For this project, we started with Ikea's Malma Mirror in Black-Brown.
At $2.99 each, you can cover a big area for very little money. Start by measuring the space you wish to cover and use that measurement to figure out how many mirrors you will need. In addition, you will also need to determine how much space you want to leave between each mirror and add that into the overall measurement. In this project we used 2 inches between each mirror, but since the frames are 3 inches wide that would also create a balanced look.
The frames were painted using Ceremcoat acrylic paint in Metallic Kim Gold. We only pained the top of the frame leaving the sides and interior the original black brown color. This made the job easier as well as giving the mirrors a nice finished effect.
The final step is to place small nails in the grid pattern you have decided on. Place nails 2 inches apart and hang finished mirrors.
