  Step 1

  Start with your oversized floor mirror which we found at Lowes for $25. Then take two or three 2x4's (depending on the dimensions of your mirror) and cut them to size to surround the mirror, cutting at 45 degree angles with a miter saw.

• 

  Step 2

  Using a table saw, cut grooves into the 2x4's at 1/8" x 1/2" to slide the edges of the mirror into.

  Step 3

  Then after securing each of the four corners with wood glue and screws, sand down all the sides.

  Step 4

  At this point you can choose to stain & poly your mirror frame, or paint it in whatever style you'd like. I chose a herringbone pattern similar to the West Elm design, which I painted using blue painters tape.

• 

  Step 5

  After painting on the navy blue herringbone design over white, I wanted to slightly mute the boldness of that navy color. I chose to whitewash the entire face of the frame using a whitewashing tutorial I found on Pinterest.

  Step 6

  After letting that dry, I then stained the outside and inside edges of the frame with natural wood stain so it was a nice, light color. The one coat of varnish - and we're done!
