DIY Rococo Gilt Mirror
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Here’s a quick look at how I turned this simple mirror I inherited from my Grandma into an “antique” romantic rococo gilt mirror! It’s for my in-progress mermaid princess bedroom. (Had some requests for more info. about this on insta after I shared it in my stories so hope this helps!) ❤️ (Follow me over there & TikTok @TraciHines & on Fbook / tracihinesmusic )
I wasn’t able to show every step in detail for this quick reel but here’s how I did it:
1. find wall onlays or appliqués you like (I got mine online from home improvement stores & amazon)
2. spray paint them gold on both sides (I like rustoleum metallics)
3. tape down your mirror & spray paint the frame to match
4. clean your mirror & glue your pieces on (I like E6000 - make sure you’re working in a well ventilated area)
5. let dry flat overnight & hang it up somewhere you can admire it! 💫
(some extra tips - if you’re doing a leaning mirror don’t glue your onlays to hang below the frame - learned that one the hard way on my 1st mirror revamp last yr. haha! Also make sure the heaviest parts of your onlays are glued down really well onto the mirror. Gently place something on top while it dries if need be)
(Btw this track is my original vampire love song "Stay With You" - avail. in music stores & streaming now. Check out the lyric video here: • Traci Hines - Stay Wit... music by Adam Gubman adamgubman.com )
Shoutout to @AmberScholl for inspiring me to try this! I’ve seen countless tutorials on this kinda thing now but she’s the 1st I ever saw doing it & she’s a real life princess ICON so can’t not mention her when I share my mirror projects! Thank you Amber for the endless princess-castle inspo!
(Aaaand yes I know my ancient powder blue carpet is horrendous. I would DIY that straight into to the trash if I could! 🙃 I can’t wait for the day it’s gone for good haha!)

thanks so much! they're fun to do! (-:
I had no idea that these moldings were available at HD or that they were available in these patterns and sizes. I am putting together a Chinoiserie-themed room and the style is $$ while this is not as large, most mirrors in this style are $1200-$3k on average so this video just made my room happen because the mirror is one of the defining elements of a solid Chinoiserie style room. Armed with the materials one could make any size to suit their space. Even if I had to drop $100 or more for the large pieces, it would still save me a TON of money that I can spend on good furniture or ... a stellar mural instead! THANK YOU!

You actually can do that on your own! (If you were unaware! I know some people just don't like having to do the clicks to do it. xD) On Phone: Click the 3 dots in the top corner, Playback speed will be the 3rd from the bottom, change it to 0.25 to 0.76 On Pc: Look for the gear wheel icon at the bottom, look for playback speed and change to 0.25 to 0.75
