    It’s been some time since I’ve had a chance to watch your videos. I can finally watch some again as I tackle my own projects. And as always your videos are so amazing. Thank you. ❤

    That's a good sized closet, makes so much more sense to have it be part of the bedroom.

    A masterful touch of creating the thing we all crave in our homes, "more storage". Love the step by step detailed explanation. DIY Princess

    Use an old wood threshold to cover the gap in the flooring. Or make your own. Paint or stain it to your liking.

    Great project, and video/editing! Others have suggested a wood threshold, but if you want to keep it carpeted, I can't tell from the video, but it looks pretty similar in both rooms. I would steal a piece from an out-of-the-way corner of the closet, back where the ceiling is the shortest, and using a couple strips of iron-on carpet tape and a scrap of padding, blend it in. If needed, a runner-type rug running throught he doorway would hide any inconsistencies.

      I was wondering if there was a way I could patch in carpet, thanks for the ideas!

    Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing. As for the flooring, I suggest replacing the flooring in the closet up to the existing flooring in the bedroom. Or, if you are not worried about it, custom mill a wood threshold transition strip between the two spaces.

    RIP UP THE CARPET IN THE CLOSET AND INSTALL VINYL PLANKING, MAKE THAT TRANSITION OFF THE CARPET EDGE FROM THE BEDROOM.

    A marble or tile threshold might look nice.

    I'd put laminate flooring throughout the closet but that's just me. You could put a wooden threshold in.

    Excellent work as usual. How did you know where the power outlet cables were before cutting into the wall?

    • @WelcometotheWoodsBlog
      @WelcometotheWoodsBlog  2 місяці тому +5

      I could tell they weren’t run on the right towards exterior wall because there’s no electricity there, so I knew they had to be coming from the left. When I cut into the drywall on that side I was super careful to only go as deep as the drywall thickness so I didn’t nick a wire!

  • @johnleewright345

    if you are putting any built ins in that closet, you can cut a piece of the carpet from that area and patch it.

    Try patching the floor by using a piece of wood threshold.

    Maybe you don't want carpet in the closet. So you could cover the exposed gap with whatever flooring you choose for the closet.

    If you have a closet within the same carpet in it, you could steal a piece from the back of it and patch it in.

    Have you worked with a sawzall?

    • @WelcometotheWoodsBlog
      @WelcometotheWoodsBlog  2 місяці тому +1

      Yes, but I dislike how they give rough cuts and often make a mess of things. Here I was cutting near electrical wire and doing some precise cutting to try to reuse materials so that's why I didn't use a reciprocating saw.

  • @robertjames-life4768
    @robertjames-life4768 2 місяці тому

    Seems like a sawzall would be easier and less dusty.

      It would’ve been faster, but I dislike how they give rough cuts and often make a mess of things. Here I was cutting near electrical wire and doing some precise cutting to try to reuse materials so that's why I didn't use a reciprocating saw.

      I get it on the drywall side but the lathe and plaster it would’ve helped. I realize you are featuring a product. 😉
