bargains."
Her post immediately racked up 300 likes and 185 comments.
A second wrote: "Kids bedroom?! That pink or lilac one is going on my landing."
"They're not just for kids tho are they, I love this kind of decor", echoed a third.
A fourth chimed in: "Kids room? I want one for myself."
A £7.99 Home Bargains buy made my hallway look SO much bigger but everyone's saying the same thing about my DIY method
A fifth added: "I bought the one from The Range when I couldn't find the Home Bargains one, it's much smaller than the Home Bargains one. But thankfully found it yesterday so currently have both."
Meanwhile, a sixth said: "Love this mirror I want one now lol."
If you're a fan of colour in your home, then there's also an interiors trend that you may also want to take note of this year.
Colour drenching is predicted to be a huge hit for 2025 and involves using one colour on all surfaces in a room - even down to the light switches and skirting boards.
Experts say it makes rooms seem bigger by allowing walls, ceilings and built-in cupboards to all seamlessly blend in together.
By painting everything in the same shade, you eradicate any strong contrasts or harsh lines and instead allow the eyes to glide over a room.
'Colour drenching simply means painting everything the same shade: the walls, woodwork, ceiling and even radiators or furniture,' the experts at British paint and wallpaper manufacturer Farrow & Ball said.
'It's become more and more popular recently, but this way of decorating is far from a fleeting trend.
'Whether you want to make a room feel bigger and lighter or cosy and inviting, there's a way to make colour drenching suit you – it's all about which colour you choose.'

Nicole Kidman, 58, embraces her natural hair after ditching wigs as she sits in the Royal Box at Wimbledon
Nicole Kidman embraced her natural auburn locks at Wimbledon on Sunday after finally ditching wigs. The actress, 58, likes to keep her trademark hair under wraps on the screen and red carpet, opting for wigs and hairpieces to achieve bold new looks. While she didn't entirely show off her natural curly tresses, Nicole opted for a straightened look to avoid any frizz in the heat. She was seated alongside Vogue powerhouse Anna Wintour in the Royal Box, who sported her trademark blonde bob and black sunglasses. Nicole looked radiant as she fanned herself in the audience while battling the scorching heatwave. She recently gave fans a rare look at her curly hair while spending time with family in Europe. The film star was suited and booted in a white double-breasted blazer and matching trousers, which featured button detail. She wore a crisp shirt underneath the top, and added sunglasses to complete the look. Nicole looked elegant in a fedora hat as she continuously fanned herself beside Anna, who was in good spirits. As the games got underway, including the women's doubles final match, Nicole and Anna were engrossed in conversation. It comes after Nicole let her natural hair down earlier this week as she enjoyed some family time with loved ones. Nicole's niece, Lucia Hawley, 27, is currently enjoying a getaway in Croatia and took to Instagram this week to document the trip. One photo showed Lucia cuddling up to her mother, Antonia Kidman, 54, and Nicole, with the trio clearly chuffed to be in each other's company. Nicole also flaunted her naturally curly auburn hair, which cascaded down her back, in what was a rare sighting of her trademark locks. It was a far cry from the dramatically straightened look Nicole went for while attending the Balenciaga show at Paris Fashion Week, just days prior. Nicole's habit of wearing wigs in Hollywood movies and on the red carpet has earned her a cult following over the years. Appearing on Sunrise in May, Nicole admitted that she 'loves changing her hair' and uses hairpieces to achieve new looks. 'As you know, I love changing my hair,' she said. Nicole also addressed her edgy short hairstyle that she debuted at the 2025 Met Gala earlier this month. 'For the Met Gala, everyone was questioning if I had chopped my hair off. But no, I didn't,' she added. Despite defending her love of transformation, Nicole recently admitted she regrets turning her back on her natural curls. 'Why did I straighten my hair?' she reflected in an Allure interview, after being shown throwback photos from Days of Thunder. 'I loved my hair there. That is my natural hair. Isn't that crazy?' She added a heartfelt note to young fans: 'So for all the little girls out there — embrace the curl. Do not follow in my steps and straighten your hair.'

Bob Geldof says Live Aid still resonates today 40 years on
Bob Geldof has said Live Aid still resonates today, 40 years on from the two-venue benefit concert which brought together a stellar cast of celebrity musicians. The Dublin-born campaigner and rock star (73) said its resonance is why there are documentaries, radio programmes, and a musical dedicated to that day on July 13th, 1985, 'when something weird happened'. Advertisement Ahead of a special gala performance of musical Just For One Day: The Live Aid Musical, Geldof told the PA news agency: 'I was at Oasis last night in Manchester, who were staggeringly brilliant. John Kennedy, Midge Ure, Harvey Goldsmith and Bob Geldof attend a gala performance of Just For One Day: The Live Aid Musical, celebrating the 40th anniversary of Live Aid (Ian West/PA) 'So I'm buzzing, and I'm still amazed that this old guy can be so thrilled by a great rock and roll band. 'But imagine 40 years ago, seeing all of the greatest rock and roll bands, one after the other, being exceptional for free, no contracts with anyone, they had to pay their own plane fares. 'For some reason, the performances were 'other', just like the day itself', he added. Advertisement 'They rose way above and everyone hung around to watch each other.' He continued: 'I've never seen it (Live Aid) because I can't watch or listen to myself. I can't stand all the stupid things I say. 'But I saw the end of Live Aid two weeks ago, which was the Christmas song. 'And here are the greatest creative talents of the rock era, and it's like the worst ever nativity play in school, like the kids haven't learned the lines, the teachers are going nuts, and they all hung around. They wouldn't leave.' Advertisement Midge Ure and Sir Bob Geldof (Ian West/PA) He continued: 'The sheer improbable exhilaration of it… that is what resonates… It's a time when Britain did something profound with their American brothers. 'And I think it resonates particularly now, because in the sort of age of the death of kindness, which [US president Donald] Trump and [vice president JD] Vance and [Elon] Musk have ushered in.' Geldof said he think it resonates 'more' than when it was 'possible for the boys and girls with guitars to corral the political and economic structures of the world', also encouraging 'the entire electorate and population' to give over money that would help the situation. 'I think that's why you've got musicals. It's why you've got documentaries, it's why you've got whole stations dedicated to that day 40 years ago when something weird happened', he said. Advertisement Co-organiser Midge Ure told PA: 'We were in the middle of this. We couldn't see just how big this thing was. 'It's like being in the middle of a cyclone or a hurricane or whatever. 'It's all going on around you. There's a weird stillness because you're dealing with the nuts and bolts of the daily process.' The Scottish singer (71) added: 'It seems to have grown over the last 40 years. It's now a historic, social moment.' Advertisement Sir Brian May also attended the 40th anniversary event (Ian West/PA) Set up by Geldof and Ure, the movement started with the release of the charity single Do They Know It's Christmas? on December 1984 which featured a number of celebrities and soared to number one in the UK singles chart. Then, in July, a concert was held in the US and in London, with the likes of Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Spandau Ballet and Queen performed. An estimated audience of more than 1.5 billion watched the broadcast and concerts inspired by the initiative were held in other countries across the globe. The US equivalent was held at the John F Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia and saw performances from Crosby, Stills, Nash And Young, The Beach Boys, Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger and Tina Turner. A musical about Live Aid, which includes songs from Elton John, Bowie and Queen, premiered at The Old Vic theatre in January 2024 and is currently showing at London's Shaftesbury Theatre.
