    I just found you because of the Clutterbug Style quiz & am LOVING this video because I have the same kind of closet & I’m stuck on how to organize it. THEN, I see you wearing some overalls my mom & I designed and I’m dead!!! Love it sooooo much. Looks great!

    I know this is silly but one of my favorite things about this video is seeing you and your hubby in PJs while working on the project. It's so relatable 😚 we just love watching your content and the closet turned out beautifully!

    You did an amazing job of building this system to fit your closet. You really maximized the space. You could also put shelves over your hanging clothes to store off season items!

    I used ikea pax to turn my guest room into a walk in closet, dressing room, and guest room. It was the best thing I ever did in my 110 year old house. It also means that my hubby has the closet in our bedroom to himself. I even made a vanity out of pax. I have most of them behind floor to ceiling velvet curtains from ikea. I do have one cabinet with doors that has pull out selves to hold my shoes. I do have two banks of their drawers and love them.

    This is by far my favorite video. I didn’t know about the ikea program and the plugs for the cabinets. Also the crown molding takes it to the next level. Thanks now I have to get to work

    My husband and I for years didn't have a closet organizer. We aren't big clothes people. Very minimal and have a capsule wardrobe. We finally got a simple organizer for $200, what a difference. One day we will add drawers...one day. Very happy with an organizer. Even if it's a simple home depot box set.

    I’ve easily looked at over 50 closet makeover videos and this one was my favorite! I had no idea about the plugs for the holes in the adjustable shelving! It looks amazing and I can’t wait to DIY mine! :)

    I just spent Oct through Dec renovating my walk in closet with Pax system. It was truly a labor of love. Tons of work but sooo worth it in the end. Watching this was fun. Yes you gotta watch those dowels - I may or may not have had to rebuild a drawer or two 😗♥️

  • @Beruthiel45

    Great job! Our walk in is a square shape with a high window so it restricts the possibilities. I'm quite green with envy now. 😊 We took off our door too, as it was completely useless other than to block half one side of the closet when opened. We installed a pretty curtain rod above the door opening and hung a room darkening floor length curtain, which is a lot better. If I had my druthers I'd eliminate the window too and put in more shelves. Maybe one day... 😉

  • @kathykirk7006
    @kathykirk7006 3 роки тому

    You should add over the door shoe organizers on the walls on the sides. Looks great

  • @007linkstar
    @007linkstar 3 роки тому

    If you want to make it look even more custom made, it's nice to add some wallpaper to the back of the closets. That way to hide the "seam" it has from coming folded in a box. A nice wallpaper with some texture would look luxurious!

  • @aevan8tor
    @aevan8tor 3 роки тому

    The elvarli system there is also really nice and a little less expensive! Not as many options but it can be better for taller closets too. Yours looks like a dream!

  • @KimsSouthernSanctuary

  • @debrap947

    Ikea furniture has helped us so much to stretch our storage space in our 1000 sq ft snowbird condo. We were able to use so much vertical space with tall cabinets and stacking drawer units. We recently were able to fit 2 Billy cabinets in our dining area by stacking to give us extra pantry space. FYI ALWAYS attach cabinets to the wall even if you don't have little ones.

    I just came downstairs to complete my workout and eat breakfast and what a pleasant surprise! My hubby cleaned and re-organized his closet yesterday, and I just started my own this morning. I used Ikea also, however, I repurpose things from my old office, like bookshelves and their floating draws. Thank you great motivational video!

    You really maximized on the space and I do agree having solids drawer fronts looks sharper. Have you co side red putting your drapery on the outside of the closet, even opened instead of on the inside?

    Could you add a large mirror on the wall next to your hanging clothes? Plus shelves over the top of both hanging areas for extra baskets - maybe the seagrass baskets could be moved there.

      Was anyone else concerned after seeing that they blocked off their attack access? You'd have to be super tiny to squeeze in the space left. Even if you think you'll never have to go up there. Never say never, and it could end up a real pain to deal with in the future.

    You two did a great job, definitely looks better and more asthetic. I love Ikea, however, there is one thing I don't care for with this system__the gaps between the drawers and unit. That would drive me crazy, knowing I spent that much money and effort to organize everything only to find dust on my clean clothes. 😏💖🙌🙌🙌😺
