Ashley's Shanty Thrifty Find

Hi Friends! I HAVE to blog about the thrifty find I made yesterday! I really don’t like the mirrors in our bathrooms but I have been patient in changing them out because I wanted to replace them with framed mirrors (for a more custom look) and that can be costly!

Well, I said it CAN be costly but as I found out yesterday my patience paid off BIG! I went to Lowe’s to buy some curtain rods when I stumbled upon a rack full of Mirredge mirror trim in several different colors. I stared at the Cherry Walnut for a while and wasn’t sure how it would look but I couldn't leave the store without it so I bought just enough for the boys bathroom upstairs.

These came in sets of two so I bought 2 sets ~ one set for the horizontal trim and one for the vertical trim. I then bought 1 set of 4 corner plates. They cover the seams and add a nice aesthetic touch.

Whitney just happened to be coming over that afternoon (how convenient for me) so she assisted me in this venture. The trim is 59.5” long, so roughly 5’. The instructions say to measure each piece on the mirror, score and then crisply snap the trim to get the right fit. This did not work (circular saw is so much more efficient – learned how to use one with this project). Measure the vertical strips first and then the horizontal. After you cut them down to size there are double-sided adhesive pads that come with the trim – just peel and stick (we put 4 to 5 on each strip).

To see the rest of the project check out my blog at: Ashley's Shanty2Chic

Home Depot Stores and Lowe's need to carry your product!!!

It was a pleasure speaking with you a little while ago. I share your enthusiasm about the Mirredge product. Surprisingly, I learned about your amazing product from my plumber, who suggested that Mirredge will transform my master bathroom. At one of his customers homes, he was able to witness, first hand, how upscale your product looks and how easy it is to install. He tells all of his customers about Mirredge.

I have visited your website and scrolled through the pictures that you have posted online. I have also viewed YouTube videos with instructions on how to install MirrEdge. Your product is going to be an internet sensation!I needed my bathroom mirror cut and was telling the glass company about your product. They had never heard of it (or anything like it) but want me to let them know what I think about it once it is installed. The owner of the company seemed very interested!

I will send you a picture of my mirror upon completion. I am just so excited to have found your product! I can't wait to see how it looks.Thank you for your helpful suggestion about color and styling. I have ordered 3-36" strips of the cherry walnut with the along with the complimenting deco corner plates at Home Depot.com. Unfortunately, the seam plates that I need are not available on their website. Could you please let me know how I can purchase the seam plates?

Warmest regards,

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall...what's the best frame of all??? Mirredge!!!

I just want to thank you for all your help in placing my order for the Dove White mirror frame. I just finished installing it and I have to tell you it looks like a brand new bathroom. I had always been bothered by some discoloration at the bottom of my wall mirror. To hide it I would place objects in front. Now I will make sure I show it off!!!

Assembly was easy and the results are priceless!!! I keep looking at my "new" mirror.If you ever need references feel free to give my number. If you ever hire installers in the Boston area I am available!!! (I'm an early retired teacher looking for another career.)

Thanks again and have a great day!!!

Mirredge Product Review on Home Depot.com

"The acrylic mirror strip installation kit is the perfect way to enhance a plain mirror and hide the imperfections that occur around the mirror's edge after years of use. This economical "fix" adds a classy finish with ease of application. Applied easily in a few minutes! I loved the way it transformed a plain, aging mirror into a classy new attraction in my bathroom. I plan on purchasing 2 more kits shortly for my next bathroom I remodel in which I have 2 mirrors that need sprucing up! The acrylic strips score and snap easily and if you follow the instructions completely, you will wind up with a fabulous new mirror! I am 100% satisfied!!!!

Thanks to Mirredge!

Thankyou for the e-mail as we ll as the phone call.

The job is done and looks really very good, I used the acrylic mirror edge since there is no wood tone in that bathroom.. Had to buy many strips since the mirror goes around two walls and is about 7 feet by almost 5 feet !! The product is easy to work with once one gets "the hang' of it !!

The project went fairly fast.I am happy to say that after living in this house for almost 7 years, the bathroom mirror finally looks finished, thanks to MirrEdge.

Sincerely, Linda Williams

Dove White - WOW!

Just to let you know that thanks to your e-mails where you answered my questions about where to find your Dove White Mirredge framing systems and how to measure and cut them correctly, my 3 bathrooms look phenomenal !!!! I was even able to find space savers and toilet paper storage units that matched the design that is on the corners of the mirrors!

You have come up with a great invention that has saved us a great deal of money! Thanks SO much! I have recommended Mirredge to ALL of my friends!

Thanks again for taking the time to answer my e-mails! It made all the difference in the world!

I used Mirredge in my bathroom..

I used MirrEdge in my bathroom on a older mirror that was beginning to show some age damage around the outside. I used the cherry walnut with the contemporary cormers and it looks great. (Purchased at Lowe's)

As a suggestion - you could increase the variety of the uses of the product by just creating different types of corners. While many people today love modern looking decor, we live in the country in Texas and have a more rustic look to our decor. Some corners that incorporate a star, cowboy boot, or some other rustic western theme would open up a whole new market. I had considered trying to glue rope around the mirror to hide the flaws, but realized what a mess I would make with the glue everywhere. Then I found the MirrEdge and decided that would be much simpler. I would have loved to find more variety in the corner selection to more fit the bathroom decor. Otherwise it was easy and made it look much neater.

Thanks for taking the time to listen,

Ellen

Love this product!

Hi, I spoke to you a couple days ago about the mirredge. I was looking for white corner pieces in the cont. but you said you do not sell them, well I took your advice and bought the brown ones and spray painted them white. They came out perfect! I just wanted to let you know how much I love this product. As I told you we used it in another bathroom mirror and it looks so nice. We have had many compliments on it and I have told many people about it. Thanks so much for you advice and your kindness on the phone.
Thanks again,
Kay Hoppes
