Hey everyone, this was a mirror I did for one of my friend's sister's birthday. I did a mirror previously that did not have a defined edge, so you can see the difference and decide which one you prefer:) More information can be found on my blog. This is a simplified tutorial. There are many ways to do deco-den, This is just how I do it:)I hope you like and understand the tutorial:)

You Will Need (7 things)
- Scotch Tape

Steps (5 steps, 300 minutes)
-
1
Firstly, prepare the working area so that I will know where everything is.
-
2
Decide the design of the mirror and arrange the cabochons to your liking. Apply glue to mirror and attach the cabochons.

If you want a border, tape down the sides so that the glue will not touch the sides. Add the bigger rhinestones first. Use tweezers to pick them up.
Tip: try to add more big rhinestones as they are more shiny, it will look nicer. -
4
From the edges, add rhinestones area by area. I recommend small areas at a time, then let it dry while you do another area.
