How should I replace mirrored closet bedroom sliding doors?
I mistakenly asked this question on another project piece, Sorry.I read how bad mirrors in bedrooms are for sleep in a feng shui context, thank you, Jewel. I can take the doors down but what should I replace them with OR is there a permanent way to mask them? Thank you. colleen

They do have replacement doors that do not have mirrors but you can also use wallpaper, self stick shelf paper, film that is used on windows so you cannot see in. There are any number of ways to cover the mirrors if you do not want to replace doors.
Here are a bunch of options for you!

Hello Colleen, Mask them Clings. or Contact or Wallpaper or Fabric. or draw curtains or blinds in front of them or even screens............
If you choose to take them down, the easiest and least costly replacement is tension rods designed to hold shower curtains across the doorways and either curtains or shower curtains (you would need to shorten regular curtains or lengthen shower curtains) to mask the interior of the closet.
If you don't want to take them down, you could use either contact paper to cover them or you might be able to use some sort of glue and something like mulberry paper (an art paper with lovely visual texture) to cover the mirror. If using contact paper or mulberry paper, a light color over the mirror might allow for a little light reflection to still happen without the mirrors showing.
Hi Colleen.
I believe you can paint them. Here is a link for you.
