    Instead of spending over £200 on a full length industrial mirror, I thought I would just make my own! It turned out better than I expected and altogether cost just over £80! Let me know what you think :)

    Wow! I have to say FANTASTIC JOB! And the plastic underneath when gluing all the pieces together- when I saw that I had one of those “wow I feel ridiculously stupid, why didn’t I think of that moments” 😂 But hey, I think we have all been there! Your mirror looks FANTASTIC & I will say, better than ANY I have seen in the stores!
    What I absolutely love is you thought of everything, from plastic to how the little boards should lay so they look professional - that’s impressive planning!

    Looks so beautiful! And I thought the last part when you decided to spread out the glue on your grid was so smart! You were talking about how you came so far and nothing had gone wrong....that’s where it would have gone wrong for me!!!! Hahaha...I would had just flipped it over and pressed it onto the mirror oozing the glue out the sides and cursing at myself for being so stupid!! But this was so amazing! LOVE all the greenery in the space!

    Math... Little bitc length= lengh of shorter side of mirror - (width of big pieces times 2):devided with 3 (since you choose to have 3 short bits) and that's it.. I would say you forgot to count that you have 2 long pieces that are so and so in depth.

      @@leanneroost4883 you'll find no small number of American men in their 40s or 50s, and older who were using a saw for all sorts of projects as early as 12 years old. I wouldn't put an electric saw in the hands of some one under 16, but a hand saw, sure. In fact, I was showing my four-year-old grandson how to use a saw just the other day. Familiarity with hand tools is a very important skill. If you don't learn young, you will be more dangerous with it when you get older... Like 25! ☺
