I've been in the mood to update our home lately. The first project I wanted to do was frame our mirrors! I was scrolling through Pinterest for some inspiration when I saw a DIY for a tile framed mirror. Heck yeah!
It was so easy too! I had Matt help me with taking the mirror on and off bc I'm super accident prone and I could just picture the glass shattering around me. But other than that I did it on my own!
I bought 2 sheets of backsplash tiles from Lowes along with some mirror safe Liquid Nails. We removed the track and those ugly clips on top and adhered the mirror directly to the wall. The next day I cut out the tiles individually and cleaned up half of the back because I didn't want the glue from the mesh showing on the mirror. I started at the bottom then worked my way across then up again. The trickiest part was making sure I spaced the tiles just a tiny bit so they fit perfectly.
Ion the upper half if the mirror I had to tape the tiles to the mirror so they didn't slide around! It took a couple days because I wanted to make sure the tiles stuck. But I think I definitely love it! Just have to fill the clip holes and touch up paint. :)
