# DIY Hanging Mirrors Touch up Your Room with This Reflective Home Project By Jamie Danielle Munro | Published 2014-05-08 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hanging-mirrors References: [sugarandcloth](http://sugarandcloth.com/2014/05/diy-hanging-mirror/) When it comes to hanging mirrors, unless you buy one that's designed for the task, it can be very tricky to place these on one's walls. Featured on Sugar and Cloth but done by Aileen from At Home in Love, this hanging mirror is done with some leather materials and even a paper mache hat box. The only difficult part might be trying to find a mirror that fits the right sized hat box, as it doesn't look as good if the mirror is too small. Once you find this, all that's needed is to superglue the mirror in the box, attach the [leather straps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/through-chrome-reflections) and hang this to the wall with a nail or tack. Instead of leaning this on a dresser it can now be put anywhere in your room! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Customizable Home Decor:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating DIY home decor projects that allow for customization and personalization. - **Creative Use of Everyday Items:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in finding unique and unconventional ways to repurpose everyday items for home decoration. - **Functional Wall Art:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in designing home decor pieces that serve a dual purpose, such as combining mirrors with storage or shelving. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating innovative and customizable home decor products and solutions that cater to individual tastes and preferences. - **DIY & Craft:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in providing tools, materials, and resources that empower individuals to create their own unique home decor pieces and projects. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in incorporating creative and unconventional design solutions that enhance the functionality and aesthetic appeal of living spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Geometrical Golden Ratio Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ascension-wall-mirror.md) - [Retro Jelly Mold-Inspired Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jelly-mirror.md) - [Dynamic Structural Mirror Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bton-brut.md) - [Celestial Mirror Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suzanne-oddy.md) - [Stunningly Bold Mirror Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bold-mirror.md) - [Illusory Doorway Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/panis-mirror.md) - [Sculpturally Artistic Copper Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manu-bano-obj08-mirrors.md) - [Curvaceous Shelf-Paired Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wave-mirror.md) - [Colorful Retro Pixel Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paint-mirror.md)
