If you're not ready to completely simplify and romanticize your home, you can start by adding small touches of cottagecore decor to your space. A cute, easy project to introduce unique and countryside chic? A DIY cottagecore mirror. Mirrors can be more than just something to look into. They make great statement pieces with their unique shapes and sizes. If placed properly, mirrors can brighten your home and give a room the illusion of being bigger. With the addition of some faux foliage and other supplies from your nearest Dollar Tree, you can turn a few small mirrors into the perfect functional and stylish wall accent piece. 

Assembling your cottagecore mirrors

To begin creating your themed mirrors, head to your local Dollar Tree to pick up your supplies. Browse the floral selection in the crafting aisle and pick the faux foliage and succulents that call to you. Stay with a green theme by picking faux plants or add touches of color by picking up other faux flowers, like lavender or other dainty florals, to match the cottagecore vibe you're going for. After picking your flowers, grab some Floral Garden floral or reindeer moss to add an extra dash of nature to your project. Make sure you don't checkout without the main component of this project: mirrors. Hexagon mirrors are a solid option to add a modern and contemporary twist to your DIY decor, but there are framed and rectangular options that make for good alternatives. Pick up a hot glue gun and glue sticks if you don't already have one at home.

After gathering the necessary materials, you can start assembling your new wall decor. Start by cutting the foliage off of your faux plants. You can cut them individually or in bunches depending on how much greenery you want on your mirrors. Once cut, start arranging them on your mirrors and stick them down with a hot glue gun. Do the same with any succulents or flowers if you purchased any. Use the moss to fill in any empty spaces and cover up any smatterings and dollops of hot glue. If you're creating multiple mirrors, feel free to get creative and make each mirror into its own unique design. When you're done assembling your one-of-a-kind, DIY cottagecore mirrors, hang them up for function or use them to decorate your room or living space.
