I used a biscuit joiner. But you also can use wood glue and clamps to join the corners together.
Just Finish It....

Crew the backer board on the frame with screws.
Turn the mirror and aply contruction glue to mirror into the frame.
Use some wire on the back so that you can hang the mirror on the wall.
