Compact Mirrors

19 years ago

Hi

I am new to this forum and have a question. I just bought all these little mirrors for another project and now I want to put a picture on the flip side of them. What I need to know is...how about the edges without getting on the mirror itself? Does this question make sense?

I just want it to look nice and smooth all around.

Thanks

Hi everyone
Ok these are pocket mirrors, but just have a raw finish on them..no metal...I wonder how I could do this?
I wanted to put a picture on the side that is not a mirror.

Or does anyone have any ideas what I could do with these mirrors?
Thanks

I would check on using the copper foil that is used in stained glass work. It will cover the edges and hold your pictures in place. Here's a link to what I'm talking about.
