Stacey Solomon shows off panel mirror hack using £1 Ikea frames and it’s so easy
STACEY Solomon has revealed her hack for getting fashionable panel mirrors on a budget and it’s actually very easy.
The mum-of-three, 31, showed herself doing some DIY on Instagram yesterday, while youngest son Rex was having a nap.
She said: “I’m going to try and make a giant mirror. I feel like I really need something in these big white spaces (in her living room) and I love those giant panel mirrors but they’re so expensive.
“So I bought these black frames and mirrors from Ikea, all together cost £30 so I really hope I can make it look nice”.
Stacey bought nine black frames and nine panel mirrors of the same size, costing £1.25 and £1 respectively, describing fitting the frames as “the most therapeutic thing ever”.
To put that into context, Maisons du Monde charge £110 for a very similar nine panel mirror.
Stacey used command strips, a spirit level, a tape measure and a pencil to hang them up.
The Loose Women presenter explained: “I put a line in the middle then put two mirrors either side of the dot and worked from there…”
Stacey also added a mirror sticker from her sister the The Label Lady, which reads “You Are Enough”.
She said: “My sister had the best idea ever to make it even more special – Love this”.
Showing off the finished job, Stacey added: “I can’t tell you how happy this is making me. I can’t believe it. For £30 I’m soooo happy.
“I know it’s sad but I just love it. I think I might put more labels. What do you think?
“My sister has made positive ones especially for mirrors and they’re just so beautiful”.
