How can I reuse two bi-fold linen closet doors, each side 2' wide?

The doors were removed when I took out the linen closet in order to bring washer and dryer up from the low-ceiling basement (house is 80-years-old) to largish main floor bathoom. I need ideas for reusing the louvered doors, one or both sides. Each side of the door is in two 12" sections. I'm open to just about any suggestions for re-use, including cutting them down.

Build a frame in a corner that will accommodate the width of the doors, then attach the doors to the frame for your corner cabinet.
You can clip family pictures to the louvers with little clothes pins from a craft store. May have to turn the doors the other way or you can also use yarn or ribbon like a clothesline.
They could be used to make a room divider, by joining them with hinges.

Well you could paint them add hinges and use them as a room divider in a corner or to the basement stair to hide item in plain view.
This is what I did:

Still love them!
You could use them outside for some privacy, trellis, backdrop for container plants......
I've also used them for clipping a lot of relatives from generations pasts on them. Embellished clothespins - as fancy as you prefer. Each section represents a different limb of the family tree ;) Have fun!
Just happened to see this pic. Even if your not into the painting technique you could leave as is and just add the shelf - just an idea ♥
