Designing Your Romantic Scene 🎨

The Decoden style gives you the freedom to create a miniature scene of romance on the back of the mirror.

Selecting Your Love-ly Components

Mirror Canvas: Start with an inexpensive folding travel mirror. Choose a base color that complements your Valentine’s Day color scheme.
Romantic Palette: Select cream glue in classic Valentine’s Day shades – think passionate crimson, delicate rose, and pristine ivory, with optional shimmering accents of gold or silver.
Expressions of Affection: Gather a charming collection of Valentine’s Day-themed decorations, such as heart-shaped charms, delicate beads, sparkling cabochons, or tiny flowers.

Piping and Placement

Heartfelt Foundation: Attach a piping tip to your cream glue and apply it to the back of your mirror. Create a textured background—swirls, waves, or dollops—to prepare the surface for your decorations.
Arrangement: Using a pair of tweezers (essential for small items), carefully pick up and place your decorations onto the still-wet glue. Arrange these elements to create a visually appealing and meaningful composition.
Shimmering Accents: Incorporate rhinestones, sequins, or luminous pearls to enhance the beauty and capture the magic of Valentine’s Day.

Curing for a Lasting Reflection 🔒

To ensure your personalized mirror is durable and long-lasting, follow the drying instructions carefully.

Allow to Set: Place your decorated mirror in a safe, undisturbed location and allow it to dry completely. Do not move it until the glue is hard.
Drying Time: The glue needs to air-dry, which typically takes overnight, ensuring it fully hardens and securely holds all your chosen embellishments.
Reflect Your Style: Once your creation is fully dry and set, your unique Valentine’s Day mirror is ready to use and show off!
