Frame A Bathroom Mirror

Add value to your home by giving your bathroom mirror a custom finish. Follow these steps to dress up a featureless sheet of glass without ever having to take it off the wall.


Instructions


1. Measure the perimeter of the mirror.


2. Choose crown molding from a hardware store. Molding can be primed, stainable or even made from foam. Purchase about one foot more than the perimeter of the mirror.


3. Saw the molding into four pieces with mitered edges. Measure and make the cuts so that the outside edge of the molding will line up with the edges of the mirror when placed on top of the mirror.


4. Stain or paint the molding, if desired.


5. Apply molding directly to the surface of the mirror using adhesive. Voila! A beautifully framed mirror now hangs in the bathroom!
