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.

    My guest bathroom shower curtain is black & silver cheetah print; painted my vanity black to offset the white/gray marble countertop and added a very interesting tribal wooden base small lamp. How fabulous would the Tribeca Black Mirror Mate be to finish off the look!!

    I’m thinking the Pacifica in white would be ideal for our hall bathroom.~

    I love the mirrors from Mirror Mate. I would love to have the Naples in bronze. My home is 1970’s and the mirrors really need an update. Thanks for sharing.

    Permaquid Porcelain White would be beautiful on my huge master bath mirror over the double sinks. This would be a great gift.

    Providence Oiled Bronze would really finish off my guest bathroom. We’ve bought a “fixer upper” that was terribly abused by renters and extras like a Mirror Mate would really improve the looks of the bathroom!

    Oooh, I’ve been eyeing these for the master bath, which has not one, but two, ugly builder mirrors. Tribeca burnished bronze would be a perfect accent. Thanks for allowing us to participate!

    We just moved into a new (for us) home that was built in 2002. The guest bath has one of those huge frame-less mirrors. That is where I would use mine if I won this wonderful giveaway! Since the fixtures in that bath are silver, I would choose the Grandezza Aged Silver one. Thanks Rhonda!

    I am about to put my house on the market and the guest bathroom is just there! I need a WOW factor so that the potential buyers can get excited. I would love the Grandezza Bronze frame for that bathroom mirror.

    I have been wanting to do that to the mirrors in my master and kids bath but my husband doesn’t want to spend the money! I would love to win the Acadia in Dove White.

    Oh, this is such a great idea. I would add this to my master bath. Wish I had known about this 2 weeks ago when we removed the huge mirror from the powder room!
