New Closet

We have finally tackled another house project.  This time it was the closet in our main bedroom.  Not all home improvement projects are awe inspiring.  They aren't all new kitchens or living rooms.  Sometimes they are just boring small corners in a room.

 Here's the before:

There was a lot of wasted space.  The shelves on the left side of the closet were pretty useless mainly because they were so small.  You could put just a handful of folded up shirts or pants on them.  And it wasn't exactly installed well.  One support bracket in the middle of the shelf across the back.  The back shelf also consisted of two cut shelves with a joiner bracket.  The shelves on the left were also supported with what can only be described as a cheap stripper pole.  So....just not good.  It's like they threw it together quickly as a fix for something.  

And now the after.

Same type of shelving as before, but we wrapped the shelves around the top.  It utilizes what little space the closet offers.  We also added a second horizontal bar on the left side of the space.  A fresh coat of white paint made the closet brighter as well.  This could have been done over the fall or winter, but we were just too busy.  Plus, spring time kind of feels like the right time to do home improvement things for some reason.
