My Closet Makeover

For todays post I thought I would share with you my closet makeover.  You see, I have one too many doors in my livingroom- doorway to livingroom, doorway to diningroom, doorway to bedroom, doorway to dressing room/bathroom and then this closet door stuck in the corner.  It really does not serve any purpose.  It's too far away for coats and tucked behind the chair it always looked kind of odd.  

As part of my house renovations, which have been going on for months and months, I decided to get rid of the door and have my carpenter install a built-in cabinet in its place. 


That's the closet right there in the corner.  The room looks good except for that and the ceiling which I still need to get done.


I snapped this picture after Mike ,my carpenter, had left for the day Thursday.  The door is gone now and outfitted with the unpainted cabinet.  A couple more moldings and it was done on Friday.  I'm loving it!


I primed and painted it myself on Saturday.  I usually try to avoid painting at all costs but I just couldn't stand looking at the bare wood and empty shelves all weekend.  And all of a sudden my room feels 10 times bigger.


I couldn't wait to fill up the shelves with pretty things.


  I still might swap out the upper shelf and the middle shelf accessories.  What do you think?


Thanks for reading.  Have a great week!
