I am currently seven months pregnant and the process of turning my beautiful office/guest room into a nursery has begun. Phase one was removing all of my extra clothes, craft, and project storage tubs and all of the other miscellanies things that have been tossed in there from the closet. I'll go into purging of the storage tubs in another post so I can focus on my extra closes that didn't fit into my closest in the master bedroom. My side of the closet only had one bar to hand all of my clothes on and it was starting to bend because of all of the weight. What can I say, I have a LOT of clothes and I love to shop!
To make my closet a little more function we decided to get a premade closet organization system from here. However, because of how our closets are and how the kit was, we had to put it together in a different way than the instructions given. We moved the drawers over more and build an area for my dresses behind the section of the wall between the two closets. Then on the other side, we created four sections to hand clothes, with one section having a shelf. We also kept the original closet shelf to place on top for shoe storage. We also reused the old cubby selves to put additional shoes (I also have a LOT of shoes), belts and scarves inside cubby bins. I used the drawers to store some clutches, purses, along with some sweaters and cardigans. The bottom shelf was the perfect display for my Great Aunt's antique jewelry box. While I used the other shelf to display my favorite perfumes and smaller jewelry boxes, along with a wall mounted jewelry organizer I bought to display all of my beautiful repli-Kate jewelry on.
