Framing a Mirror with MirrorMate: Giveaway

{Giveaway is Closed}

The winner is #112:  Shari!  Congrats, Shari, you have been emailed!

With all the things to update in this house, it’s been fun to get some help from MirrorMate on my guest bath mirror.  You know how it goes.  Those large plate glass mirrors that are all over the place, with not a lot of personality.  I have framed my own before and they turned out nice, but it’s also great to have a professional frame go up on a mirror too.  It totally transforms the space.

I’ll do another complete post on this bathroom later, but wanted to share the MirrorMate opportunity with all of you now.

I got to choose a frame from MirrorMate and they shipped it to me to install.  And installing a frame from MirrorMate is very easy.  For a large frame, you will need two people to help hold it in place, but the frames go together very easy and fast.

frame from MirrorMate

It comes in a box in 4 pieces.  Once you measure your existing mirror, you send those measurements to MirrorMate, along with your frame choice and they will cut the frame to exactly fit your mirror.  The frame sits on top of the mirror, overlapping just slightly to completely cover the mirror.

putting frame together

Lay out all 4 pieces on a protective rug or cardboard.

add inserts and glue

It comes with glue and corner anchors that go in each corner of the frame to hold it all together.  Notice on the frame above, there is double sided extremely sticky tape that is already on all the pieces of frame.  Once you get ready to put the frame up, there are also cardboard corners that help with setting the mirror in place before the tape is pulled and ready to adhere.

wipe excess glue

Once it’s glued in the corners, simply wipe off excess glue and let it dry well overnight and then it’s ready to put up on your mirror.

My dad came over to help me get it in place, cause with a mirror this big, you really need 2 people to hold it.  Pull off the protective paper from the sticky tape all the way around and simply place it over the mirror.  It’s stuck and will not come off!  There are also protective cardboard corner pieces to help with installation too.

Tribeca Frame

Now you’ve got a beautiful framed mirror.

Yippee!!  MirrorMate is giving away to ONE of my readers a mirror frame of your own.  I’m so happy to be working with them and to get a beautiful frame for my bathroom.  This one is called Tribeca and it’s a gorgeous black finish with small beads of silver all around the inside edge.  Perfect complement to my bathroom.

I’ll show you the whole bathroom soon too!

In the meantime, leave a comment telling me which bathroom you’d love a frame for and which style and color you think you’ll pick?!  Go to MirrorMate to check out all the styles and come back here and leave a comment. 

That’s it!  I’ll choose a winner in a few days.

Note:  I received a free mirror frame from MirrorMate, but was not paid to do this post.

    I would love to update my contractor grade master bathroom. A MirrorMate mirror would definitely set the tone and get the ball rolling for some changes. If I were lucky enough to win I think I would choose the Chelsea Pewter Bronze. Thanks for the opportunity.

    Oh, please pick me! I have these ulgy mirrors glued to the walls in 3 bathrooms. Please help me make at least one of them beautiful. If I could do one I know the other two bathrooms would follow not too far behind. I would love to have the Tribeca Burnished Bronze and Silver…so pretty!

    I love them all. I would love either the Lexington Metallic Ash or Cherokee Natural Cherry in my hall bath. I do love the Providence style for my large master bath mirror. I would definitely need help with my selection. . . I think I would need to seek input from Rhoda. 🙂

    Definitely need this!! We have a HUGE mirror in our bathroom that needs to be updated. It might even inspire me to paint the darn cabinets below it. An upcoming wedding will probably suffice to get me moving – but really, am I going to invite guests to our master bath??

    Rhoda,
    I would love to have the same mirror you have. My master bathroom is a beautiful shade of blue and the tribecca mirror would be perfect. I have the very plain, very ugly mirror with the movie star lights above. It is so bad I hate going into my bathroom.HELP!!!
    Thanks

    I would love to win the Chelsea Classic White frame for my bathroom. It would be a great way to add charm and cover that little area where the silvering has come off.

    If I won, I would let my daughter-in-law pick a frame for her master bath. Win/win… she gets a cool frame; I get mother-in-law points!

    It would be a wonderful Christmas present if I could get the Pacifica White Cap to cover the large mirror in our main downstairs bath. What a nice generous gift.

    I so need a bright spot today. Last Friday we sold a home that was as close to paradise as I could imagine. Work is taking us to another state and today we purchased our new house. I know everything will be good again, but I chose every item in our last house as we completely remodeled it ourselves. A new frame for the giant, plain, not so clever mirror in our master bath might just put a little smile on my face again 🙂 and I will gladly share pictures of the makeover with you!

    How did you know I was planning a re-model of my master bath? I would pick the Old World Silver Pemaquid or maybe Pemaquid Slim- simple, elegant and fits the vision in my head!
