A Mirror Makeover and MirrorMate Giveaway

*This giveaway is now closed

Hey guys, I’m very excited about this one.  Have you heard of MirrorMate Frames?  They sell custom-fitted frames so you can easily transform your plain builder boring mirror into something fabulous.  All corners come pre-mitered, and very little assembly is required.  All you have to do is just measure your mirror, pick the style of frame you would like, and they do the rest.  Seriously, it is ridiculously easy.

MirrorMate was so kind and let me choose a frame I wanted so I could transform our master bathroom mirror.  I have been dying to do something to our mirrors because I knew they were just blah.

They offer several different styles and these are just a few…

I chose the Tribeca style in black with silver detail.  This is how everything was out of the box.

Sorry about the sun reflection getting in the way, but we had to have a large work space.

Then we just used the glue that was provided, and popped in the little connectors on each end.

Once you have done that to all 4 corners, you just have to wait 1 hour and then you can put your new frame up!

The frame just sits directly on top of your existing mirror, and super duty self adhesive tape is what holds it up.  That is what the strips you see on the back of the frame are.

Ok, so here is our builder-boring mirror before…

And after.

A close up of the detail…

Umm, is that not amazing or what?  It’s like magic for your mirrors.  I love the chunkiness of the frame too.  It adds so much elegance to our bathroom now.  My husband helped me put it up because you do need 2 people, and it was so easy.  I love instant gratification, and I am in love with our mirror now! And for whatever reason, our bathroom seems so much bigger now with the framed mirror.  Pretty amazing! Oh, and I did not have those clips on my mirror before, but if you do have them, you can still use the frames and the clips will be covered up. Also, our frame sits directly on top of the backsplash too. :)

I know you would like to transform one of your mirrors too right?  Well the generous folks at MirrorMate are giving away $100 credit towards the purchase of a custom frame!  Since everyone has different sizes of mirrors, we figured this would be the best way to do it.

To enter, just do the following:

1. Followers just leave a comment here and let us know which style frame you like from MirrorMate;

Additional entries…

2. Like MirrorMate on Facebook, and leave a comment here that you did;

3. Facebook or tweet about this giveaway with a link back to this post, and leave a comment for whichever you did.

And that’ll do it!  I’ll run this through Saturday, December 11 and will announce the winner then. Good luck friends!

    I have been wanting to do this with our bathroom mirror (looks just like your ‘before’) for so long! My choice would be Casco Bay in White. It looks so fresh and clean.

  15. Megan Haroldsen says

    Oh my! That frame makes such a difference! I love their Acadia and Bellameade styles.

    How crazy…I was looking at my bathroom mirror last night, and thought I really need to do something about it. Then this giveaway comes along, and I think…this is so what I need. So yes, I’d go for the Grandezza, Aged Silver!!!

    (I was too quick to send in my entry, so nix out the Anonymous comment. See how excited I am about this giveaway)

  44. Jennifer Heerman says

    I love this! I’ve been wanting to add a frame to our boring mirror in the bathroom! The one you picked would be good b/c I also have aspirations of painting the cabinet black :)

  52. megan says

    how did you know that just this morning i was trying to figure out how in the *world* i could make our massive bathroom mirror palatable?!

    i love love love the pewter bronze chelsea frame – slightly distressed and will work with the chrome fixtures as well as the *cough* blue countertops!

  55. Bonnie says

    For sure the Providence Oiled Bronze! I made frames for my last house & I LOVED them! We have been in our new house a few months & I haven’t framed out the mirrors yet & this would be perfect for me!

  57. LesleyG says

    Very cool. It figures someone is doing this, with all the flat boring vanity mirrors out there. :) I like the Acadia and Venetian styles!

  58. jenn says

    Love Sho! Right now I had actually painted a frame on ours becuase I thought something like this would be too pricy for our rental…..hmmmm!

  84. Angie G. says

    I’ve been wanting to do this to my master bath for a while. I love the look of the Espresso Chelsea frame. Thanks for the chance to win!

  98. Angie M says

    OMG never has my bathroom needed something more! I have a frame on the master bathroom but the full one downstairs really could use something like this. I was going to rip off the builder mirror and get something else, but this would be perfection! I love the Gramercy in Martini! I like the pattern. Your bathroom looks great!!!

  104. michelle mitchell says

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE the oil bronzed frame. My bathroom looks almost exactly like yours! LOL

  122. Maria says

    I love the Portage frame, sand color. I am going for a beachy, cottage vibe in my bathroom and this would look great!

  126. diane says

    I have used mirror mate products in several of my clients homes and have never had a problem. Shipping is easy and quick and if you measured properly they install easily and look absoutely beautiful. I have never had a client not be pleased with the end product.

  127. Kim Matheny says

    I have always wanted to get this for our mirrors, love the brown tribeca and the venetian!!

  128. Shannon Stone says

    I love the Providence in Oiled Bronze. What a great idea! I have long loathed my bathroom mirrors. So blah!

  135. Nancy says

    I cannot believe the transformation to your bathroom with just this simple project. Looks great.

    I like the dark cherry frame.

  140. Trish says

    I adore the Charlotte! Your mirror looks so pretty! what a simple change but big impact! I love this idea!

  149. Felicia says

    Wow,this is a really great idea for not-so-handy people like me! I looove the Chelsea style!

  155. Elise says

    Wow our master bath is in dire need of a Mirror Mate frame!! The Acadia in oiled bronze would be PERFECT!!

  159. emily b says

    I can’t decide!! I am in love with the Bellameade, and the Gramercy. Both would look FAB in my bathroom!!

  161. MichelleMarsh says

    Your mirror looks wonderful! Thank you for making the instructions so simple!! I personally LOVE the Mediterra Glazed Earth style and would be thrilled to be considered…I’ve “liked” it on FB and have commented and also posted a link here. Thank you!!

  162. erica r. says

    My fave style is Tribeca. A good mix of modern & simple with an interesting texture. Then again, I like all of them!!

  163. Linda says

    Mediterra has the clean, simple styling I prefer. Very nice looking. Thanks for sharing about this interesting product, and your generous giveaway.

  165. Melissa says

    I am loving the Grandezza!! That is what I would like for our home. However, if I happen to win this, I will use it for my mom. She has been living with the same mirror since the 80’s. She thought about doing this but she hasn’t yet.

    Awesome stuff!

  171. Emily @ On the V Side says

    I have been wanting to try one of these for like, a year now!

    Depending on what bathroom I put it in, I would either do the Pemaquid wood in mahogany, or or the Chelsea in Black Satin or Espresso.

    Thanks for an awesome giveaway!
    Emily

  172. Tammy says

    MirrorMate frames are wonderful! I’ve had my eye on the Naples Antique Silver frame for quite some time; it is the missing piece of my master bath puzzle.

  173. Kellie says

    I love this idea! I would do the Arcadia in oiled bronze. We have been working on doing something in our master bathroom like this but never got around to actually doing it. This would be so much easier than what we had planned. :)

  174. Amy M. says

    I really, really love this product! I would choose the Acadia,Providence or Naples. That’s just for starters! Great giveaway.

  175. karen says

    Oil rubbed bronze would match my new faucet, but truthfully, I need one in EACH bathroom! Two builder’s plain mirrors…Love…

  179. jen says

    I love the one you used-Tribecca in Black. It looks fantastic and so easy. Also left comment on their site too!

  181. Marin D says

    I guess it depends which bathroom I was putting it in. But I think the Acadia and the Tribeca are my faves. What a cool thing. I am going to be putting this on my list of wants!!!

  185. evelania says

    Okay, seriously this is awesome because we have been wanting to do this to our boring builder grade mirrors. I think I’d choose the Cherokee or the Pacifica. Thanks a ton!

  187. RebekahBloyd says

    I like the Permaquid in Old World Silver! I have been contemplating a Mirror Mate for our guest bathroom for a while! Do you think we could get a coupon code for those of us you aren’t lucky enough to win? :)

  188. Joy says

    Oh that is awesome, I really have been wanting to do something like that to our boring builder rectangle mirror in our bathroom.

    I really like the Bellemeade in Cherry

  200. Kristel says

    I love the soho or pemaquid in black. I’ve been meaning to frame my mirrors, and this is a great idea!

  205. Ashley says

    I like so many! I think my favorite is the Naples in Antique Silver. This is just in time, I just moved in to a new house and despise the boring mirrors in the master bath!

  211. JenniferLynn says

    I love this and I now love Mirror Mate. This appears to be a very quality product. After I repaint our guest bath, I will definitely use MirrorMate to frame our mirror. When we redecorated, we had 2 pre-teen daughters who are now gone and grown, but with 2 girls, we had to have a large mirror and just picked one up at Lowe’s. I always thought it needed something more. When we remodel, our master bath, I want to do a large mirror with 2 smaller mirrors hanging or mounted on the large one. I will definitely use MirrorMate in our remodel. Thanks for letting us know about this company and product!

  215. Crystal says

    I love the pemaquid in black. Clean and simple, perfect for my bathroom redo. Hide all the ugly mirror clips!!!

  217. Kim B. says

    I LOVE the acadia style & have 3 bathrooms in DESPERATE need of these frames!! Thanks sooo much for sharing! Either way, am definitely looking into :)

  221. Rebecca says

    I like the brushed bronze, in the Chelsea style. My master bathroom is crying out for one of these! ;)

  227. Cindy says

    Thanks for this opportunity! I have a DIY mirror frame on my loooong to-do list, and this would make it so much simpler, especially since I don’t have a miter saw. I would have to narrow it down from these favorites: Acadia, Bellemeade, Pemaquid, and Venetian. :fingers crossed:

  230. Rockzann says

    I am an admitted lurker on your blog. I love your ideas and how easy you make them to follow. I have wanted one of these mirrors for quite awhile so winning one would really make my day!
