How to Install a Frame Around a Bathroom Mirror

Adding a frame to a bathroom mirror is a simple and affordable way to update the look of your bathroom. A well-chosen frame can complement the décor of your bathroom and make a statement. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install a frame around a bathroom mirror:

Materials You'll Need:

- Picture frame of your choice - Measuring tape - Pencil - Level - Hammer - Nails - Mirror clips

Step 1: Measure and Mark the Wall

Use a measuring tape to determine the center of the mirror. Mark the center point on the wall with a pencil.

Step 2: Position the Frame

Place the frame over the mirror and align it with the center point you marked. Use a level to ensure that the frame is level both horizontally and vertically.

Step 3: Mark the Nail Holes

Use a pencil to mark the spots on the wall where the nails will go through the frame. You'll want to use at least two nails on each side of the frame.

Step 4: Hammer in the Nails

Carefully hammer the nails into the wall at the marked points. Be sure to sink the nails in far enough to secure the frame, but not so far that they damage the wall.

Step 5: Attach the Mirror Clips

Place the mirror clips on the back of the mirror, aligning them with the nails you just hammered in. Secure the clips by tightening the screws on the clips.

Step 6: Hang the Mirror

Carefully lift the mirror and place it over the nails so that the clips hook onto the nails. Gently press on the mirror to ensure that it is securely hung.

Step 7: Final Adjustments

Once the mirror is hung, use a level to make any final adjustments to ensure that it is perfectly level. You may need to gently tap the corners of the frame with a hammer to adjust the position of the mirror.

Congratulations! You have now successfully installed a frame around your bathroom mirror. Enjoy the updated look of your bathroom.
