The Dolls House: Miss Teen's Room

I was looking for something (can't remember what) in my stash of dolls house stuff when I found this little mirror. I think it was among the things included with number 2 dolls house when I bought it from ebay.

I knew exactly what to do with it, it would make a nice wall mirror for Miss Teen's room

I cut out some pieces of cardboard for the backing and surround and
used some sparkly silver ribbon to stick onto the cardboard  

It was very fiddly cutting and sticking tiny pieces of ribbon on the edges. I even mitred the corners.
I fitted the mirror around the edges at the back, slightly overlapping to hold it in place,
and then stuck the backing piece of cardboard firmly in place. 

And Miss Teen is very pleased with the result.

  2. The frame looks metallic and works beautifully with the wallpaper in the bedroom. I also like the way it reflects the opposite wall and the vanity- Well Done!
