Brett has been working really hard to get the closets rebuilt in this house since we moved in. We had all the wire shelving taken out, repainted the closets white and then moved in... with nowhere to hang, fold or place anything! Because of that, the unpacking has been very slow! Brett has never built closet shelving before, but he is very handy and loves that sort of challenge. Plus, it was not realistic financially for us to do it any other way but ourselves. Apparently built-in closets are VERY expensive! So far, Brett has put shelving in the upstairs linen closet, built a mini "mud-room" out of our hall closet and finished a fantastic master closet for us to finally unpack into! Remaining to be built - all three kids' closets.
We had a standard coat closet in the entry hall and no mudroom (which we had in our previous house). With three kids I knew we needed some sort of mud-room solution for all our shoes, bags, jackets, etc. We decided to turn the coat closet into a mini mud-room since we had no option of putting a real mudroom in this house. It is much smaller than our last one, but functions great, and you can close the door on it and not have to see all that clutter. Here it is:
And the master closet is so nice! After months of living out of piles and boxes it feels so luxurious to hang things up!

A little vanity area for each of us with a mirror will be handy. |
Thank you, Brett! On to the next one... :)
