To make your scrying mirror, you’ll need the following:
* A clear glass plate
* Matte black spray paint
* Additional paints (acrylic) for embellishment
You can use any kind of picture frame with the glass in that, and decorate the frame your way. To prepare the mirror, first you’ll need to clean it. Use any glass cleaner, or for a more earth-friendly method, use vinegar mixed with water. Once the glass is clean, flip it over so that the back side is facing up. Lightly spray with the matte black spray paint. For the best result, hold the can a couple of feet away, and spray from side to side. If you hold the can too close, the paint will pool, and you don’t want this as it should be a flat sheen finish. As each coat dries, add another coat. After five to six coats, the paint should be dense enough that you can’t see through the paint if you hold the glass up to a light.
Once the paint has dried, turn the glass right side up. Use your acrylic paint to add embellishments around the outer edge of the glass frame, you can add symbols of your tradition, magical sigils, or even your favorite saying. Allow these to dry as well. Your mirror is ready for scrying. Now put a candle to the mirror so the flame is reflected and stare into it and see what you will see.
