Depends on the size of the mirror. A "small" mirror, say 20" x 20" or less, you can actually bye a piece of mirror from a local glass/mirror store (think Binswanger Glass type stores) and take it to a Michael's or Hobby Store and have them make a custom frame for you, just like they would do a picture. Or, for a larger mirror you could pick up some trim at Home Depot or Lowe's and use it to trim around the mirror yourself. Using Liquid Nail adhesive to glue the trim to the wall or mirror.
Here's a popular Hometalk project that transforms a large builder's grade mirror into a trumeau mirror ( (one with fancy French provincial carving) : http://www.hometalk.com/diy/bathroom/mirrors/mirror-builders-grade-turned-trumeau-4658877
If you're looking for something more modern, here's a metallic mirror frame makeover: http://www.hometalk.com/diy/decorate/mirror/diy-knock-off-metallic-mirror-frame-9206577
And if you just want simple framing, here's a makeover that uses Command strips to give a mirror a wooden frame that can be removed later if you change your mind: http://www.hometalk.com/diy/decorate/mirror/-16027330

molding or paper border.
Cut some molding to the size of the mirror and frame the mirror. You can paint it whatever color to match your bathroom.
