Cut out pictures with which to decorate the mirror. Use any pictures you want: photos of you and your friends or images from magazines. They can be as large or as small as you like, though generally, they should not be so large as to inhibit your view of the mirror.

Tape the pictures to the mirror, creating a collage. You can make them overlap or space them out as desired. Use a small loop of Scotch tape on the back to hold the pictures in place until they're positioned just as you want them.

Tape down the edges of the pictures using the clear Scotch tape. This will make your decorations look more finished. Make sure that the pictures are flat against the mirror and that the tape does not have any wrinkles in it. The pictures will look like part of the mirror when you are finished.

Accent your collage with the clear-back stickers. You can use thought bubble stickers to make the people in the pictures appear to be thinking or saying things. You can use theme stickers to go along with the events in the pictures. If you prefer, you can even forgo the pictures and just decorate with the stickers. Make sure the stickers are flat against the mirror so that there are no wrinkles in them.

Tips & Warnings
You can also write on wall mirrors with most paint pens. The paint comes off with mild detergent and water. However, test your paint pen in a small area in the corner of the mirror before you go wild, just in case it's permanent.
