How-to Tutorial
Step 1 1 Engraving
List of materials and tools
1. Piece of mirror
2. Wooden blocks
3. Hot glue
4. Utility knife
5. Piece of LED strip or garland
6. Glass cutter
7. Kerosene
First, we need to choose a small mirror and engrave a skull on its back side. I have provided the file above. Follow all the settings indicated. The material you choose does not matter. After engraving, you will need to cut the mirror so that it fits into the frame. To
do this, mark a line on the mirror along which you will break off the unnecessary part, run a glass cutter filled with kerosene along the line, and break off the unnecessary part. Repeat this 3 more times.
Be sure to wear protective gloves when working with glass to avoid cuts.

Step 2 Creating the frame
You will need 1 piece of wood measuring 3.7 x 0.7 x 0.7 cm
2 pieces of wood measuring 52 x 0.7 x 0.7 cm
and 37 x 20 x 20 cm
You can pre-burn the pieces of wood with a lighter.
Use a utility knife to cut a hole in each bar that is the same thickness as the mirror, connect all the parts except for the bottom one on the mirror, and glue them together with hot glue.
Make a hole in the stand that is 2-3 mm deeper to fit the LED strip.
Then glue a piece of LED strip to the base and connect it to the second part of the frame and the mirror, securing everything with hot glue.
