Mirror material

[89AKurt]

Mirrors are always a challenge to make realistic, as in actually reflecting.  Look at glitter, the bigger confetti such as stars, it's clear plastic that is coated on one side like real glass mirror.  I don't know how to track down the original manufacturer of that, other than ask the glitter company in China.  An aftermarket detail company who can get that in sheets would have a popular product.

I’ve found something kind of similar but haven’t tried it yet...will report back when I’ve given it a shot!

Flat sequins should do just fine: https://www.ebay.com/itm/20mm-PVC-Flat-Round-loose-Sequins-Paillettes-sewing-Wedding-Craft-Accessories/224230182521?hash=item3435290e79:g:6S0AAOSwDxdfq18B

If you know anyone using the patches to quit smking they come on sheets of reflective plastic. I've been saving mine to try on mirrors

Oh good, thank you.  I did search 'mirror' before I started this topic.
