One Walk-in Closet, A Gazillion Styles

Thursday, November 9th, 2017

The Hooker Furniture Living Room Yates Ottoman is perfect for HIS walk-in closet.

Great closets are one of the most sought-after pieces in every home. In places where space costs you a leg (e.g. New York City), you need to make wise use of every inch that you pay for. New Yorkers are even willing to pay for tiny, cage-like pieces with a lock for mere safekeeping.

Closets can be turned into space which even serves as a home for people from this state. While this is not what is being suggested, this just says a lot about how walk-in closets are the most amazing utilitarian spaces.

The Minimalist

Luckily for most people, there is no need to turn a closet into their living space. They can just enjoy their homes and, in fact, they even have ample space to spare. It is these spaces that can be converted into a beautiful, simple walk-in closet.

Even a small wardrobe can be turned into a walk-in closet. Keep it classy and classic. This is the perfect organization space for your statement and prized pieces.

A Lady’s Dream

A huge walk-in closet is every lady’s dream. Even large families can share this space. It can be luxurious-looking or it can be low-key. But, as always, it is always a space that can showcase a woman’s shoe or dress collection.

Those clothes in a storage unit can be transferred for good inside the walk-in closet. If you’re feeling it, you can even add a dress form mannequin to complete the room.

A DIY Project

Here are some steps that you can make a space become a walk-in closet –

  • First, paint the walls with an interesting hue. If a repainting job is not feasible at the moment, then you can always use wallpaper to cover the bland walls. Find the pattern that suits your chosen style.
  • Be sure to measure the lengths of clothing that will be placed in the closet. Longer dresses and skirts could require higher hanging bars.
  • Use clothes organizers that will help give the walk-in closet a tidier look.
  • Have a huge mirror installed and a cozy rug placed on the floor. Remember that you will be spending a lot of time dressing up in this part of your home so have it filled with ample lighting and windows where possible. Use ambient lighting for a more elegant look.
  • Never forget to decorate. A crown molding can be the crowning part of any walk-in closet.
  • Use drawers inside the walk-in closet for all those scarves, belts, and the cylindrical cans for your watches.

A Versatile Space

The walk-in closet also offers an opportunity to create depth in a bedroom. Since this room is often situated inside the master bedroom, it should be versatile and spacious enough to carry clothing, shoes, jewelry, bags, and just about every piece of accessory that he or she owns.

Bring in the right furniture pieces into this space. Primarily, you need a wardrobe that can serve as the focal point in this new room. Be sure to bring in a bench or two, some chairs, carpeting or an area rug, even full-length mirrors.

Shelving units and drawers are always wonderful additions.

The Biltmore Bed Bench Vanderbilt, on the other hand, is the seating piece for HER.

An Accessory Habitat

Banish all those shoes that have been scattered on the floor for the longest time. You could have shelves and organizers specifically for your shoe collection. These same shelving units can be used to house your wide array of bags and other accessories.

Make sure to use the floor space, too, for your high heels and boots. These are the ones that often don’t fit inside shelves so better create a space for them on the carpeted floor.
