The added weight of the flooring may break the mirrors of they can pull away from the wall. Best is to remove them. Breaking them and peeling them off is the fastest way. Sometimes you can use a wide putty knife and get behind them and gently force them off. You can cut through the adhesive using the piano wire or any rough wire. Have some help around and wear safety equipment.
I would remove them. A glass company can come and do it for you.
If you truly hate them... just bite the bullet and take them out... SAFELY.. of course.. any thing attached to them could break them or pull them down...
Once they are down you can cover the walls with drywall and do whatever you want there.
What you could do is cover them with fabric like wallpaper. Soak fabric in liquid starch, wring it out and apply to the mirrors. Peels right off when you decide to change it or remove the mirrors.
Peel & stick wallpaper. Use plank design like salvaged wood at bottom akin to wainscot, different coordinating design above it. When that's complete, add a vinyl light weight peel & stick molding strip (white or paint) over seam & if desired, a peek & stick wallpaper border above molding &/or at ceiling. This is easy to do. Costs some but less than actual remodel to remove & repair wall damage. Amazon has many designs to fit most every taste.
Great idea with the wall paper. Yes it would stick.
how about a wall mural?
Go with the peel and stick. Smooth out from center to edge. If you get some bubbles pierce them with a needle/pin and smooth. You can caulk the seams in the mirrors and use a wet finger to smooth them out level. You can wrap the peel and stick around the metal edges. OOOH! Florida sounds great, but with Christmas coming my family wouldn't understand.
Hope you'll post a pic of this project when you're done. I'd love to see it!
