Congrats and thanks for sharing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1211328 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 13:23:31 +0000 Ledonna N. 1211328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a wonderful make over. I live in a studio apartment with no closet storage so I'm loving this. Heavy envy going on right now. But, I've got to be strong ( wipes away tear) lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124812 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 19:53:40 +0000 Anonymous 1124812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is absolutely gorgeous.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124734 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 18:16:13 +0000 Janet 1124734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, it is! I'm seeing my wardrobe in a whole new light, literally (changed out the light fixture too). Having things so organized and well-displayed is motivating me to shop my closet rather than the stores! I can see what I have so much better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124686 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 17:30:06 +0000 Angie 1124686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. Now shopping your closet is extra fun.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124682 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 17:26:03 +0000 Janet 1124682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Linda, you're smart to think vertically about your storage space! As you can see, our steeply sloped ceiling and the exposed beam make our space a little tricky, but I'm very happy with the solution. Working with the abundant vertical space was key. I've not seen the Pax units, but it sounds like it could be a good, flexible, inexpensive way to fix your closet. Good luck figuring out your solutions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124666 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 16:58:19 +0000 Linda 1124666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, gorgeous, and it sounds like you found a great contractor, Jan!&nbsp; DH and I have been mulling our closet circumstances now for some time.&nbsp; (I have seriously built my wardrobe over the past year, I think I am emerging from post-retirement-dullville lol!).</p> <p>Our closet is a walk-in style but after you walk in, there is this odd elevated section in the back.&nbsp; You can't really store much in the closet!&nbsp; A couple of years ago, we did hire a closet fitter, and they put some narrow shelving in and changed the way our closet rods ran -- adding a low and a high rod on one wall.&nbsp; </p> <p>Unfortunately, the new design just hasn't worked for us.&nbsp; I am not a very "custom" type of woman, and I haven't looked around for drawers to fit in the shelving area.&nbsp; We have tried several different brands of bins, and none of those worked.&nbsp; </p> <p>Now we are looking at the PAX line at IKEA (or planning to).&nbsp; Have you seen this?&nbsp; (Anyone use it?)&nbsp; It's wardrobe modules of furniture.&nbsp; Since our house is tiny by today's standards, I want to go vertical with as much as I can.&nbsp; I've got one wall that doesn't have windows or heating registers, and I'd like to put a run of PAX in there, maybe with a mirror sliding-door closure.&nbsp; There seem to be a lot of options for the interior of PAX, slide-out bins, drawers, shelves, rods, and so on.&nbsp; </p> <p>Congratulations on the new closet, Jan!&nbsp; I envy you the ease with which you're able now to choose your outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124504 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 07:37:55 +0000 Tanya 1124504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Simply beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124503 Mon, 30 Dec 2013 07:34:59 +0000 jamieyh 1124503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so great to have all your things organized so well.

I want this. Actually the shoes are my favorite part - I have a good closet but am so bad at upkeep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/3#post-1124153 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 20:31:10 +0000 Anonymous 1124153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those shots&nbsp;seriously looks like they&nbsp;could come from a boutique, with the impressive organization and the wood shelving.

It must be an absolute pleasure to walk in there.

And that's a wardrobe that actually accommodates the way you dress, right. Didn't you say you often choose your shoes and then build the outfit from there? And voila, shoes front and center! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/2#post-1123949 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 05:31:59 +0000 Anonymous 1123949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Simply wow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/2#post-1123937 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 04:54:36 +0000 Janet 1123937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karymk, they designed it with me. The sales rep was great about going back and forth as many times as we needed to in order to finalize the design. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/2#post-1123902 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 03:42:59 +0000 Shirley 1123902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am envious. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/2#post-1123835 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 02:08:04 +0000 Meli 1123835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty! Wish i had a better closet where everything could be organized &amp; displayed!!! 2/3 of the closet is my husband's clothes and it crowds mine right out lol, he can't purge anything AT ALL. Not even holey socks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/2#post-1123832 Sun, 29 Dec 2013 02:04:16 +0000 Jaime 1123832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mouth gaping open.

You got me thinking for sure.&nbsp; Looks like we will stay in this house forever (that was up in the air) so why not do up my closet the way I want it.&nbsp; Do they design it for you? How do they figure out what you need? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-new-closet/page/2#post-1123722 Sat, 28 Dec 2013 22:33:08 +0000 kkards 1123722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so jealous.
