Here is my Magic Mirror

• 32" TV (bought from auction for £35 as sound doesn’t work)
• Raspberry Pi 2 B+ (thought RasPi 3 would be overkill)
• Frame bought from Dunelm, original mirror removed and replaced with two way glass
• Frame is mounted to the wall using metal wall brackets (second image), luckily the spacing was perfect and allows easy access to ports
• Running Amazon Alexa Voice service in the background (activated by LED push switch)

@kanczug It was pretty easy to setup! Basically followed the instructions in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frH9HaQTFL8)

I connected the button to GPIO18

Noticed my first button didn’t work unless I had a 10k resistor between the button and GPIO18

I bought an external sound card for the mic and speakers from PiHut for £3!
