How to make a DIY papercraft mirror frame for your home
Give your home an instant spring update with Zoë Patching’s beautiful flower mirror

Published:
Bring the outside inside with this gorgeous floral mirror. Forget about having a spring clean – this mirror can easily transform a room and looks great either hung up or leant against a wall.
It’s a quick and easy way to give a tired-looking mirror a new lease of life! Plus, unlike the real thing, paper flowers will last through spring and beyond.
Zoe has used pretty colours of non-patterned papers to die-cut and roll two different styles of quilled flower, using dies from the Sara Signature Sew Lovely collection. These have been arranged onto a background frame, hand-cut to fit the mirror in white mount card.
The floral frame is finished by adding smaller pre-made paper flowers between the larger quilled booms.
