Another closet makeover? Well your girl needed it to say the least. I started including a budget breakdown which you can see by opening up the description! I will be including this in all videos moving forward. Happy Thursday! I will see you guys soon for another one xx.
@@gulserocak In my room makeover video I will just because I have family and friends staying there from now until that video goes live so want to ensure they are all safe xx.
I have to say, I’ve been watching from the very beginning and I’m so glad that you worked on this channel for yourself. I remember you mentioning in a video a long time ago that you could’ve easily kicked back and enjoyed the life you had with him but you wanted something of your own and I know that is definitely playing a big part in how you’re able to bounce back the way that you have.
I genuinely needed this video because I am in the process of moving back home after my dad passed away to take care of my mom (they are my grandparents since my actual parents passed when I was an infant) and I’m reorganizing my closet. Like you, I feel like everything is a mess in my life right now. I have watched so many of your videos, but from the last one to now, this new “Rachel” is also letting me know that it is okay to have a breakdown or 2, as long as we keep moving forward and giving gratitude to being alive and the lessons that come with loss. You are strong, beautiful and inspiring so please never forget that. Lysm!💖
Rachel I’m so happy for you, I know it’s hard to handle a broke up but seriously you are much better now. I don’t know, call me crazy but I think you were giving more than what you were receiving in that relationship. Girl you are amazing 😘
I just wanna say that you’ve inspired me so much to gain more knowledge about fixing up my future home. I’m so happy I found your channel. Thank you for these videos💕
Thank you so much for documenting everything and teaching us along the way. You are honest and genuine. I think I speak for everyone when I say we appreciate you and the light you bring on your channel! God bless and thank you again. We love you!!
hi Rachel before watching this video I just want to send you and your loved ones some love during this time.2020 has been a horrible year and with losing my grandpa a few days ago, your videos are bringing me so much joy and distracting me because I plan on making over my own room. Thank you for all your hard work and please don't forget to check in with yourself and your mental health. Take care
1:48 I feel ya!! currently working on a pergola, a balcony swing, planking my wall with cork strips behind it and learning to place forward sockets to go over the wood, painting my bedroom wall, redoing my closet, updating my bathroom and a general overhaul of the bedroom.
I wouldn’t do anything different. I love how you are making use of every small inch you have instead of feeling the need to live so large. This was perfect.
Long time lurker, first time commenter! Rachel, you’re an inspiration. I’ve been watching your videos for a while now, but was living with my dad while I dealt with some health issues, so didn’t have a space to makeover. Unfortunately, my dad died unexpectedly in January and I’ve inherited the house, which I’ve had intensely mixed emotions about. He’d been retired two years and had started trying to makeover the house into his dream space, and this video has been like a spark of hope and inspiration I needed to start making this place into a dream home he’d have been proud of. Thank you so much. Sending you support/love/strength from the UK for your new chapter. You’re just going to go from strength to strength - you’ve got this!
I loved this video. Looks amazing Rachel and we are so proud of you. I can only imagine how difficult the last few months have been for you and you seem to be resistant. Remember that we are here for you, regards of what projects you do or don't decide to post.
I love how transparent you are with your viewers and open you are about how you’re experiencing life and what you’re overcoming. Your DIYs keep me motivated to continue with new, larger projects! Good luck with adjusting to this life change, we’re here to support you and you’re killing it (and you never stopped being badass)!!!!
This is friggin' STELLAR. I'm blown away by that shoe storage build!! Any chance you'd be willing to share your design process in a separate video? I'd love to see how you go from thought bubble to drawn design to implementation. I always admire your work so much!!
I have a closet in one of the rooms that look just about that size, and I've been scratching my head over how I'm gonna make it more organized. This video is my answer!
Im here for this closet!!!!! I love how you used every inch of space. So inspiring. My closet is legit half the size of your current one. TINY!!!!! 🤯🤯🤯. Old houses have crap closet storage! Also..... OBSESSED with every pair of Nikes in your you own, and all your nike gear in general! Get it Rachel!
When you do these type of makeovers can show show how functional things are? for example how you put stuff on the back wall like is it easy to access or do you have to move much to get it.I don't know if it makes sense
Unfortunately I'm not going to break down functionality all the time because I figured people can fill in the blanks/assess and build for their own needs. The bags hanging behind my dressier clothes on the left hand side are clothes I'm not grabbing for because COVID/quarantine and those are my nicer purses I would pair (sitting behind) with it by simply scooting the hangers over and grabbing. Necklaces are in easy reach as you can tell in the video and the pants again to get to them - scoot the hangers over.
The fact that u have the motivation and determination to get this stuff done while going thru a break up is seriously inspirational. Even just your videos themself are inspirational
I’m literally going through the same thing with my breakup and moving. It’s honestly been so crazy! You’re doing a lot better than me! That’s what keeps me going! 💜
I had to remove some carpet recently (after a flood... at least the glue wasn't glueing anymore) and used your technique of cutting it in bits to roll it... LIFE-SAVING!! And then I had to remove the glue leftover on the floor... so much work
I love a good small closet makeover! You killed it, like always. I love how made your laundry cart fit perfectly, and the spacing of the hangers of course lol. I enjoy having my closet to "retail standards" as well, hehe. Can't wait to see the office!!
girl you are an amazing human and you live, love and learn... FOLLOW YOUR HEART and your guts when it comes to relationships and life in gral... wish you the best and keep on diying your heart off... now show them what a girl with a broken heart and some power tools can do. rooting for you..
Best diy’er- I’m learning so much. I get overwhelmed with figuring out how to make it all come together when I tackle a project. You walk me through the steps - my 🧠 thanks you.
I love it! Have been looking at your videos lately and I give u props, not only for your creativity but your actually doing all the cutting, modifying and and drilling yourself. It’s 6 am and you got me feeling like bob the builder over here. I want to do something just like this now!!!😊
Love that you just took away the doors!! Ive been trying to keep everything in its place and that def will make you not want a ¨pile of clothes chair¨ in the corner of your room! Love the small shelves too! Holly is a true hero and friend! But having you there helping to decorate her place is a win win for you both :)
The shoe organization is genius! All mine are in tubs at the moment with my “everyday” shoes hanging out on my closet floor. I really liked the white too, classic but satisfying!
I just stumbled across your videos and I just have to say girl to girl you are SO inspirational! I love that you have all the tools and actually know how to use them and you make it look so easy! It just makes it feel more doable for me then just watching the 8 millionth guy do it.

This closet is so nice, the shoe storage is just so cute and I totally agree with the vacuum pack tips, it really does save up tons of space. As always, love the diy and keep thriving Rachel
I admire your positive outlook since your life has shifted. I wish you nothing but great things! And the closet makeover is awesome. I can use some of your organization ideas for mine.
It's gorgeous. I laughed when you mentioned heavy coats..thinking...she's in So Cal, does she even own any heavy coats LOL. I had to buy one when I moved to Georgia. Looking forward to the office makeover. I'm so glad you didn't let your break up completely stall you.
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz totally...m from India and its not common here but m so inspired that I wanna do exactly what u do. Been through same shit and u give me inspiration...luv luv luv
I absolutely love the shelving up top. You’ve inspired me to use that space because it is soooo wasted and I have a mini square closet that has a wasted corner. I need comer shelving/storage ideas that will take it up to the ceiling.
I love the shelf for the work cloths and how it doubles as s laundry basket barrier-esp since its on wheels. I struggle with noth of those things. (Not knowing where to store my work cloths and hating my clean cliths touching the laundry basket of dirties.) Great ideas and beautiful execution. PS i just bought the same mitre saw and was so excited when I saw you using it!
Great makeover project as always ❣️ Hmm btw sorry if this out of context or a bit rude, I'm just curious, so you stays at Holly's place at this moment? I know you moved out from that house just wonder where do you live now. 😅
Great job! You rock "tool sister". Add one more shelf near the floor to get those sweatshirts off the floor. Just a board with small feet would work as well. You're a survivor and a warrior woman. Just keep walking!
Love love love you design here esp the shoe shelves. I love how you include the practicality of your design and how you are able to maximize you closet space. So much inspo.
Your videos make me want to completely redo my home! This closet makeover is pushing me to do it since I have so much wasted space in the top that I cannot use. This was just the inspo that I needed! You're amazing at what you do! Keep it up Rachel!!
NOT THAT IT MATTERS. I'm sorry about your breakup. Your videos are truly motivational and you are a strong independent woman and this channel proves it. I'm one of the NEAR HALF A MILLION subscribers that follow you because you are an educator and a fierce DYI-er that we all need in our lives.
Your videos are really just so empowering... I've been watching your videos for a while now and I'm always in awe with your creativity and not to mention your patience. More love in your next chapter ❤️❤️❤️
it feels silly to say this as a stranger from simply watching your videos and only knowing a small portion of your life through this - but you seem like such a strong and wonderfully independent woman! I am so sad that your life changed so drastically but hopefully for the better! You got this with figuring out your life and I am looking forward to watching the future content you did fully for yourself. All strength to you!
This is the most beautiful small closet I have ever seen and I know that creativity is known when you got small spaces and you promise yourself that this is the only thing I will use and whatever I have got I will only use that.loved your closet👍🏼
I came across your videos about a year ago and you're such a mentor to me. I love that you're just doing what you need to do to get through this and i am so proud of what you have done! I know you will have more projects and challenges to get through but girl you got this. go from a break down to breaking it down
Fantastic wardrobe utilising all the space! You're inspiring me to declutter & redo as my wardrobe as it's currently not working for me!! The dowl & wood shelving color is too close but doesn't match.. have you though about white washing the shelf? Also, have you got a walk through of your tools? I'm keen to set myself up!! Thanks Rachel, great ideas & standard as per your usual. Thanks for continuing & for your honesty xxx take care 😘😘
The care you put into these videos, and the projects! I was wondering what drywall plugs you used and was like, no way is she going to have listed those in the description but let's check, and lo and behold hahaha THANK YOU. My heart goes out to you, and not just because of the plugs!
I love this! It’s super inspiring and I love that you show every detail because I have always wanted to know how to do this kind of stuff with tools and my own imagination, and you explain everything very well! You should do classes to teach us! I don’t know if you do that already but you are super good at explaining! I think the only thing I would do different is I wouldn’t personally put my dirty clothes hamper in the closet because i go through so much clothes and mine would get messy fast!
Love this! You’re my inspiration for starting my own new chapter and starting my own DIY/makeover channel. Thank you for always being honest while still maintaining your content. You have that perfect balance of personal and keeping to your subject. Love you girl. Stay strong ❤️❤️❤️
I love this look, and I wish I could enact all of it in my own closet. Unfortunately, I have a small closet with an even smaller doorway that I can't alter, and it makes the sides almost too deep to reach everything. However, in looking at this, I think I might be able to add shelves at the bottom the way you did which would be great to store some of my bulkier items and I'm excited to try that.
Omg you and XO Macenna are the reason I bought my first circular saw!!! This is such a great makeover. Thank you for working through your life and sharing whatever you want to with us. You bring us so much joy! ❤️❤️❤️
Love your practical and style makeovers. Also love the way you work your channel ie watching your makeovers with your voice over and cool music as opposed to talking to the screen for ages and then showing the makeover. Thank you!!!
Love this and it is gives me something to think about for my sons closet. I like the idea of using the flanges in the back but worry how accessible they will be by having to move the hanging clothes in front. Giving it some thought.
Love your work ive shared with family n cousins lol i have alot about fifty family members ...my moms mom. Had ten child r en so i share great ideas....there all most all grown im the oldest of the girls n im 56....GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY LOVE YA
I love your work so much Rachel! I know that nothing breaks like a heart but, Rachel, it wasn't meant to be. Feel it to heal it and learn from all of your experiences in your life. You are an independent woman loved by your mini-human, family, friends, viwers, that are here to support you no matter what! Keep your head up babygirl, everything will be ok and life will give you everything you need to be happy!
I think you are truly amazing Rachel! I hope you're feeling a bit stronger, I know it's shit at the moment but you will OK. Hope its OK to say that. I love how you design and DIY, a real inspiration, looking forward to seeing your blog. Sending you love from the UK ❤️
Woooow Rachel, you maximised everything!!!! You rocked this DIY. It is interesting also to see how to style small spaces! I painted the 3 of the 4 walls of my kitchen black, everyone thought that I was completely crazy... I was. Thinking about your favourite colour... It ended up great 😉 Sara Nena DIY
Gorgeous job woman! If I can humbly suggest to add some lighting like you did to the mini human's closet..... i think it would really open it up even more! And let's face it who doesn't like the little extra touch that lighting provides ?! But all in all great job! Hope you're having a great day🧡
After having to downsize from a five-bed, three-story house to a one single bed apartment after my divorce, this video gives me all the happy! Make that space yours, girl! It's such fresh energy to start over and although a huge struggle, you will come out dancing. Just give it time xx
I hope you are doing well and healing in your own good time. I recently subscribed to your channel and have been binge watching all your videos. You are a total inspiration to me and have given me a shot of confidence that maybe, just maybe I can do it too at my age (62+) Thank you and take care of your emotional and physical health
Rachel you are such a blessing. My fiancé was supposed to be here in August but now it's looking like after December 😥 we had our whole wedding planned. So your videos are helping me to gain ideas for my apartment in August! So grateful for you!!
I am hoping to purchase my first apartment soon. So your video ls have been a blessing to me. Don't know how I'm handle all those power tools but we got this. Your closet is a great inspiration, but I have some many bags and shoes... Omg! I think I might to Mary Kondo myself before the move. 😬 You are an inspiration. CHEERS TO WOMAN POWER!
WOW Rachel I can't believe how much stuff you were able to put in that closet once you customised it! It's so pretty too! I live in a rental so not sure how much of this DIY I could get away with but you sure are inspiring!😁 Plus, let me just say that I SO look forward to your videos because I love your style & you make everything seem so doable. I am so proud of how you keep GOING STRONG 💪 thru your breakup & I'm sure it's really very hard but I for 1 appreciate your videos while you "Build thru the Breakup"👍
*I love how you did this!!!!* 👌😍😍 I just would've added shelf liner under the shoes or had an Ikea shoe cabinet in the room itself. I don't have much though and still love what you did. My heart goes out to you. I loved the other closet as well ♥️
You're always so inspiring! You don't give up and just keep trying, and that's just amazing! Loved this makeover and all the practical tips. 💕 Makes me think just one of these days I'll be able to try my own projects!
I appreciate the little editing moment so much like when you dub yourself removing both of the closet doors at the same time. Makes me smile every time because you care about both of these mediums 🥰🥰
You are such an inspiration, really. I genuinely look up to you and the fact that you are sharing a part of your life like this is truly amazing. I’m 17 and have no idea what to do with my life and watching you has really helped me. Lots of love ❤️ PS: I apologize for any spelling mistakes I made, english is not my native language.
Rachel this just what i needed. I removed the mirrored closet doors off since they kept coming off the tracks. My closet is configured similarly and I dont want to spend crazy money on custom closet organization system.
I don't know what caused your break up, frankly it's none of my business. However I do know the pain of a break up, I'm very proud of you for 'walking on', with your friends, family and channel. You do You! I love your monologue-ing voice overs.... the way you 'put' everything is not overly wordy, but like a little peek into your thought processes, which helps people understand where you're coming from and how to apply your concepts to their own DIY's.
I first found your videos when I was going through a big breakup and had to move out of an ex's place that I had put blood sweat and tears in, only to start all over. Your videos helped me a lot as I figured out where I wanted to take my life during that time. Thank you for your authenticity as you're moving through this period of your time - but I know you're going to come out of it with something amazing.
i’m sorry about your break up. i know that’s hard especially during these times. i hope you’re taking time for you. super excited you’re sharing your building through the breakup with us. i’m very excited to see how you recreate your office space. sending air hugs your way. ♥️
It’s quite wonderful watching your new chapter. I’m very excited to see your new projects as this one seems to be a new style from before, a bit lighter in design tone and seems light and refreshing.
Haha I feel you on the break out. My husband and I just moved into our new space during the pandemic and it needed ALOT of work. But were getting it done! All on a budget and MANY home depot visits...
Another closet makeover? Well your girl needed it to say the least. I started including a budget breakdown which you can see by opening up the description! I will be including this in all videos moving forward. Happy Thursday! I will see you guys soon for another one xx.
Omg i love your videos !!
Hi Rach, can you put a link to the alrbnb you use for inspo?
@@gulserocak In my room makeover video I will just because I have family and friends staying there from now until that video goes live so want to ensure they are all safe xx.
Best wishes to you Rachel as you move forward. I just love you and your channel.
Clever shoe shelves !!
i rly liked how her DIYs are always so practical rather than simply making them 'aesthetic' looking
That's my goal!
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz right I hate when people just do for looks how about real life. Do have ideas for kids toy storage for kids bedrooms?
Agreed, that’s why she’s the best!
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz the problem with me is that even though i have a nice sized closet, i can only reach half of it because im 4'11 🙃

Ahhhhh seeing you comment on this channel I have JUST discovered is like spotting a celeb at a restaurant you like! ❤️
Lol 😂 yeah I’m sure he gets a lot of inspiration form Rachel! She is such a boss!
I love you.
I have to say, I’ve been watching from the very beginning and I’m so glad that you worked on this channel for yourself.

The shoe shelves are genius! We have a high ceiling in our closet, totally going to make these to use the space! Thanks for the inspiration!
Hell yeah!
This is why we need more content creator like her. While her diy is asthestic, it's way more on the practical side so bravo!
I appreciate that xx.

Hmm btw sorry if this out of context or a bit rude, I'm just curious, so you stays at Holly's place at this moment? I know you moved out from that house just wonder where do you live now. 😅
Great job! You rock "tool sister". Add one more shelf near the floor to get those sweatshirts off the floor. Just a board with small feet would work as well. You're a survivor and a warrior woman. Just keep walking!
🖤🖤🖤
I LOVE YOU, RACHEL METZ!! My ALL time fave UA-camr.
You are way too kind!
Love love love you design here esp the shoe shelves. I love how you include the practicality of your design and how you are able to maximize you closet space. So much inspo.
My heart swells every time I watch you. Your creativity and skill level are so inspiring. You da BOSS!💞
Wow thank you 😩🖤.
Your videos make me want to completely redo my home! This closet makeover is pushing me to do it since I have so much wasted space in the top that I cannot use. This was just the inspo that I needed! You're amazing at what you do! Keep it up Rachel!!
Hi Rachel! I hope you’re doing better ❤️
Sending you lots of love :))
Thank you!
NOT THAT IT MATTERS. I'm sorry about your breakup. Your videos are truly motivational and you are a strong independent woman and this channel proves it. I'm one of the NEAR HALF A MILLION subscribers that follow you because you are an educator and a fierce DYI-er that we all need in our lives.
luv ur videos! you were my inspiration to do interior design so thank you!!!!!!
Ah yay!
I adore the fact that her closet has a boutique feel to it and I love it!! 💗
Your videos are really just so empowering... I've been watching your videos for a while now and I'm always in awe with your creativity and not to mention your patience. More love in your next chapter ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much Joe!
it feels silly to say this as a stranger from simply watching your videos and only knowing a small portion of your life through this - but you seem like such a strong and wonderfully independent woman! I am so sad that your life changed so drastically but hopefully for the better! You got this with figuring out your life and I am looking forward to watching the future content you did fully for yourself. All strength to you!
Liked this video for the “finger spacing” lol 2 years in retail!
This is the most beautiful small closet I have ever seen and I know that creativity is known when you got small spaces and you promise yourself that this is the only thing I will use and whatever I have got I will only use that.loved your closet👍🏼
This is probably the BEST most practical and more sensible small closet makeover I’ve ever seen!!
I came across your videos about a year ago and you're such a mentor to me. I love that you're just doing what you need to do to get through this and i am so proud of what you have done! I know you will have more projects and challenges to get through but girl you got this. go from a break down to breaking it down
Thank you very much - seriously.
Fantastic wardrobe utilising all the space! You're inspiring me to declutter & redo as my wardrobe as it's currently not working for me!!
The dowl & wood shelving color is too close but doesn't match.. have you though about white washing the shelf? Also, have you got a walk through of your tools? I'm keen to set myself up!! Thanks Rachel, great ideas & standard as per your usual. Thanks for continuing & for your honesty xxx take care 😘😘
I liked the wood accent so I won't white wash it. Great feedback!
The care you put into these videos, and the projects! I was wondering what drywall plugs you used and was like, no way is she going to have listed those in the description but let's check, and lo and behold hahaha THANK YOU. My heart goes out to you, and not just because of the plugs!
Thanks for watching and the love!
I love this! It’s super inspiring and I love that you show every detail because I have always wanted to know how to do this kind of stuff with tools and my own imagination, and you explain everything very well! You should do classes to teach us! I don’t know if you do that already but you are super good at explaining! I think the only thing I would do different is I wouldn’t personally put my dirty clothes hamper in the closet because i go through so much clothes and mine would get messy fast!
Love this! You’re my inspiration for starting my own new chapter and starting my own DIY/makeover channel. Thank you for always being honest while still maintaining your content. You have that perfect balance of personal and keeping to your subject. Love you girl. Stay strong ❤️❤️❤️
I love this look, and I wish I could enact all of it in my own closet. Unfortunately, I have a small closet with an even smaller doorway that I can't alter, and it makes the sides almost too deep to reach everything. However, in looking at this, I think I might be able to add shelves at the bottom the way you did which would be great to store some of my bulkier items and I'm excited to try that.
Omg you and XO Macenna are the reason I bought my first circular saw!!! This is such a great makeover. Thank you for working through your life and sharing whatever you want to with us. You bring us so much joy! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the love!
Your tricks for saving space and using the back of the wall is GENIUS. love how the shoe shelves look up top. The light wood and white is *chefs kiss*
Thank you!
Love your practical and style makeovers. Also love the way you work your channel ie watching your makeovers with your voice over and cool music as opposed to talking to the screen for ages and then showing the makeover. Thank you!!!
Love this and it is gives me something to think about for my sons closet. I like the idea of using the flanges in the back but worry how accessible they will be by having to move the hanging clothes in front. Giving it some thought.
Love your work ive shared with family n cousins lol i have alot about fifty family members ...my moms mom. Had ten child r en so i share great ideas....there all most all grown im the oldest of the girls n im 56....GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY LOVE YA
I love your work so much Rachel!
I know that nothing breaks like a heart but, Rachel, it wasn't meant to be. Feel it to heal it and learn from all of your experiences in your life.
You are an independent woman loved by your mini-human, family, friends, viwers, that are here to support you no matter what!
Keep your head up babygirl, everything will be ok and life will give you everything you need to be happy!
Thank you Rita!
I think you are truly amazing Rachel! I hope you're feeling a bit stronger, I know it's shit at the moment but you will OK. Hope its OK to say that. I love how you design and DIY, a real inspiration, looking forward to seeing your blog. Sending you love from the UK ❤️
Woooow Rachel, you maximised everything!!!! You rocked this DIY. It is interesting also to see how to style small spaces!
I painted the 3 of the 4 walls of my kitchen black, everyone thought that I was completely crazy... I was. Thinking about your favourite colour... It ended up great 😉

Thank you!
Gorgeous job woman! If I can humbly suggest to add some lighting like you did to the mini human's closet..... i think it would really open it up even more! And let's face it who doesn't like the little extra touch that lighting provides ?! But all in all great job! Hope you're having a great day🧡
After having to downsize from a five-bed, three-story house to a one single bed apartment after my divorce, this video gives me all the happy! Make that space yours, girl! It's such fresh energy to start over and although a huge struggle, you will come out dancing. Just give it time xx
You guys help me through!
I hope you are doing well and healing in your own good time. I recently subscribed to your channel and have been binge watching all your videos. You are a total inspiration to me and have given me a shot of confidence that maybe, just maybe I can do it too at my age (62+)
Thank you and take care of your emotional and physical health
Thank you so much!
Rachel you are such a blessing. My fiancé was supposed to be here in August but now it's looking like after December 😥 we had our whole wedding planned. So your videos are helping me to gain ideas for my apartment in August! So grateful for you!!
Sending you my love.
when she said “i’m OBSESSED!” girl i felt that, i actually lovveeee this 😍
I am hoping to purchase my first apartment soon. So your video ls have been a blessing to me. Don't know how I'm handle all those power tools but we got this. Your closet is a great inspiration, but I have some many bags and shoes... Omg! I think I might to Mary Kondo myself before the move. 😬
You are an inspiration. CHEERS TO WOMAN POWER!
WOW Rachel I can't believe how much stuff you were able to put in that closet once you customised it! It's so pretty too! I live in a rental so not sure how much of this DIY I could get away with but you sure are inspiring!😁 Plus, let me just say that I SO look forward to your videos because I love your style & you make everything seem so doable. I am so proud of how you keep GOING STRONG 💪 thru your breakup & I'm sure it's really very hard but I for 1 appreciate your videos while you "Build thru the Breakup"👍
*I love how you did this!!!!* 👌😍😍 I just would've added shelf liner under the shoes or had an Ikea shoe cabinet in the room itself. I don't have much though and still love what you did. My heart goes out to you. I loved the other closet as well ♥️
You're always so inspiring! You don't give up and just keep trying, and that's just amazing! Loved this makeover and all the practical tips. 💕 Makes me think just one of these days I'll be able to try my own projects!
You definitely can!
I appreciate the little editing moment so much like when you dub yourself removing both of the closet doors at the same time. Makes me smile every time because you care about both of these mediums 🥰🥰
🖤
You are such an inspiration, really. I genuinely look up to you and the fact that you are sharing a part of your life like this is truly amazing. I’m 17 and have no idea what to do with my life and watching you has really helped me. Lots of love ❤️ PS: I apologize for any spelling mistakes I made, english is not my native language.
Rachel this just what i needed. I removed the mirrored closet doors off since they kept coming off the tracks. My closet is configured similarly and I dont want to spend crazy money on custom closet organization system.
I don't know what caused your break up, frankly it's none of my business. However I do know the pain of a break up, I'm very proud of you for 'walking on', with your friends, family and channel. You do You!
I love your monologue-ing voice overs.... the way you 'put' everything is not overly wordy, but like a little peek into your thought processes, which helps people understand where you're coming from and how to apply your concepts to their own DIY's.
Great use of space. My husband and I will use these tips to make our closets more functional.
I first found your videos when I was going through a big breakup and had to move out of an ex's place that I had put blood sweat and tears in, only to start all over. Your videos helped me a lot as I figured out where I wanted to take my life during that time. Thank you for your authenticity as you're moving through this period of your time - but I know you're going to come out of it with something amazing.
I hope so! We got this xx.
Tengo un closet de tamaño similar, creí que no se podía hacer nada, pero wow, me has inspirado! Lo amé!! Me encanta tu canal :)
I love how light and airy this is!
I personally love all of your DIY's because they're so practical. I honestly just want to hug you because you're so strong, I am amazed tbh
Thank you Jordan!
i tend to choose storage with a lid. dust, lint, and anything else from falling onto/into what i have stored
Love this! 👏🏻 I have NO storage in my house so it’s time to organize my small closets to make the best of it. Great job girl! 💙
i’m sorry about your break up. i know that’s hard especially during these times. i hope you’re taking time for you. super excited you’re sharing your building through the breakup with us. i’m very excited to see how you recreate your office space. sending air hugs your way. ♥️
Thank you for the love xx.
By far my most favorite closet upgrade!! great job! now my turn to try to make this happen to mine !!
This is perfect! Just bought a new home and my closet is about this size! Thank you for the insp
this is absolutely stunning!! the stacked shelves for your shoes are hella inspiring for a rental space, too!
Appreciate that Katie!
It’s quite wonderful watching your new chapter. I’m very excited to see your new projects as this one seems to be a new style from before, a bit lighter in design tone and seems light and refreshing.
Haha I feel you on the break out. My husband and I just moved into our new space during the pandemic and it needed ALOT of work. But were getting it done! All on a budget and MANY home depot visits...
You got this xx.
So many great ideas to utilise space! Love the idea with the shelf over the wash basket. Just about to do over our wardrobes, so thanks 😊
