Free 'Portal 2' inspired mirror

I recently played Portal 2 for the first time, and I have to say it is an amazing game. I wanted to make something portal related for my room that was relatively quick and easy, and using only stuff I had lying around.

Thus I made my Portal 2 inspired mirror.

Step 1: Materials

The materials are pretty simple. I used:

• A cheap old mirror
• A very old rope light
• A dimmer switch from who-knows-when
• And some paper, tape, scissors, paperclips, and nails

Bringing my first instructable out soon on this, thanks for a design that I tweaked and hoped to have improved upon (with a heftier budget)

Very fun :) It would be sweet if another person in the house had a mirror and you put the orange lights around that one! You should enter this into the Holiday Gifts Contest!
