Frame mirror

How to frame a mirror?
I found a frame that I really like at ikea (it is oval shaped) and I want to make it a mirror. How would I do this without a glass cutter, r any handy skills for that matter
The only 2 ways to do this without a glass cutter, or any handy skills would be:
1. Find a mirror the right size, pre cut.
2. Pay someone to do it for you.

Oh, I love old built-ins! I used to live in a fantastic 4-flat in Chicago. Oak everything, claw-foot tub, the works and I LOVED IT. Just before we put our house on the market we had a stager come in. She made us take down and put away like, EVERYTHING. I don’t believe in painting walls, I just hang art (looks like you do too). Anyway, it opened up the space a ton and now I’m rethinking my massive clutter too. But then again, we’re moving. I like the rug. A lot. Keeps stuff vintage and cool. Definitely liking the painting of the sideboard idea. It looks like it has brass fixtures? As does that funkadelic, hot-to-death lamp? You could also do a cool matte brass metallic paint on the black framed mirror. Then it would coordinate, not be matchy-match and lighten things up some more. T30SB’s 2 cents.
[...] ReStore Ramblings (…) Oh and don’t forget to check out the wonderful variety of framed mirrors in all sizes and shapes. So stop procrastinating and beautify your living spaces. Restore prices for framed art start as low as $5! Habi-titus. [...]
Eh, in all honesty I went with two colors I knew would be VERY common in the ‘dorm room sections’ of most big stores. Lime green, and pink. With that, I bought my pink/green plaid ‘bed in a bag’ from Burlington Coat Factory. It’s Tommy Hilfiger and the sheets are pink with little green whales all over them, which are quirky and very cute. I believe I got it for 60 dollars. Other than that, the only thing I have is my pink desk lamp, green jewelry box from sterilite and a ‘vintage’ post card from Austin, TX that has a picture of a handkerchief and the word ‘panky’ underneath it. I also just got a frame from ikea for 5 bucks. If I had anymore money I would get a Ziggy Stardust poster though…
It's defiantly interesting and has some serious possibilities. I found it a tad slow, though. I didn't really see that much difference between the two girls other than at the outside level. The style you use to write them both is pretty much the same. Maybe you could try to give them each a distinctive flow in their POV.
Answer mine?

I've noticed that most kids named Dylan are douchebags.
i lovedd it…your right, life is digging through the bullshit to find something genuine. LOVE IT keep writing:)
Just livening up drab rooms with paint is a huge *wow* in decorating on the cheap. We moved into the FUGLIEST old house ever. LR had orange stained pine planks on the walls. Super high ceiling, but it was falling apart, a ghastly torn up linoleum floor. We sanded, primed and painted the walls, then painted the high ceiling a darker contrasting color. Tore up the linoleum to find 1910 raw fir floors underneath. We finished the floors ourselves, now a shiny deep brown. Our friends & family were stunned at what we did with the place.
I love the heart-of-shells, Patty. I'm a California beach girl and love wandering for hours collecting shells. I'll have to share a pic of one of my shell-framed mirrors sometime soon.
I rent a house to use as my office/studio space, and it's decorated in shabby beach style pulled together quickly when I first set it up. Lots of shells in baskets and surrounding candles on plates, and a nice variety of beachy photos and prints, all mixed in with overstuffed creamy white sofas (3 in all, none match, all from local consignment stores), lots of baskets, and all of my favorite things. And, currently, all under a foot or two of eBay items that need to be listed so I can reclaim my personal retreat space
)
Right here on my desk at home, I have a sweet pink heart print from Ikea … a heart shape made from two scallop shells posed side-by-side. The print is really a 5″ x 5″ notecard, one of the ones from a pack of 5 cards with shell pics. If you have an Ikea nearby, they probably have this set of cards.
Enough rambling, thanks again for stopping by, and have a great week!

I really like the Uttermost Sinatra Wood Framed Mirror – 11291 B at CSN. Thanks for the giveaway!megalon22 at yahoo dot com
find some nails with a big head and hammer two or three along where the bottom of the mirror would be… then place the mirror on it… take a pencil… make a line at the top… remove mirror… hammer a few more nails jus a lil above the line…. place the mirror back on then CAREFULLY hammer the nails down until the head holds the mirror in place…….. they sell clips but if you cant afford two sided tape.. (I wouldnt do it anyway).. thats a cheaper or free way to do it anyway…THEN tape it up if you want to hide the nails…. use a sharpie to decorate it with cool designs or stickers.
Sheila, sheila, sheila…you have to make a choice tonight? You are worse than me and I am always making selections under pressure, which is not always a good thing.
First of all, don't sacrifice. Don't make a rushed decision to get something done, because it's on sale or it's in stock. You will regret it. Trust me on that.
Here's my quick answers…note that it is 11:30 at night and I just happen to be a night owl
You asked…Wouldn’t it look odd to have a fixture hanging from the ceiling over each mirror if we have canned lights?
My answer: YES, If he made the decision for canned lights, you pretty much need to go with wall hung fixtures to complement, unless there's a great location in the center or over a tub for a chandelier…I'm a sucker for chandeliers and I like them with sconces as well!
You said…He also proposed sconces (in lieu of hanging fixtures) but I don’t think this would work because because the countertop is L shaped with 2 sinks. When you enter the room, there is a sink directly to your right and the other one directly in front. There is very little wall space between where a mirror would go over the sink to the right and the wall. There would be room for sconces on both sides of a mirror directly in front. But I’m not sure we should have sconces next to one mirror but not the other. I have not picked out mirrors yet (we bought some but I think they may be too small for the wall space and L-shaped cabinets and countertop).
My Answer: If the can lights are placed over the sink, they will provide plenty of light and wall lights above a mirrow will possibly be too much. I like the sconces purely from an aethetic point and to provide a bit more lighting. I am not so stuck on treating everything equal (balancing out things) and possibly one sconce would be nice, but I speaking without photo's.
As far as mirrors, you probably are wanting framed mirrors for an updated look and something different, but don't forget that if you a did a wrap of counter to ceiling mirror, a sconce or two could be mounted directly on the mirror which can be kind of glam.
Please make sure that the electrician does everything on dimmers. Even over a tub…why? Why not…it give you options!
Good luck! let me know what you decide to do!

The general approach you are talking about is referred to as a "pillarbox" – as opposed to "letterbox" that is done to 16×9 or wide screen footage.
However, the specific blurred mirror or blurred stretch effect you are talking about, I'm not sure what the name is. According to Wiki, the style is referred to as "echo" pillarboxing. Personally, I work in video have not seen or heard this phrase used before. But, maybe it will catch on.
Alright lets see what I can help to suggest. First it seems like it is a really clever idea, something different if I've read correctly. But it is confusing, I had to re-read and wonder how many other people this girl is.
My first suggestion would be to ditch the first person. Because it seems to me (and I could be mislead) that these girls all share one body, and when not being used they are shoved away inside the mind. See the problem with this is you aren't being consistent with the character, just narrating whoever is dominant presently. I would either pick one of these girls or just go omniscient on all them in third person. I think it would make it flow better.
Second do not be afraid to be obvious blunt, if you want it across don't be mysterious. Tell the reader what you want them to know for the most part. Of coarse for a good story not everything is going to be revealed but don't be afraid to point some things out. (Most everything you take time to write in a story should have a purpose later.)
At one point you write: "Because Mom and Dad warned you that you are not to go out in your natural appearance, that its dangerous." I would elaborate on that. A memory so reason why this is dangerous. Because I have no clue from reading that. Telling why it is dangerous might give the reader some clue as to what is going on.
Again I'm trying to keep in mind this is only an excerpt, and for that I can't give you a truly clear idea at this. If I understood more about these girls, perhaps I could help more. I hope I helped (you did say you wanted harsh criticism).
