    Carefully, very carefully..... But....

    safety comes first: use gloves to protect your hands and wrists.

    I used a metal spatula and a rubber mallet.

    i suggest that there be 2 persons doing it so it doesn’t fall from your grasp.

    Be careful. If you damage your sheetrock, use this to patch it. https://amzn.to/2LNAnml

    To help eliminate breaking, you can also use a hairdryer to warm up the glue a little bit before wedging behind the mirror with the chisel. I also like to use wood shims and work in a circle around the wall — creating space with the chisel, then adding a wood shim. If you do it gently enough, the wall wont break.


    There are also quite a few step-by-step videos on YouTube!
