There’s several ways, depending on your tastes:

1. PVC pipe with a grooves cut on a table saw.
2. Wood picture framing trim.
3. Foam core board, two plies thick with one ply being much bigger and foam taped to the back. Upholster or wrap with decorative paper (or wallpaper).

sometimes it is easier to find a frame and have the mirror cut to fit. Here are a couple of samples I did.

You might look into Mirror Mate!

you can do wood or tile. I’ve seen quite a few projects on the subject.

I just made a simple one out of cedar lumber for a mirror with clips. You can see how I did it here: https://www.flippingtheflip.com/2019/12/how-to-diy-frame-wall-mounted-mirror.html?m=1

Hi Roy: You can use some molding that has a lip on the back. The home improvement stores carry it in various widths and designs. Just cut it to the size you need. If you are going to do a miter cut, get more molding than you need and practice, practice, practice! :) Good luck

Hello Roy,

Quick way would be to stick the mirror to a backboard that is big enough to also fit a frame to it. You can mitre the corners or butt them - depends on your style.
