more closet

Posted on November 25, 2011 by grasie

There are a lot of changes going on in the Mercedes/Fahey household. All good things though, which is fantastic. First off, we’re moving! Only about a mile away from where we are now, but never the less…moving. In an attempt to save and buy a home in a couple of years, we are moving from our lovely 2 bedroom house to an adorable but modest 1 bedroom apartment. The good news? We’ll be paying half the rent and still be in the same neighborhood! The bad news? Less space, specifically…less closet space. But I’m up for the challenge! Stay tuned for DIY and apartment posts to take you on our journey of making our new apartment feel like a home. First up…stylish solutions to create more closet space.

    Really love the idea of using a clothing rack in a room. Why not display my pretty clothes? They can double as art.

    love the idea, but what are some good show solutions?

      i think you meant “shoe” here… display your nicest shoes like you would your nicest dresses. you can use a book shelf like this one http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40047675/ or just decorate a simple shoe rack :)

    I had to build extra closet space for myself in my last apartment. I used super cute extra long curtains from Ikea in one corner and had a hanging rack. Worked like a charm, plus was a cute splash of pattern in my decor. :)
