DIY Mirror Nightstand

I'm so excited about this project! This has been something I wanted but not bad enough to pay $600 or even $100 for it... SO, of course I tried making it.
Here it is:


I paid a total of $20 to make this table!

I used my old nightstand, here's what it looked like before:

I cut off the legs and middle shelf with a jig saw (saving the legs and table top)
I measured the mirrors and cut the table top to that size,
I also used the mirror measurements to cut wood for the sides (scrap wood),
making a box/crate:
Then I glued the mirrors on



The space on the sides fit the small mirror tiles at your local craft store perfectly.

I painted the legs black
I then added/wood glued the legs to the four corners inside the crate.
Turn around and you're done!

  3. Great idea! I have been trying to figure out how to glue mirrors onto the front of an old dresser - I am feeling inspired! Thanks for linking up to Be Inspired today.
