We've all seen them. The large plate glass mirrors that cover an entire wall in the bathroom or other location throughout homes. Often, due to water and humidity damage the backing is gone and they look really BAD! Of course home owners can update them with a miter saw, some stock molding, black paint, and marine glue, but too often that doesn't happen. If the sellers don't know how to cut a good miter, or paint or they just aren't do it yourselfers...there is an alternative.
Check out www.mirrormate.com for ideas and for purchasing mirror frames. They aren't cheap but they can give your clients ideas on what can be done with a little bit of time and ingenuity. I always suggest doing straight cuts and putting rosettes in the corners so that mitering isn't an issue. When Dream Interior Redesign and Staging was asked how to improve this bathroom I recommend that the seller purchase or make a fram for their bath mirrors.
Here is the before, and yes they also removed wallpaper, painted, changed plumbing fixtures and lighting AND the house SOLD in just two weeks.
Here's is what the seller achieved and I staged. You can see the small rosette in the corner.
