The closet with all of our stuff just crammed in. It wasn't organized and had lots of wasted space!
Below is a photo of it after. I put a Billy Bookcase from IKEA in the middle of our closet to divide "his" and "hers" sides.
We bought a ClosetMaid system from Home Depot so that everything is adjustable.
The closet is still a work in progress and is messy because we are packing for our vacation that we are going on soon.
Cody has no clothes. He won't ever let me buy him any either!
There is brown contact paper that is glued down on the floor of the closet.
We had trouble getting it off. I guess it's a project for another day!
I used Bulls Eye Primer to paint the closet doors, 2 coats. Then 3 coats of white semi-gloss paint.
Once the doors were painted, it was time to put them back up! (Happy Dance!!)
Chloe loves to watch us work on the house.
I'm pretty excited that I don't have to look at the clutter that my closet becomes anymore.
My bedroom is going to feel much cleaner now!
The room is getting nearer to be finished, but still have some work to do.Tour my home HERE.
It makes such a difference! And I don't think your closet looks messy at all haha.
ReplyDeleteWell I am glad you don't think it looks messy. I thought I should wait to post photos until I cleaned it up, but decided I was too excited to wait. :)
DeleteOh I love this! It's amazing what a coat of paint can do :) And I love the Billy case. I have one just like it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Billy Bookcases can be used in so many great ways!!
DeleteI've never seen a step-up closet like that. How unique!!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is unique. I love the drawers underneath as well. Lots of good storage. I guess it was a 1950's thing.
DeleteHi Jessie! Your bedroom looks fantastic! What a difference. Makes me want to paint my entire place pink with white doors! I love your Dr. Suess painting and your black and white flower print pillow. You have a great eye for detail.
ReplyDeleteThanks Peggy! It is hard for me not to want to paint every room pink! I am very happy with the way the room is coming together. I just need to find a dresser!!
DeleteLove the look of the remodel and you dog is adorable!

Thank you so much!!! :)
DeleteIt looks awesome! haha I love how many more clothes you have on your side! The painting on the wall is awesome too. Where did you find the phrase? I think I need to get it on my wall too!
ReplyDeleteThe phrase is a Dr. Seuss quote from The Lorax! :) I loved painting it.
DeleteThat looks like crazy hard work. I'm glad it was all worth it because it looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't too bad. I am glad that I can just roll the paint on with a roller. That makes the painting part easy. Cody had the hard job of trying to get the closet doors back on the track! :( BUT, the results are way worth it.
