Update #2 - Bathroom Mirror

What you need:

Floor boards - Size and color up to you. I chose to use a wider cut since my mirror was so big.
Liquid Nails - Look for the one that says "Mirror" on it.
Gun - for Liquid Nails and Caulking
Caulk
Painters tape
Paint

Before.

(Tips before you start: Get out of work clothes. Hubby luckily didn't ruin any of his nice digs, but I got paint and caulk on my shirt and pants before the project was through. Good thing I wore scrubs! Don't worry fans, I didn't mess up my Beatles shirt.)
Steps we used to frame our mirror:

1. Measure mirror and cut floor boards at 45 degrees. My Home Depot has a "Cut it Yourself" station with a miter saw and board.

2. Line back of frame (start with the bottom piece) and place onto mirror using tape to hold it in place. Board may be a little warped so do your best to tape it as close to the mirror as possible. Wait about 15-20 minutes for glue to set.
3. Place side pieces gluing the backs and the corners of boards so that it attaches to the mirror and the bottom board. Tape in place.

4. Wait about 20 minutes for glue to set and then finish gluing the frame together by adding the top piece. Tape in place.

5. Let glue set for at least 1 hour. Check often if boards have shifted or become unglued. Use tape to fix any issues.

6. Caulk corners and cracks between mirror. Let dry.
7. Let glue and caulk set and dry. We waited over night before removing the tape.

8. Remove tape and paint frame. The paint I chose was an indoor/outdoor paint to keep it from peeling or cracking in the humidity of the bathroom.
9. Admire!!

Aren't we feeling productive? I barely left the house today. I do like the mirror, though. Floorboards...who knew?

Inсrеаsе the tempеrature of the oven tο 450 ԁegrеes.
After you've got the crust rolled out, transfer it to your pan or pizza stone. Top the dough with olive oil or cooking spray, and scoop the onion mixture over it evenly.

I wοuld not put it in the freezеr for a long time, you can ρut it in the freezer for a couple of hоurѕ but I woulԁ not put іt in there for a

naturally like your web site but you need to test the spelling on quite a few of
your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I in finding it very troublesome
to inform the reality on the other hand I will definitely come again again.
