All you need to make this lunar beauty is some joint compound, a spray bottle, and a paintbrush. You can play with it until you like the look of the texture, and we love that it doesn't have to be perfect.

LED lights and some fluffy filling will transform your mirror from drab to fab. This is our favorite kind of night light. Plus, you can change the color depending on your mood!

Considering we usually see mirrors come in circles or rectangles, we are totally on board with wavy mirrors. This layered option is super easy to make, and even though it adds extra dimension, it doesn't take up any extra space.

Everything is not as it seems with this daisy DIY mirror. Add a fresh coat of paint to wooden circles, then arrange them in a larger circle and glue your mirror overtop. It doesn't get much cuter than this.

Turn your mirror into something worthy of a Broadway dressing room with some push lights. You deserve to feel like a star!

You've never used spray foam quite like this... add some around the edge of your mirror in a zigzag motion. Paint it to match the rest of your decor and you'll have a new focal point for your bedroom.

We'd fill our homes from floor to ceiling with checkerboard decor if we got the chance. But for now, we'll settle with a mirror ;). Painter's tape rectangles and spray paint will be your best friends for this project.

Grab some sheets of gold foil and a can of spray adhesive for this project. You can use strips of the foil that's as wide as you like, but we'd recommend starting small. You can always add more!

Add some colorful pebbles to an already-funky mirror to make something one of a kind. This totally reminds us of confetti.

Test your painter skills with a lovely color palette and a few different brushes. You can paint dots, squiggles, or even paint a scene. Attach some hooks to hang your necklaces from and you're done!

We'll never get over how chic + sophisticated marble decor looks. Mix some glitter in with epoxy and pour one after the other to create an overlapping effect. Go in with a Sharpie for some final details or leave as-is. Either way, this DIY mirror is *gorgeous.*

This is another DIY that can use some epoxy. The key is to pick up some silicone flower molds that you can glue to your mirror frame. Don't forget to lay it out before you glue so you can make sure you like the finished product.

Get mirrors in all different sizes and a piece of wood. Attach the mirrors in descending sizes or mix it up depending on what fits your vibe the best. Create multiples to turn this DIY mirror into a piece of art!
