apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

double stick tape and some interesting paper - wallpaper or wrapping paper.

Maybe some vinyl window decals? It wouldn't cover it up 100%, but would be easily removable (and reusable?)

You can take some interesting pictures in black and white or sepia and blow them up to 5"x7" or 8"x10" and use double-sided photo tape to cover the mirrors.

Buy fabric, soak it in liquid starch and slap it up. While it's drying you'll need to tape it to the frame but once it's dry it will hold until you peel it off. When you move, peel it off, wash it and you can re-use the fabric.

Buy thin clear acrylic (or Lexan) panels that are custom cut to be the same size as each mirror, sand one side and paint the sanded side any color you like. Mount the acrylic panels (unpainted side out) on the doors using 3m Command Strips (the best invention for renters ever made...). The finished effect is similar to the glossy backpainted glass wardrobe doors sold at places like Poliform for thousands of dollars. Best part is that you can have any color you want. The panels can be easily removed when you move.

you could try "limo tint" for tinting car windows. It comes in shades of gray and you can cut patterns and mount it on your doors. I cut it into squares, and made a simple graphic design. Easy on, Easy off. I have also taped off a pattern and used Christmas window spray that looks like frost. Cleaning it requires ammonia though, and takes several tries before it comes completely offffffff.....makes for an interesting Japanese screen treatment. Hope this helps.

You can buy frosted glass spray at Home Depot for less than $10/can. You need an even hand to get an even look, but I have used it on windows for when my office clients have wanted frosted glass on their office doors for privacy. When they move out, I just take a flat-edge razor and scrape it off. You could get fancy with taping down some patterns first, spraying, et voila. if it doesn't work, just start again. One thing, however, is that the spray is very stinky, so you need good ventilation before you start.

Yeah, I am not a big fan of mirrors. I don't even have one in my bedroom.

As for your issue, I would put a window film. In this way it gives you an illusion of having floor to ceiling windows instead of those mirrors.

I know that AT had featured nice fancy window films in the past but I don't remember the brand names but you may check this one out (from Home Depot)

You could always tack a muslin runner that goes top to bottom... something lightweight, and then those bambo table runners you can find at the dollar store... and run that over the top?
Go for the Asian vibe?

Is this at the top of your list for that room?

I don't see what's wrong with it!

On some design show, they used that self-stick frosted film and left thin stripes of the mirror showing. Actually looked good!

If it were me I'd remove the doors (are you handy - can you put them back up when you move?)
and hang up panels of cloth or curtains (hanging in folds). I'm pretty boho though.

Right now I'm all pleased with Urban Outfitters and Ikea - taking care of the financially challenged.

One more vote for vinyl clings. I just covered the bottom half of one window in my home. It was easy and looks great.

Found yet another available window cling design here:

One of my favorite AT bedrooms EVAR is Gari's Sexy Brown Bedroom.

If you look at the second and fourth picture, he uses those mirrored doors to great effect creating an airy depth to those dark walls. Maybe getting some color on those walls will make those mirrors pretty.

I think that putting some window film on any glass makes your home nicer and more elegant. Its an easy way to get a new look. frosted window film
