Try one of these 40+ mirror crafts that are perfect for your home decorating! You’ll love these budget friendly mirror craft ideas.
I’ll be honest, I don’t have that many mirrors in my house. I don’t have anything against mirrors, I just rely on the ones in the bathroom when I need to “check something.” To see if my hair looks crazy or there are additional wrinkles, things like that.
When you’re approaching your late 40s, there’s always something new to look at. For better or (a lot of times) worse!
So yes, I’ve underappreciated mirrors in my home for many years. Having said that, recently I decided I need one for my guest bedroom. My niece is going to start staying some nights with me, and I figure a 10 year old probably wants to look at herself.
Or any other guest who comes. They should be able to “check something” in a mirror in the privacy of their own quarters. But it can’t just be any mirror! I want to make something.
So for a bit of inspiration, I decided to put together a collection of 40+ mirror crafts. Because sure, you can hang a plain old mirror in your home – but do you really want to?
If you like home decor crafts, you’re going to love this list of ideas. There are a variety of design styles and sizes/shapes of mirrors used. And if you’re a newbie crafter, it’s okay. There’s something for everyone here!
Take a peek at the collection of projects below and let me know what you think in the comments! Do you love having mirrors in your home? I’d love to know that too!
