It wasn't exactly the picture of organization.
I tried to pretty it up with the hanging shoe organizer and matching bin on top, but we ended up not using them very much. The closet rod was also too close to the shelf, so it made hanging stuff a little difficult.
There was always a major shoe explosion on the bottom. That's because Shaun just throws them in there willy nilly. Not my fault!!
The inside of this closet was painted with a Boozie-Susie special: high gloss white paint that is one step away from a mirror shine. With tons of drips and smears, obviously. More pics of this hott mess paint job to come.
The best features of the closet are the cute little window that gives tons of natural light (it doesn't open)
and the full-length mirror that is attached to the door with molding.
Starting Sunday, I've been working on making this closet blog-worthy. After I did some workouts on Exercise TV, of course. Rest assured you will see more of my progress as the week goes on. Let's just go ahead and call it 'closet week', okay?
Cant wait to see what you will do!
ReplyDeleteLove your entry way chandelier! That last pic (with the great pose by you of course!!) is my favourite. Can't wait to see what you do with the closet I desperately need some inspriation for mine!
ReplyDeleteI found your pretty blog today on "Its Great to Be Home," and I am so glad I did! I love your picture and comments at the beginning of your blog. If I ever cross stitch something, "DIY or die trying" is about the most perfect maxim. Great job!
ReplyDeleteYour closet catastrophes make me feel right at home. Good luck on a continuing crisis at my house. Glad you were pointed out to me, so now I will look forward to repeat visits!
Can't wait to see what you do! I did a closet makeover last weekend, it was much improved, but still not blog worthy! Can't wait to see yours for inspiration!
ReplyDeleteOk, can I say that I am UBER EXCITED about what you will do to this closet! I have been following your blog for a while and this was definitely one of the blogs I went to for the inspiration for my bedroom remodel, you definitely are encouraging the inner-DIYer in me!

ReplyDeleteHey that looks like my shoe explosion! I can't wait to see what you've done.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a pretty decent little hall closet... especially that window - wow! All it needs is a little organizing and sprucing up! Can't wait to see what you do with it!
