It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

I Have Never Seen Anyone Upcycle An Unwanted Mirror Like This! Now That’s D-I-WISE!!

She had a mirror, but apparently was in need of a coffee table.  So she put two and two together.

After stripping the mirror down to it’s bare wood, she built the beautiful table base with 2×4’s.

She had to connect the matching sides for stability.

Then the mirror went on as the tabletop itself.

Then of course, paint…

After the whole thing was painted, it was showroom ready!

What an incredible job!  Very impressed.

Have you ever upcycled a mirror?  Please tell us how.

Thank you to inmyownstyle for this awesome idea and beautiful work!  See her site for lots more deets and all the specs to make this table.  She laid it all out over there.

  1. This may need to be my next project!

  2. Very pretty; but, I would be afraid to use a cheap (thin) mirror – would find a thicker, better one for this beautiful project.

    That is way too much work. Nice, though.
