it needs to sit on the shelf
Why? Anything sitting there risks sliding forward off the surface (you can't underestimate kids' abilities to do shit that can injure themselves).
We have hooks and loops like these for bigger mirrors
You're going to need to secure it at the bottom too, though, if it's not flat to the wall. TV straps might work.

Delete IG/Pinterest - hang on wall over mantel - put art, birthday cards, trinkets etc on mantel.
or
couldn't you just use chord with loops hooked back to the wall - get the tension right so its taught with the mirror leaning. secure bottom first with the mirror leaning forward, then tilt back and hook the top ? -
You need to close the lid on the cereal box and store it in a dry and cool place.

Jizz a load of no more nails on the back. Then for belt and braces drill holes at the top centre, bottom left and right, countersink and pop through some fischer hammerfix. Fill the holes and touch up with paint.

Little nails driven into the fireplace so the mirror can't slide forward? One on the left and one on the right
Could always touch them up with white paint to try and hide them

Can anyone tell me how I should hang/secure this mirror?
Wife wants it to rest on the shelf/fireplace.
Currently some cord attached to a picture hook is preventing it falling but apparently it’ll be my fault if it falls down at some stage even if kids throw things at it…
Has 2x hooks and I could put in some screws to hang it from but it needs to sit on the shelf and I reckon it’ll be tough to get it exact.
