![]() Thin trim detailing – $4.48 for 4ft (I used 3x pieces) = $15 That adds a huge impact on a small budget! I think this would also look fantastic on a builder grade bathroom mirror if you don’t want to remove the existing one! Budget breakdown of my DIY Anthropologie Mirror: Once you’re done, take a look at your mirror. I didn’t use glue because there’s only a very small surface that actually attaches to the mirror. Add a square of double-sided tape to the ornate corner detailing. My corners ended up being a little bit off when I taped it to the wardrobe, but it wasn’t too worried because I knew the ornate corner detailing would cover it up for the most part.Ĥ. Make sure that your placement is exactly where you want it to go. Once you stick it onto your surface it is near impossible to remove. I used double sided tape to add the trim to make the mirror frame much more substantial. I taped my trim directly onto my PAX wardrobe, but you could alternatively built this on a piece of plywood first and then hang up the entire piece of plywood.ģ. Once the glue is dry hang the mirror up on the wardrobe or wall. You could also use clamps but I didn’t have mine nearby.Ģ. I used E6000 and then I put some heavy items on top (mirrors) to make sure that the glue would really adhere. Use a strong hold glue to glue the thin trim on to the mirror.You can use nail polish remover to wipe it off. If there is any spray paint on your mirror, don’t worry. Will help the spray paint adhere to the frame.ĥ. My frame was a plastic, so I sanded it with P220 grit sandpaper. Then cover up the middle of the mirror with leftover cardboard or bottom. Try to get as close to the frame as you can. With one coat the spray paint can look lumpy.Ĥ. It’s to do two coats versus one heavy coat. Give your spray can a good shake and use long, light coats of spray paint. I recommend boxes that will hold the smaller pieces and a drop cloth for the longer pieces. If the corner trim won’t cover up the seam, make the mitre cut on the ornate trim.ģ. I didn’t bother with a mitre on these since the ornate corner trim will cover the seam. This trim will sit on top of the existing mirror frame. Here’s an example of why the mitre cut is so important.Ģ. Cut the edges on the mitre so the trim lines up perfectly. ![]() This moulding will sit outside the existing mirror. ![]() Measure and cut the wainscotting moulding to size, depending on your mirror.Make sure to order 2 right, and 2 left pieces) Ornate wood corner pieces (I used 2 packs of the corner pieces.Something heavy (books, or small cans of paint, wood blocks).And look how beautiful it turned out!!
