7 DIY Floor Mirror Wrap Up

The past few weeks, my master bedroom has been receiving a lot of love. From the mannequin-stand-turned-faux-lamp to the recently framed fashionistas and now a DIY floor mirror, this spot has been hot on the DIY bandwagon. My master hasn’t received much attention in the longest, so it’s high time this space gobbled up a little TLC.

I’m super excited to top of this week with the after shots of the DIY floor mirror I’ve been working on for the past couple of days. Let’s dig in…

Earlier in the week, I rounded up a simple mirror from Walmart and all of the supplies I needed to kick this project into high gear…



Then it was out to the carport to get busy. I started by measuring the wood and knew I needed two 48” and two 12” boards cut at a 45 degree angle on each end. I used the miter saw I bought myself as a little birthday happy a couple of years ago to make the cuts, but if you aren’t ready for such commitment, Shanty 2 Chic used a much less expensive method. You can also just have the hardware store make the cuts for you for practically nothing.



Once the cuts were made, I lined up the boards to make sure they fit together and used a staple gun on the corners (of what would be the backside of the frame) to hold the boards in place.



A thin bead of Gorilla Glue along the seams for added support—a little goes a loooooong way—and a quick coat of dark walnut stain…




Once the stain was set, I flipped the frame over and used a little mirror adhesive and a bit more Gorilla Glue to mount the mirror to the back of the frame. Let dry over night and I had a fancy pants new floor mirror to add to my master bedroom for just $35…

0 Material Round Up

The first and most basic lesson of DIY 101 is to gather all of the supplies you need for any project on the frontend. Nothing ruins DIY fun faster than having to make multiple trips to the hardware to store to pick up parts and pieces. I’m guilty of not always following that rule and jumping feet first into a spur of the moment project, but for my mirror revamp, I decided to be good little handy girl and follow the rules.

One boring wall mirror?…Check! I went with a frameless mirror so that I wouldn’t have to pry the mirror from the frame, but if your mirror is not as naked as mine, follow Shanty 2 Chic’s guide to de-framing your mirror.



18 feet of 1 x 8 white wood?…Got it!



Liquid nails, gorilla glue, wood stain and a staple gun?…Everyone’s here so let’s do this already!



Here’s hoping I can pry myself away from Real Housewives of (name that city) to check this mirror makeover off of the ol’ to-do list. If all goes well, there will be after pics for you tomorrow. Fingers crossed and praying to the DIY gods.

0 Knocking Out a Knock Off

I’ve been itching for another DIY project and ever since I spotted Shanty 2 Chic’s super simple full length mirror DIY, I can’t stop dreaming of the day I too can have a perfectly perfect full length mirror knock off that I’m entirely too cheap to pay $200+ retail for. Not to mention, it’s also becoming increasing more difficult to coordinate outfits without the proper mirrors to assist, as evidenced by a recent attempt to send a friend a picture of her bridesmaid dress with shoe combos. Ankles could have (and probably should have) broken.



Naturally, this mirror DIY was the perfect fit.

Step 1: Find cheap-o mirror to spruce the hell out of.

After a solid 10 minutes spent in the mirror aisle of Walmart trying to match mirrors to their corresponding price tags, I settled on this lovely little beveled beauty. With a little makeup and the right accessories she is going to rock the Rehabilitation Station.



Check back soon as I get busy giving this mirror the sass it deserves. If you want to follow along, grab a mirror and let’s do this!
