Framing a Bathroom Mirror?

I am making some updates to my master bathroom. We have changed the fixtures (plumbing and electrical) and repainted. I was thinking about framing the existing mirror and wondering if anyone has already tackled this project.
Thanks for your help!

I would use molding as the frame. Many styles to choose from at Lowe's and HD. You could stain or paint it!

 

It's easy and a great DIY project! Go for it!

 

Thanks for the comments and your encouragement to take this on myself (If you only knew me you might feel differently). Usually I end up spending way more time than I think I will and wish I had just purchased something. But then again there is that satisfaction of doing it myself...I will let you know which way I go.

 

using mosaic tiles would make it more attractive. i have applied it and i find it great. maybe you should also try it.

 

These ideas are great, and at one point or another, I have used them.

Which one to go with would depend on the style you are creating. I get a very different feeling from a crackled frame than a mosiac one even though both are very beautiful.

Also, If you don't want to tackle this yourself, I have often asked art students to do a project for me. They're really creative, could use a couple of bucks and sometimes can use the project for an assignment.

Good luck!

 

^Indeed. A basic DIY wood frame--properly finished and painted of course--could even work depending on what kind of look you're going for. Best of luck.
