Closet Project

The people who built and lived in this old house before us apparently did not have a lot of clothes.  There are 3 bedrooms in this house.  The master bedroom closet isn't even the largest one and Robbie's closet is like a small coat closet.  Several years ago Bob made and installed new shelves in my closet and the one in Robbie's room for better storage and organization.  The closet he uses in the guest room is the largest but the space has never been utilized in a good way. 

Above and below, the guest room closet (which is the biggest in the house).  We had already taken down the one shelf and the bar and I painted it all white. 

Bob spent several hours one weekend afternoon recently designing then cutting wood to make custom shelves. 

These shelves are for shoes, sweaters and jeans.  He fit 2-3 pairs of shoes per shelf and several sweaters and jeans. He has a lot of clothes because I like to shop for him.  My favorite brand to buy him is Chaps from Kohl's. 

Over to the right side of the closet is a little nook where he installed shelves to hang pants and dress shirts. He can also fit his laundry basket in there because I hate to see a basket of dirty laundry sitting out in a room.  Yuck!

The finished product!  Now it's completely full of clothes covering every inch of the hanging areas and shelves but it looks so much better than it used to.
