A mirror decorated with various seafood, such as shells, is perfect for a bathroom. To do this, you will need a mirror, shells, faux pearls, glue, a small piece of cloth, and a glass cleaner. The first step is to degrease the surface of the mirror, then place it on a flat surface. Next, carefully arrange the shells and pearl beads in the order you wish. The "frame" looks interesting, that is, the shells laid along the edges of the mirror. Once all the elements are laid, they must be glued and allowed to dry with the glue.

Then apply white acrylic paint to a certain area of the mirror using a sponge (for example, only on the lower part of the mirror), let the paint dry. Then apply a second coat of the same paint.
After the second layer has dried, you need to take napkins with drawings and carefully tear off (just tear off) the drawings you like and place them on the paint. Apply glue to the center of each piece of napkin with a pattern and gently spread it over the entire surface of the pattern so that there are no folds and bubbles.
Allow the glue to dry, then varnish.
