*EASY* DIY INDUSTRIAL GRID MIRROR | IKEA HACK

[@tkenafolabi3483]

Can’t tell you how happy I was to see B&Q and hear your accent! Finally someone U.K. based!

[@17suki7o]

It looks fantastic, you deserve every pat in the back for making such a neat diy!

[@vanessa-d]

Thank you!! :)

[@IsThatMikey]

girl you don't even know for how long i've been wanting to buy one of these mirrors now imma deffo try and recreate it!!!

[@vanessa-d]

Same!! So glad I did it and saved some £££

[@SagarYadavIndia]

Vanessa, your honesty is amazing, the way you shared the mistakes bit as well. Thank you for a great video.

[@vanessa-d]

Glad you appreciate that!! I have no experience so had to keep it as real as possible 😝 thanks for watching!

[@KukolkaG21]

Imagine 3 of these in a row!! AHHHH THAT"D BE GORGEOUS! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@rajjie100]

Smart girl! I was waiting for you not to paint the back of mdf and see that it was reflected in the mirror but you proved me wrong!

[@andreb.8266]

Good job and with almost no tools, it was impressive to see you saw the wood. You can be proud, Happy new years !

[@vanessa-d]

Thank you! :)

[@andreacole9944]

Wow! Love how this mirror turned out. You’re creative process was really fun to watch and completely relatable.

[@lollabells6121]

Wow! I have to say FANTASTIC JOB! And the plastic underneath when gluing all the pieces together- when I saw that I had one of those “wow I feel ridiculously stupid, why didn’t I think of that moments” 😂 But hey, I think we have all been there! Your mirror looks FANTASTIC & I will say, better than ANY I have seen in the stores! What I absolutely love is you thought of everything, from plastic to how the little boards should lay so they look professional - that’s impressive planning! I’m new here & just subscribed! Thank you for sharing! I really enjoyed watching this! Great job!

[@vanessa-d]

Hahaha thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed :) xx

[@benjamintogel4215]

you go girl! I was thinking about a simple way to create one of these mirrors and this is by far the best way possible!! thanks a lot for sharing

[@rebe6853]

this is amazing we are proud of you!

[@mcoy2027]

Great job thinking to paint the side that touches the mirror... most people don’t think to do this! Also, love love love your hair.

[@vanessa-d]

I know that would’ve annoyed me seeing wood in the reflection! Aww thank you! 😌

[@bointhmors.5162]

hahaha so cute watching her put all kinda stuff to press the frame down very inspired

[@myfaceback100]

Great idea with the plastic sheet on the mirror. Simple and even better free

[@ellebaby825]

I’ve seen someone make something similar out of dollar tree mirrors and plywood! But this was just as cute! 👌🏾❤️

[@xiomaraportillo7381]

Wow looks so good. Yes you should be proud of yourself.

[@Laylaaa0630]

Looks so beautiful! And I thought the last part when you decided to spread out the glue on your grid was so smart! You were talking about how you came so far and nothing had gone wrong....that’s where it would have gone wrong for me!!!! Hahaha...I would had just flipped it over and pressed it onto the mirror oozing the glue out the sides and cursing at myself for being so stupid!! But this was so amazing! LOVE all the greenery in the space!

[@vanessa-d]

Hahahaha I almost didn’t spread it! I had to stop myself 🤣 thanks so much! Xx

[@mommygarcia9137]

Omg ! It's absolutely gorgeous !! Great job girl !!

[@jvb7179]

Best one ive seen so far! Might actually do this!!

[@vanessa-d]

Aww thank you!

[@donnawatts7381]

Thank you for this! Wanted one of these for ages but they are so expensive. Looks stunning xxx

[@ruthmbilika1111]

You are a diy princess. Very good work and looks beautiful

[@LNCapital]

Hey do you ever do Interior design for properties feel like you would be really good at it...?

[@vanessa-d]

Nope only for my own apartment!

[@shuaibsafdar1745]

Bought the mirror and definitely recreating! What MDF moulding did you buy from B&Q though!? Did you consider spray painting it rather than painting and I think the store can cut it down to size for free

[@ioneedghill4204]

One of the best diy mirror project iv viewd looks amazing will be having ago

[@mms21-]

Fantastic! I am in Houston, TX. This will save me a fortune! Thank you!

[@funwithaz2545]

[@AmandaInEly]

Great work! Looks so clean and industrial. I love it!!

[@jimmysandberg3376]

I’ve built two of these using mdf board as a back and Ikea Lots mirrors with thin wood strips between them.

[@ebonilynnyes5828]

Looks stunning!! I don’t know why the mirror looked small on the ground. But huge when you stood it up. Either way excellent work.

[@vanessa-d]

Oh yeah! Thank you :)

[@MrCarrington]

This looks so good! 😀

[@dantehubert1]

Omg i have been looking for that black metal chair for so long’ where is it from?

[@MrSanjuarez]

Also looking for that chair, did you find where its from?

[@dantehubert1]

@@MrSanjuarez Yes i did, It's from an old ikea collection called järpen

[@joyousvibes7657]

This was a great project and beautiful accent for any walkway or entrance

[@Oliviat1213]

Beautiful!Can I ask what size thickened are the mdf boards ?

[@BeautyNaturelle]

This is incredibly dope. Thanks for sharing, Vanessa

[@deloresmc2659]

[@vanessa-d]

Exactly! When I plan things it all goes wrong haha

[@merryberryspeaks]

[@alyssobool9948]

This look amazing! I'm totally going to recreate. It's exactly the focal piece I was looking for in my future interior basement design!

[@hatiice]

Wow you did a fab job👍👍👍 looks so good.

[@cakehead79uk]

Definitely worth all that effort, it looks great! You should invest in a better saw/cutting table though! Well done!

[@nilsp9386]

Hey Vanessa...Nice one!! Thats proper girl power there! Looks really nice - Im looking to make this for my outerhouse! BTW - I noticed the Vegan cookbooks - love it!! :)

[@babivisuals]

This was perfect! Love how you explain it very well, I’ not a English native speaker but I understood. Just sorry because I’m my city (coast of Rio de Janeiro) mirrors are really expensive

[@vanessa-d]

Awww that’s great to hear! Thanks for watching :)

[@shannonlloyd556]

This is amazingggg, I want to make my own now!

[@SaeraMarySanthosh03]

Loved this! What's the name of the mirror you used?

[@tanyakhan5013]

This is genius ,,,was just about to pay £190 from insta boutique so glad i found this👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@vanessa-d]

Yesss! Glad it’s helpful :)

[@freyaknudsen3650]

I'm guna give this a try, looks fab and reasonably priced :)

[@vanessa-d]

Do it! X

[@ciarasmith2609]

Also b&q have a cutting sectio & can cut for free for you so if you need MDF cut into pieces they can do it once you have measurements and dont need a saw then :)

[@caramelsky7606]

Great work 🥰

[@CayberTurk]

Soooo good 👍🏼 i love it♥️

[@cieloapariciocaceres]

Thanks for this tutorial! I loved it!

[@kinakomouri6604]

Beautifully done👍

[@emmamurphy7317]

Love how it turned out! Good job :D

[@vanessa-d]

Thanks so much!!

[@mah6183]

Whoa... age requirement to buy a saw? Interesting. Why?

[@vanessa-d]

I know!! Think it might just be in B&Q lol

[@leanneroost4883]

mah6183 because children shouldn’t be able to just walk into a shop and buy a saw!

[@ArnoldQMudskipper]

@@leanneroost4883 24 years old = child? 🤔

[@mah6183]

@@leanneroost4883 you'll find no small number of American men in their 40s or 50s, and older who were using a saw for all sorts of projects as early as 12 years old. I wouldn't put an electric saw in the hands of some one under 16, but a hand saw, sure. In fact, I was showing my four-year-old grandson how to use a saw just the other day. Familiarity with hand tools is a very important skill. If you don't learn young, you will be more dangerous with it when you get older... Like 25! ☺

[@AmiAmarantaml]

I work in B&Q and most stores have a Challenge 25 policy and if you look under that age you will be asked for ID, even if you are just browsing the knife section. Also there are tester pots for that paint, you didn't need to buy a full size tin!!

[@freomoodfly]

well done looks great

[@KatieSanvick]

fabulous, girl! i love it!

[@abie594]

this would look great as a coffee table too

[@StephanieG7]

Seeing you at IKEA right now makes me sad. I miss this

[@0096jxn]

Another idea: I would have nailed the grid to the frame instead of gluing it to the mirror. This way you can eventually change its look without much problem!!

[@JtruUk]

This is such a clever idea and it looks really nice. :)

[@mariag38]

BEAUTIFUL! How did you do that plant?

[@vanessa-d]

It’s about 10 of the Ikea Fejka hanging plant on a table! :)

[@joseferrer6674]

So good!

[@13ees.]

Hey girl, so i’m coming here asking for ur HELP!! If you can make this then i believe in you, butttt can you do a diy moon mirror?? Have you seen them? Like they’re a crescent moon on the side of a circular mirror but it’s puffy and realistic with craters and everything. But if not then i still love your work, honestly never found anyone as crafty as you!!

Well done 👏👏👏👌👌👌 Amazing 👌👌👌

[@atlantadenning8322]

Where to did you get the plastic sheet from x

Awesome gal !!! I will do it, for my living room :)

[@JDEVINCI]

That would make a hellaofa coffee table

[@vanessa-d]

oooo could be a vibe 😏

[@pngivan]

I immediately knew you were from the UK when I saw B&Q

[@sandykoong]

You gotta use millimetres when making something. Don't measure in centimetres. Every millimetre counts.

[@vanessa-d]

Nah I did decimals to the mm which is the same thing!

[@HairofHeritage]

Love it! Well done!!

[@Ans0087]

What’s the black metal planter in the intro?
