Bathroom Makeover Challenge Part 3: Repurpose a Mirror

January 30, 2020

DIY specialist and professional furniture expert Natasha Dickens from Little Red Industries is back with part 3 of her Bathroom Makeover Challenge. Today she shares how to revamp your existing bathroom mirror with a touch of timber. The one element in a bathroom that doesn’t wear out or become dated is the mirror so there’s no reason it shouldn’t be reused. Adding a custom timber vanity table and changing the original aluminium frame of the mirror to timber adds a handcrafted element. It also helps the large mirror feel warmer and helps tie it into the rest of the refurb. Choose an adhesive that handles moisture, such as Bondall’s Bondcrete, which is also easy to work with and dries quickly and clear, and always seal new timber.
