I’ve handed the primary massive hurdle on this walk-in closet challenge. The essential construct is completed! I completed up at 11:00pm final evening, and y’all, I’m so drained. 😀 I obtained all the construct completed, after which obtained a couple of quarter of the best way completed with protecting all the nail holes and screw holes with wooden filler. So my plan is to complete that up at present, after which begin on the trim and molding tomorrow!
So let me present you the way it appears to this point. Right here’s the view from the lobby simply outdoors the doorway of the closet.
You’ve already seen a lot of the proper aspect of the room, however it’s now fully constructed out. I’m nonetheless going to take away that shelf on the middle part the place the wallpaper and mirror will go, and I’m going to switch that with a glass shelf. I’m nonetheless understanding the design particulars of that part.
Once more, this aspect is nearly all shelf storage, except the world below the middle shelf the place I’ll retailer my necklaces. I’m nonetheless understanding these particulars as properly.
The left part shall be for purses and garments that I need to retailer folded. The middle part would be the fairly part with the wallpaper, mirror, sconces, glass-top drawer for earrings and rings, necklace bar, and one other shelf. I’ll add that final shelf on the backside as soon as I get the small print of the earring and necklace storage labored out. And the appropriate part shall be shoe storage.
And the cupboard on the door wall shall be for issues that I would like saved in a closed cupboard behind a cupboard door.
On the left aspect of the room, I’ve the dryer cupboard by the window. The subsequent part may have one hanging bar for attire, skirts, and pants. The middle part may have two hanging bars for shirts — one for lengthy sleeve and one for brief sleeve.
After which the part on the left may have one hanging bar for miscellaneous gadgets with the garments hampers on the backside.
After which I’ve one other cupboard on that aspect that may have a door on it for gadgets I would like saved in a closed cupboard.
You’ll discover that I did must make one small change. I had initially deliberate to have the step ladder saved in a slot subsequent to the garments hampers like this…
However evidently, I learn the scale of the step ladder unsuitable as a result of it gained’t match there. I do know I misplaced an inch of depth on these cupboards after I needed to make the design change in how I constructed them, however the ladder stands out way over an inch.
So I needed to pivot fairly rapidly and discover a answer. I made a decision to make the underside two cabinets in the long run cupboard (the one that may have a door on it) shallower than the opposite three in order that I can retailer the step ladder in that cupboard.
So the step ladder will sit simply inside that cupboard in entrance of these two cabinets.
I used to be disenchanted at first, however after I obtained over my disappointment, I noticed that it really is likely to be handier having it saved in that cupboard.
And right here’s the view wanting again in direction of the doorway.
That is positively the most important construct I’ve ever achieved in my life, and I’m so excited that this half is completed! I’ve a complete lot of wooden filling, sanding, and caulking in my close to future (as in, at present), however even when I don’t get completed with all of that at present, I shall be beginning on the trim and molding tomorrow. I solely have a lot endurance, and it’s sporting fairly skinny proper now. I have to see some fairly stuff very quickly! 😀
