Promoting Freedom for Creative Architecture
The author transformed basic mirrored sliding closet doors in their daughter's room using decorative fretwork panels called Overlays. Initially, the author attempted to create a custom trim design using thin trim and a miter box but found precise angled cuts too difficult to manage. Seeking professional help, the author reached out to My Overlays, who successfully replicated a custom door design based on inspiration photos.
My Overlays provided various design options for the fretwork panels, allowing the author to choose one that closely matched their vision. After selecting a design, My Overlays created custom panels specifically for the mirrored doors.
The author used Goop glue to attach the Overlays to the mirrors, opting against liquid nails for ease of removal. The installation process was straightforward, taking 30 minutes or less to complete. This quick and simple makeover dramatically altered the appearance of the closet doors without hindering their functionality.
The makeover of the mirrored closet doors was a significant and impressive change in the room’s overall decor. The author also made other decorative changes to the room, enhancing the aesthetic impact. Satisfied with the results, the author expressed enthusiasm for potentially using My Overlays products in future projects.
The author shared before and after photos of the room, illustrating the dramatic transformation. They encouraged readers to follow them on social media for more decorating ideas and updates, fostering a sense of community and shared inspiration.
