DIY Mirror

I was looking to create some drama in my master bedroom with a mirror that was elegant and eye popping. I couldn’t find one in my budget so I decided to make one. I had this old artwork in my garage that I wasn’t using so I used it to create my mirror. I used the frame, some spray paint and a $9.99 mirror from Ikea to get what I wanted on a shoestring budget. Let me know if you have any questions…Happy Crafting Everyone!

Step One: Find artwork with a great frame

Step Two: Start to disassemble your artwork from the back

Step Three: Separate the frame, artwork and matting
Step Four: Spray paint frame…I also painted the matting white.
Step Five: Add Mirror
Step Six: Hang and Enjoy

Spray paint really does wonders for decorating on the cheap. Might have to use this idea on a few old frames I have lying around!
