Old mirror

This was an easy fix for a boring mirror that I already had. I just widened the original frame with 1" x 3" pieces of wood and used a brad nailer to attach some ceiling tin I found on craigslist. I've seen mirrors like it at antique stores but could never find one for less than $600. Total cost for this project was $25.00 (for the tin and wood).

    I used your "after" picture with direct links back to you for all the instructions.
