thanks for the directions for framing the bathroom plate glass mirror.

QUESTION:

How do I hang it once it's framed?
Now it is hld up with decoative plasti mirror hangers.

It is large and heavy.

Thanks

I got an idea to hang decorative mirrors above each sink onto my full wall mirror in my bathroom. Can I do this myself or should I call a glass professional? If I can do it myself, how do I go about it?
