hello
I am a basic DIYer and I am in the process of moving into a new apt that has a very large frameless mirror over the top of our fireplace which I am moveing to the dining room so that we can wall mount our t.v over the fireplace but the mirror looks very unfinished and cheaply done sitting on the wall by itself and i would like to build a nice frame to go around it I dont mind a couple of screws or nails in the wall but neither frame or mirror can be permently mounted to the wall can you help thanks :D
The problums
1. the mirror is stock in the apt and can not be damaged or permently altered.- Frame can not be glued to glass
2. the mirror has clips on 4 corners
3. I dont have a huge price budget to buy a frame, so I am looking for supplies that I can buy at Home Depot or Lowes that I can cut and stain at home
I DONT LIKE THE STICK ON MIRREDGE STUFF!
