This year, I decided to kick off January by redoing my closet! Storage is pretty limited in my house, so I wanted to optimize the space, and give it a good refresh! One of my favorite DIY's for this project has been my DIY fancy mirror! More details below on how to take a plain mirror and give it an expensive feel & look! Let's dive in.
Step 1: Create the Resin Details
Prepare your workspace by covering it with a drop cloth and wearing gloves for safety.
Mix the epoxy resin and hardener according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Pour the resin into the silicone molds, ensuring even distribution.
Allow the resin to cure fully (typically 24–48 hours, depending on the resin used).
Once cured, carefully remove the resin pieces from the mold.
Step 2: Attach the Resin Details to the Mirror
Lay out your resin pieces around the mirror’s edge to determine placement.
Apply a strong adhesive to the back of each resin piece and press it firmly onto the mirror’s frame or edges.
Allow the glue to dry completely before moving on to the next step.
Step 3: Paint the Trim Gold
If using spray paint, cover the mirror’s reflective surface with painter’s tape to protect it.
Apply a few thin coats of gold spray paint to the resin trim, allowing each coat to dry before adding the next.
If using acrylic paint, use a paintbrush to carefully coat the resin pieces with gold paint.
Let the paint dry completely before handling or displaying the mirror.
