    If you want to.keep it, have a professional.remove it. If not, tape an old bed sheet over it and tap it with a hammer till it crumbles.

  • Do it yourself, but tape the mirror in case of breakage and for safety. How is the mirror attache? Does it have clips?

    usually they use a construction adhesive, behind the mirror, it will break if you pry with flat bar, be very slow and careful, protect your eyes, and wear tough gloves, etc.

    I had the same thing and I choose to frame mine rather then take them down. However, mine were only held on by the clips. Make sure you tape it well before you attempt to take it down and, of course, have a helper.

    Framing it seems like a better idea for me. Is this something similar to putting molding and chair-rails in?
