Repurposed louvered door and full length mirror


You might remember a few months ago when we had our master bathroom expanded so we could replace our tiny vanity with a double... No? Okay here's a refresher.  Part of that renovation included combining our two reach and grab closets into one 'large' closet (and I do use that world loosely').



We replaced the single slated doors with two 3' wide french doors.  


Not ready to part with both the louvered doors, I held on to one with the intention of reusing it in the bedroom to hold the mirror that for-the-life-of-me would not stay upright on its stand.  Here's what my mirror looked like before.


Anyway, I finally got around to finishing up this project and while it was months in the making for me, it's really a fairly quick one.  If you don't have a mirror already, you can always get a large wall or over the door mirror from somewhere like Walmart.  They are pretty inexpensive....like single digits.

Since I already had a mirror, I disassembled it from the stand and painted the door and the mirror frame the same color so they would look unified.  I filled in the hole in the door from the door knob with a patch and some plaster.   I apologize I don't have many pictures of this project in the works...

Then I simply used a couple of heavy duty wall mounts - I like the claws - and put them right into the door.  On the back of the mirror I added D-rings to hang the mirror directly onto the door.


Currently, I have the mirror leaning in the corner, of my bedroom sort of beside and behind the Ikea chair that I gave a little makeover to...it's not exactly the best spot, but it's definitely better than balancing act I was perfoming on the edge of the bathtub while holding onto the shower curtain rod as I tried to catch a full length glimpse of myself in the bathroom vanity mirror.   Stop laughing...

 
Thanks for stopping by 2IY! If you like what you see, we'd love for you to pin it!

  3. If the original was a compelling and memorable proof of concept, then slime rancher 2 comes much closer to a final product that benefits from years of fine-tuning – even in this early state.
