Cute/Inexpensive Gift Mirrors

I guess with going back to school (not me... I am done and graduated... maybe my masters down the line) I am just crazy with college stuff, I loved how these turned out, and am currently just on the quest to find good prices for all this stuff going forward.

So these mirrors are another work in progress and only lack a gerber daisy in the upper right hand corner to hide the seams for where the ruffle ended. What do you think? Any suggestions on things you would change?

It was so easy too. The mirrors as I have discussed before were only $5 from Home Depot and then the ruffle was a pre-done binding ruffle from Hobby Lobby, then coordinating ribbon to go with the logo color. Hot glue and a little time turned out some beautiful $10.00 gems to give away to those college students!

Do you know how difficult it is to take a picture of a mirror and you not be in it? Sorry for the smudges, I was in a hurry when I took them.

Tell me what you think because I am curious... Oh, and if I can remember to upload the picture of the finished room I will post my craft room re-do tomorrow.

TTFN~

  1. Those are so fantastic! You are putting your cricut to good use for sure! I love that trim.

    I'm surprised the coasters were giving you troubles. I would have done exactly the same thing. Maybe mod podge would do the trick.
