Do you know where Noah's ark is?
Cuz we are looking for him here in Nashville.
Soooooo, I am stuck in Nashville one more day here with mom.
All flights have been cancelled.
Sorry boys!
My vacation just got extended one more day!
So since mom and I are stuck in the house I wanted to show you what we have been working on.
When mom picked me up from the airport she mentioned that she wants to make a frame for her mirror in the guest bath.
And I said, "Well, let's do it!"
So we did!
Here is the before picture.
We picked out two trims to use together to make the thick frame.
And here's the After:
And here is my cute mom showing off our work.
We used a miter box for the first time by completely ourselves and learned that using caulk is an art form....that we do not possess.
Wanna know how we did it?
Come back tomorrow and I will give you a complete tutorial!
I promise you if we could do it...then you can most definitely do it.
I will be linking to these parties.

That turned out beautifully!!!! We are wanting to do the same to our master bath. Question -what color are the cabinets?
Stay safe in Nashville - hits close to home after living there myself.
That looks great! I like that shower curtain too.
I've been thinking about doing the same thing to the mirror in our ensuite bathroom. The mirror goes right to the wall, though, so I was thinking of putting the trim right on top of the mirror...although not sure how good that'd look. I'm curious how you did it, so will be checking in tomorrow! Great job!
The frame looks gorgeous!!! Hope the flooding eases up soon!
The mirror looks fabulous and totally designer. Tell your mom my husband got stuck on 1-40, heading back to Memphis.
I WILL be back for the turtorial! It looks great! My son is in Nashville and just called--they are evacuating the Opryland Hotel:(
Hope you get home soon!
Oh, this looks great!! What a great idea.
Be a sweetie,

Thanks for stopping by my blog!! The frame looks fantastic and your mom is just the cutest thing! Hope you are able to get home to your family soon. Safe Travels.
Working on this EXACT project today! Great job!
I am so impressed with your framing project! I'm hoping it will inspire me to get busy and get things done around here!
Just found your blog via TGC -- that frame turned out beautifully!!! I SO want to do that to our bathroom mirrors, so eagerly awaiting your tutorial!! :)
What a great looking mirror! I really want to do this to my mirror!
That's a very distinguished looking mirror now. Big difference and Mom looks so happy. Brava. Jane F
What a difference a little framing will do! :) Nice job!!
Glad you're safe...I've heard things are pretty bad there. Good luck getting home!

Wow, that looks great! I love how much different is it. And that you did it yourselves. Well done!
What an amazing change! It's just beautiful. I can't wait to see the tutorial!
Wow, looks fabulous, I have been trying to decide whether to take ours down or do this. I can't wait for you to show me how.
Great job! I did the same thing in our master and hall bathrooms. The only thing I'd do differently next time around would be to use chair rail instead of crown moulding. The crown juts out, whereas chair would lay flat. Great job!
I have a mirror that I need to do this to for an in home salon...yours looks fantastic, will be checking back to catch your tutorial! Gorgeous!
Ooooo, I want to do that the mirror in my bathroom. Can't wait to see you show me how.
Glad you made it back safely.
Wow! God bless ya'll. I can't believe that house! I think we take that road to FL every year.:O I love your mirror. It looks fantastic!
That is a cute mom! I'm dying to do something like this to my bathroom mirror. Yours turned out so great! (That video is scaring me! Stay safe!)
