This was how the bathroom looked like. In need of some "personality"...? I started using my two most valuable resources - time and internet to see what I can do about this bathroom mirror. And I came across several blogs that has great tutorials on framing mirrors with moldings. So I made my "driver" (because I still don't have the courage to drive in Boston) drove me to the BIG store again and wandered into the molding section (next to all the woods and building materials.. I had to admit it's quite scary). I was sick of painting then so when I was relieved to find this dark brown/espresso molding. I only need two 7-feet molding (total cost ~$18 dollars).
Measured out the length. And my first time using a miter box ever! I did not even know how to pronounce the word - a staff at home depot taught me : p
My first cheap cheap seven-dollar miter box.
With liquid nails and caulking gun (of course I did not do this part myself). Don't you think it looks so much better already? Even with the painter's tape?I don't have a good picture of the completed bathroom yet (because technically this is my play-room/house not my living space). But hopefully I can upload a nice picture with all the decorations (and of course featuring my 3rd printable!) soon.
P.S. I am not really a pro in home improvement/DIY projects, so it's better to read tutorials like this one from Elizabeth & Co.
