Feng Shui Bedroom Tips For Mirrored Closet Doors

You may be aware that mirrors are a no-no if you want your bedroom to have good Feng Shui.

Why? Check out the Feng Shui impact of mirrors in your bedroom.

Most mirrors are easy enough to remove to another place in your home, even if it’s simply to the hallway just outside your bedroom door.

But what is the Feng Shui impact when your bedroom closets have mirrored sliding doors?

Mirrored doors are a vast surface of glass in your bedroom: hard, reflective Yang energy that can spoil the nurturing atmosphere you need for intimacy, relaxation, and a good night’s sleep.

If replacing the doors isn’t an option, you can still create good Feng Shui in your bedrroom.

1. Consider clever ways to disguise them by covering the glass surface, as in the photo below.

 These doors are covered with beautiful grass-cloth, which has the additional benefit of bringing a bit of nature into the room. However there is still an element of hardness to this solution, so I prefer idea #2,

 

 

 

 

2. Cover the doors with curtains you can close at night.

This photo shows the soft wall of texture that beautiful curtains can create, a big improvement over hard mirrors or doors.

Select a beautiful fabric that enhances your bedroom. Lightweight curtains you can easily open by day and which completely cover the mirrors when it’s time to relax at night are ideal.

 

The Feng Shui benefits of covering your mirrored closet doors will be immediately apparent in things like better sleep and enhanced intimacy with your partner.

Cover the doors to enhance your life immediately.

      Yes, that sounds like a wise idea. If you find that you are not sleeping well you may want to find a way to cover up the mirror at night even though you can’t see it directly from your bed.

    I have a mirrored closet facing somewhat the side of my bed, mostly just my feet and end of my bed also i have a dresser with a mirror that faces my bed. I’m thinking of placing a curtain over closet, but is there anything else I can do to fix this?

    • AnnFengShui

      Lyn, if possible I recommend removing the mirror from the dresser; sometimes they can be used in another place in your home. It makes a huge difference in the peacefulness of your bedroom.

    The entryway to your space needs a sense of flow and openness, so a mirror in that position is perfect, both for opening up the entryway and for evoking the Water element!
