Good source for getting bathroom mirrors?

It's time for me to get mirrors for all the baths, and I'm having a hard time finding any that I like. I prefer a framed mirror. Any suggestions on where to get them? Thanks.
**ALSO, do you guys match mirror color with faucets/lights, or does anything go these days? You'd never think buying these 7 mirrors would be so difficult, lol!

    Thanks, Lucy! I have yet to go to Kirklands. I need to remember to go by there! It's been a while since I've been to HL as well. How's your house coming along?

    Our master bath and powder room mirrors were made at a local framing shop. Might not be the least expensive way to do it (price depends on what you select), but you get what you want and framing shops have a nice variety you don't see elsewhere.

    One guest bath has an antique I painted and glazed. The other two bathrooms have framed mirrors purchased at a locally owned home store.

    The way I've always looked at bathroom mirrors - are usually the largest accessory in the room. Sometimes the only framed piece in the room. Break it down, pennies a day. And, you can take them with you when you move.

    My cabinet maker will make custom frames for the bathroom mirrors to match the cabinets and it's actually a really good price.

    I found a pretty one at Home Goods for the powder room, but for the children's baths, I had the trim carpenter frame them out with our trim, then the painters painted them. Very pretty, and very built-in looking. I don't think it cost much at all,,,I mean, there was tons of trim laying around, and the carpenters were here all the time anyway. In our master, though, I wanted something more, I don't know...delicate? Fancy? It was just too d@mn hard to find the right size, and just right style of mirrors that would work over our double vanity. My ID suggested we do a big plate (I know, I was like "whaaa?") but have a thick bevel around the edges and mount the sconces through the mirror. It is absolutely beautiful and perfect. I would never have thought I wouldn't have a framed mirror! Unfortunately, it ended up costing much more than having the carpenters frame it....apparently beveling is some lost ancient art, lol.

    I had this long reply typed out, and then it disappeared. We moved in about a month ago. Good luck with your build, look forward to seeing pictures!

    Buy mirror (next size up is OK if you need it), cut to desired size at framing shop, frame it up.

    I did the same as Lucy-some at Kirklands, some at Hobby Lobby.

    It wasn't a bathroom mirror, but I needed a mirror that was a specific size and style, and so I ordered the frame from AmericanFrame.com and then brought it to my local glass shop and had them put a mirror in it. It ended up being less expensive than a lot of the not-quite-right mirrors I was finding in stores.

    Here is a link that might be useful: American Frame

    There's a closeout furniture place near us. They have lots of framed mirrors for dressers that they sell seperately. We managed to find ones that were a good fit for our spare bathrooms. They look awesome, and averaged $20 each... I can't get a miror for that, forget about it being framed.

    Look at southeastern salvage. I got large, nice mirrors there for our master and the upstairs bath. The powder room mirror came from our lighting store (quality) and I refurbished an old mirror for our basement bath.
