Well hello all! Happy Halloween weekend to you! And YOU! ;)
I’m back with another fantastic giveaway this weekend, cause my advertisers RAWK.
MirrorMate sells custom frames made specifically for your mirror. I think most of us have those basic, frameless mirrors in our bathrooms, and MirrorMate provides a fantastic solution for dressing them up!
The folks at MirrorMate were awesome and sent me a mirror to try out. Since our mirrors are already framed out, I asked a girlfriend if she wanted one. Uh…YES!
She runs a home daycare in her basement, and some day I will show you the whole thing. It is AWESOME. When they remolded their master bathroom (which I will also show you someday!), they moved the huge builder mirror down to the daycare:
It’s a fun little dress up area for the kids. TOO cute!
We sent the measurements of the mirror to the folks at MirrorMate and we had the frame within a week! I gotta be honest…when I opened up the assembly instructions I was a little intimidated:
But it was SO easy to put together people! Just four easy steps:
Those little cardboard corners were awesome – they help hold the frame just right and level for you till you’re ready to stick it on for good. (The frame stays up with the super sticky tape on the back that goes directly on the mirror.)
One little tip they offered was to color in the edges of each piece before assembly, just in case you’d see any of it after it was put together. It was a great idea! I used a black Sharpie to color in ours a bit:
It took about 20 minutes to assemble it, and then after letting the glue dry, it only took about five more minutes to actually get it hung.
It’s such a simple change but we couldn't’ believe the difference it made!:
Let’s take a look at the before and after, shall we?
Isn’t that crazy? Love it!
We used Pemaquid Black for her mirror, but they have a crazy good selection of colors and designs:
They also have versions you can paint whatever color you want:
If you’re not sure which one you want, they will send you a four inch sample for free (just a small shipping and handling charge for up to three samples.) Love that!
Well, it’s time for the best part – the folks at MirrorMate are offering one of you $200 to spend as you wish at their site! That $200 will get you far – my friend’s mirror was HUGE and was right around the price.
You won’t believe the difference it will make to your ho hum mirror!
Here’s how to enter the MirrorMate giveaway:
1. Leave a comment here. What are your kiddos going to be this Halloween? (We’ll have a little pirate. Arrrrgh.) Are you dressing up?

Hope you have a positively ghoulish weekend! :)

Oh, this would be fabulous! My husband and I just sat down to make a list of things we'd like to do to the house. I didn't even mention framing the mirrors because we have so much else to do!
As for Halloween costumes, I'm going to have Gabriela from High School Musical, a soldier, and a cat.
i just have a halloween tutu - but does that count?? :-)
We have a little sea otter this year! :)
I love the Chelsea frame, I can't choose a fave color though, it would all depend on the room!
My son is going to be Nacho Libre :)
Love your site!
My two kids are going to be legos! We went for the DIY costume this year.
Loved the Grandezza Aged Silver frame.
This year I have three Star Fleet officers, a Romulan...and Snow White!
6 months pregnant + moving = exhausted mom who picks up a cheapie Superman costume at wm. but this would be PERFECT for my new house.
Liked them on FB.
i have two strawberry shortcakes this year. =)
if money were no object, the naples antique silver would be uh-maz-ing in our master bath.
just liked 'em on facebook.
We don't celebrate Halloween, but I'd still love to win this mirror frame!

I have a Maria (from the sound of music) costume, but nowhere to wear it too!
I like the Acadia Dove White frame. purtay!
Spiderman and a Monkey.
My boys are Ironman and Buzz Lightyear :)
I don't have kids, but am looking forward to seeing the neighborhood kids' costumes. I expect to see a lot of them out this year!
I think I would have to go with the Pemaquid Dark Bronze for my master bathroom. This is such a neat idea -- I wish I'd thought of it!
I need at least two of these mirror frames! Halloween- My son is going to be an Astronaut for halloween and my daughter is undecided. At the moment she is thinking about Tinkerbell but that could change. She likes to keep her options open. I will NOT be dressing up. I can never think of a good costume, but if I do the time and money never seem to be available.

We don't have any kiddos yet...but my favorite costume I've seen this year was a little pink octopus who was being pushed in a stroller....hilarious!
I don't have a FB of my own (I know...weird right) so I had my sister 'like' mirror mate on FB!! Hope that doesn't disqualify me!
P.S. love your Halloween mice! Makes me wish I had wood stairs!
i like mirror mates on facebook :)
My little girls are both pretty pink fairies wearing HUGE poofy tutu dresses. SUPER CUTE! And I would pick the flat brown one. It would go perfectly with my furniture.

I think Cherokee Java would work best with our bathroom - we have a dark modern cabinet in there. This is actually a project that I was just thinking we need to do. It really is a great finishing touch with big impact.
My kids are too old for Halloween! We're also not dressing up as it's not appropriate for our workplaces. We are looking forward to seeing all the kids this year! The best part is checking out their costumes.
My 3 & 5 year-old will be trick or treating as Kubota Tractors! Fun project with cardboard boxes!!!
I would choose Tribeca Burnished brown for my Mom's Master Bath. I wish we had mirrors this large in our home.

I would choose the cherokee in silver!!!
I like Permaquid in Old World Silver.
I don't have any children to dress up for Halloween.
I really like the Pemaquid Black.
I love the Chelsea a bit traditional but chunky enough too. It depends on the room as to what color I want, white, black, or deep wood tone..... oh I visited their site.
My youngest (14) is going to be Artemis, still looking for a bow and arrow. My granddaughter is going as Rapunzel...we cut down a prom dress that was lavender and it will be perfect.
BTW love your blog, love your humor and wit!
2 year old is going to tinkerbell and the 11 month old is going to be a duck :)
We don't have out daughter dress up for Halloween because she thinks it's scary! She would rather not participate and I am so okay with that!
I would pick the chelsea cherry red! We are needing one of these RIGHT NOW! We just gutted our master bathroom and we are putting it back together right now. Tiling was yesterday. The placement of the vanity with light switches and the electrical is a little wonky and I needed to get a 72"x24" mirror. Well I thought the frame was included in that measurement, but it only includes the mirror and now it's too big! We're going to have to dissect it and rebuild a frame for the mirror. So wouldn't this just be perfect so we didn't have to do it by ourselves:)
yippee for giveaways! My 5 year old son is going to be optimus prime. I am planning on just putting on an awesome 80s wig and calling it a night!
Love the idea of adding the frame to a piece of glass! I would love to do this in our bathroom and I would pick the Chelsea pewter bronze!
Thanks for the giveaway!
My daughter's going to be a ladybug this year. Thanks for the giveaway!
I have Luna Lovegood (a wizard from Harry Potter) and a ninja!
