Why not buy a ready-made glasses or helmet mount mirror? Most are under $20. I've tried a few, and my favorite is the Take-A-Look short-arm version ~$14.

On the other hand, I have enjoyed "bodging" my own "kludges" over the years.
But I really don;t think you're going to do better than the Take-A-Look Mirror, and the price is right.
See if any of your local bike shops carry them, and if not then you can find it online.
