I'm doing a bathroom reno now and can't find a mirror big enough, plus my existing and very old builder grade mirror seems to be glued on, so I was thinking of framing it like this. I'm wondering what you did with the visible edges of mirror on the outside... Did you leave them exposed? Paint them?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864440348961977120.post-1228452919441873222014-10-07T19:57:24.507-06:002014-10-07T19:57:24.507-06:00glad you added about the mirror clipsglad you added about the mirror clipsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864440348961977120.post-63186817460668856832014-01-13T19:25:56.179-07:002014-01-13T19:25:56.179-07:00Yes, it did.

I applied mirror mastic (a special adhesive for mirrors) on the back of the mirror to hang it on the wall without the screws and hanging hardware. Once the mirror was back on the wall without the screws and mirror clips, I was able to attach the frame.

I didn't want to even try to miter 45 degree corners. so I used the square corners and some stained 1x4s to go around the door frame.

After removing the mirror, I unscrewed the plastic pieces from the wall. Then I used mirror mastic, which is a type of adhesive just for mirrors to stick the mirror back on the wall without the plastic pieces. The mirror is very large and heavy and I wasn't sure the adhesive would be strong enough to hold. Mirror mastic works exceptional well, it's practically permanent.The Pin Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06309686215010685162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864440348961977120.post-17863700171197557952013-09-19T20:35:11.576-06:002013-09-19T20:35:11.576-06:00I really like your update.

As a result, the room appears bigger.<br /><br />A frame like that inspires other ideas. For example, you could use a stencil to put something interesting at each corner, or find a beautiful dye and change the color if you get bored with the shade.<br />Homesav couponshttp://homesav.bluepromocode.com/homesav-promo-code/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864440348961977120.post-20025653718917508142013-07-06T08:29:34.886-06:002013-07-06T08:29:34.886-06:00Yes, I had the plastic clips that held the mirror ...Yes, I had the plastic clips that held the mirror in place. I unscrewed the clips and removed the mirror from the wall when I removed the wallpaper and painted. When I replaced the mirror I used mirror mastic, a glue specially made for mirrors, and just glued the mirror to the wall. I didn't need to use the clips, but I will never be able to move the mirror again. That glue is permanent! Then I glued the frame onto the mirror without worrying about the plastic clips getting in the way.
