Now, I love me a walk-in closet. I shared a house before I moved into my present apartment, and while the house was nicely spacious, my actual private space was TINY. Of course, you fill the space you've got, but I went a wee bit farther. Rather than using the alcove in the bedroom as a place for a reading desk and chair, like my friend who lived down the hall, I fit my queen-sized bed into the alcove (making that thing is a pain, but it fits) and turned the rest of the space into a closet. There are shelves for my shoes, hanging racks for cardigans, shirts, and skirts, and my sweaters and dresses go inside the original closet space. It's pretty great, if I might say.
So...with all that, I love the idea of turning extra space in your apartment into a fabulous closet. But paying two hundred grand for it? Seems a bit nutso. Of course, I don't have that kind of money to begin with, and if I did, maybe I'd spend it on my dream closet. But I still think I'd be more inclined toward DIY and picking up random bits at garage sales in order to turn my closet into something a bit more me.
Still, pretty dreamy inspiration, isn't it?

I found your blog through the shoeper shoe challenge, and I hope I don't mind if I follow it - it's always nice to meet people with the same interests :)
ReplyDeleteI have to say, this is an amazing closet! I'd love it have it. But I can't say I'd like to spend that much on an actual closet... I'd rather spend it on more clothes & shoes!
Sara - thanks for following! I'm still adjusting to actually updating the blog. Urgh. I agree with you re: the closet. I like my clothes, but I think I'd rather spend that money on more of them. Or fancier shoes. (Or a car - heh).
