How To Make A Frame For A Bathroom Mirror
Heres one of the corners dont be afraid if they dont match up perfectly.
How to make a frame for a bathroom mirror. Apply the adhesive to a second corner block and press it into place across from the first one width wise. Apply your liquid nails or glue to the back of the board but make sure to leave an inch or so at the top of the board so you wont see the glue reflected in the mirror. The overall size of the mirror with the frame is 355 inches wide and 335 inches tall.
Once your frame dimensions are known cut the four sides 1 longer than that final size. You dont even need any special equipment to get this done just a trip to the hardware store. Apply at least two coats of paint to wood that will be used as frame for your bathroom mirror.
Immediately place the board on the mirror. We put our mirror together like this. After the frame is assembled mount the three frame hanger loops to the back of the frame at the top to align with the screws that were placed on the 4 12 wood piece.
We already knew where our studs were located because the mirror clips were already in studs. This line marked the edge of where the wood frame would set on the mirror. Let dry on non stick paper for 12 hours before installation.
Step 1 make sure to locate your studs. Moving forward with the bathroom finishing work i need to get the mirror frame made that matches the vanity. I used tape to hold it in place while it dried.
Since 2 will be left to join the corners the height of the cut will be 1 12 for a total of 3 12 for 1x4. Nothing that a bit of caulk cant fix. In order for the frame to mount flush against the wall a notch must be cut into the backside of the frame pieces.
