Hello All!
This DIY Gilt Mirror is by far one of my favorite crafts. It’s beautiful. I’m so proud of how it turned out, and I’m so excited to share this step by step tutorial with you!
All of the supplies needed to make your very own DIY Gilt Mirror will be linked below. The gold frame could definitely be achieved with by applying gold leaf, however I chose to spray paint the gold onto the frame and appliques. It’s a quicker, easier method.
This make it yourself Gilt Mirror is a perfectly gorgeous, very extra, addition to any space in your home to add instant glam. To create your own carved frame, gold, gilt mirror: start with a full-length mirror of your choice and cover the glass with paper. I used old magazines and found that slipping the paper between the frame and glass worked best. Then lay out your covered mirror, and appliques on a tarp or other floor covering and spray paint the appliques and frame in the color of your choice. I chose a metallic gold, but silver would also be beautiful. Even fun colors would look great and be a unique and modern spin on a classic elegant piece.
When the paint is dry, use E6000, or your favorite adhesive, to glue the appliques onto the frame in a pattern of your choice. Allow to dry, remove the paper from the glass and you have created your own gorgeous gilt mirror at home!

Hope you love it!
Happy Crafting :)

This was such a great video, also do you have any advice how to put the decorations on it you don’t have a outlining border on the mirror? It’s just a mirror only/all glass
@StarsetMoonfire
@StarsetMoonfire 4 года назад
Great question. At Home Depot you can get really cheap, really thin boards/sheets of wood (think plywood, or that stuff with the holes all through it, thin and strong). They'll even cut it for you. I'd ask them to cut it just larger than my mirror, say half inch over-hang on all sides (or if you only want to decorate the top and bottom, have the sides match in size to your mirror, or be slightly under to make sure they don't show, and have the extra length on the top and bottom. You can glue it to the back of the mirror, (while providing bonus support for the glass) then glue the appliques to that. So they rest against the glass edge, but are glued to the wood. Maybe paint the wood gold so if it peeks through the swirls it's not noticeable. Hope that's helpful!

Thank you so much for sharing.what you did to your mirror it’s very beautiful I have a full length mirror that’s in a stand in white but it’s just plain I want to do it up with appliqués but like yours I love gold it gives such a classy feel to it but my mirror is to bulky how can I make a white frame mirror look good I could show you a pic if you want to see Thanks again for your vid🙏xx
@StarsetMoonfire
@StarsetMoonfire 5 лет назад
Hi, I’m glad you liked the vid! Thanks for letting me know! Without seeing the mirror, but with what you said about liking the appliqués. Maybe, if the frame/stand is thick you can put them on the frame so they don’t hang out over the edge? Then, when you paint it gold, it will look more like a carved frame rather which could be cool. - Hope you let me know what you go with and how it turns out!

Might want to try gold leafing instead of spraying gold paint. The “gold “ leaf is not expensive and gives a much nicer finish. 🙂
@StarsetMoonfire
@StarsetMoonfire 3 года назад
That's a great idea! I've never worked with proper gold leafing (like the sheets) but I do want to try it sometime :)

@StarsetMoonfire

Yes! I'm hoping to do that in the future! I just need to figure out size, where it's going to go, and what types of appliques I want :) I love this one though, I definitely want another!

You know those big golden tassels with pearls etc that they put around curtains or hang on mirrors etc in chateau environments? haha xd Or maybe hang on swag valances? XD I have looked up those things but it seems so complicated and expensive, you are very creative and I am sure you could come up with an easy and cheaper way to do it haha!

Did you paint the back of the mirror or leave it the original color?
@StarsetMoonfire
@StarsetMoonfire 4 года назад
I left the back of my mirror the original color. I knew I would keep the mirror against a wall so it didn't bug me. It wouldn't hurt it to paint it though. I did paint the back of the appliques. That way, regardless of the angle I viewed them at, they would be gold. :)
