You are going to need real glass. It can be from a window, coffee table, whatever. Just make sure it's real glass. This will not work on acrylic glass (sorry, I tried it so you don't have to)
I used two glass pieces from a coffee table. You can find my full tutorial on the coffee table makeover on my YouTube channel .
Apply the spray paint generously. I don't follow the rules with regular spray paint. I applied it thick and I didn't move onto the next section until I could start to see my reflection.
OMG! I can see myself!
The side that you spray paint will look a bit foggy, but still reflective.
Pick up your mirror and look at the reverse side You have a perfectly clear mirror.

I have a (spare) coffee table top that i've been holding hostage in my basement trying to figure out what to use it for! This would work well for my spare bedroom!! Thanks for the idea.
