The Month of Love

Love is…

having you own space. . .

for clothes that is! I am about to air out James’s dirty little secret. You wouldn’t know this unless you have even been over our house and then I show it off like it is the craziest thing ever. He was until recently using both our closet and the guest closet to store his clothes! Shocker I know a man who has more clothes than his wife. I guess I can’t complain. Most women say they can’t ever get their husband to go shopping. Me on the other hand married my favorite shopping partner.

However after me giving him tons of positive encouragement aka nagging, he agreed to do so. So we ripped out the old one wooded shelf and bar, you can tell where it was due to the ugly antique white spot,

 

Painted it blue and used it as a backdrop

 

The we finally got down to business…

Since the closet was so deep on the sides we  cut down the old shelf to fabricate a simple shelving system on each side of the closet. Here we store our shoes and jeans.

James built a pretty awesome trouser rack that pulls out on his side…however I apparently did not take a photo of that so I have to upload one soon…

That was our major project of the month, it may not seem like alot but we spent almost every weekend organizing it and putting it together. We used metal  gray wire racks from home depot. The gray was a little bit more expensive but we perfered that color over the usual white.

So what do you think? Is the gray doing it for you? Or is the idea of fitting all your clothes in one closet sound impossible? Please share your thoughts!
