Hi Gerri, There are tons of great ideas from our wonderful people right here on Hometalk! http://www.hometalk.com/search/posts?filter=large%20makeover%20mirrors%20
Have fun!
Gerri,
Like Suzette mentioned, check out the forums here on Hometalk; amazing ideas. Also, check out Pinterest for some. I know there are ways to build surrounds with tile, or shelving surrounds as well.
@Gerri... hello! I'm guessing you remodeled and kept the big bathroom mirrors. At your house, can you mount one in each bedroom closet? You and guests can use the mirrors as they were intended, to help you get more beauticious. Outside, if you have an old card table, you can set the mirror on top. Set bowls of water and bowls of birdseed on the mirror and makes some birds very happy.
To give the mirrors away, try local churches. Some churches may have a theater group, or their choir room may need another big mirror. The nursery may need a mirror for play-acting. Or they may have a yard sale coming up.
Schools, especially the theater dept., may want them. Try to get the number or leave a message for that person. Again, the choir room or band room might want them, too.
And one last idea: store one or more of the mirrors safely somewhere until Christmas or some other holiday. Set one or more mirrors on tables inside and create a Christmas village, maybe with a train and snow. Lots of choices 😇
Both ladies are right. Here is what I found on google. I actually had to look up what a builder mirror was! Hope this helps.
