My dad used to collect stamps and they just lie around in the cupboard. No-one looks at them so i used some to make a pretty and unique handmirror.
This is my first How-to so forgive me if it's not the best. Enjoy!

1
Get some stamps (I used ones from places i've been to) and a mirror. I found some cool paper to give the mirror a nicer finish. I used stickers for stamp albums to stick on the stamps to avoid damaging them but tape or glue will work just as well.

Draw around the mirror on your paper and add a 1-2cm border around it.

I put double-sided sticky tape around the edges of the mirror to stick on the paper. Make slits in the paper so you can fold it around the mirror if it's circular.

I used to normal sticky tape to stick down the paper because it was quite thick.

I then stuck on the stamps and voila, a personalised hand mirror.
