This popped up on my feed. 

 

Is it something that you would like to have, like in a spare room, or do you prefer an enclosed closet with more hanging storage?

Re: Creating a Dressing Room

@lolakimono     I actually did that in my spare bedroom.    This house is lacking in closet and cabinet space.    I also "created" a pantry in the kitchen.     "Mine" doesn't look as professional, tho.   Who cares?   People think I'm kinda "eccentric" anyway..........(!!!)

Re: Creating a Dressing Room

I prefer a closet where I can close the door or doors and it looks neat.  My closet space is organized but I prefer it behind closed doors.

Re: Creating a Dressing Room

@lolakimono This is similar to what my daughter wants to do with one of the bedrooms in my house.

 

I have way too many clothes.  I've filled up all of the closets in the house.

 

When I broke my back my youngest daughter quit her job and has been here with me getting rid of things I no longer wear or use.

 

Two of my daughters have decided I need someone to come in once a week to clean my house. 

 

I like the picture you posted.  It gave me some ideas.

Thank you!

 

That is what I spent almost a month doing at my mom's house last summer.  Every person we met while out and about said "oh, can she come to my house next?"

 

We "curated" a collection of truly meaningful items and cleared out the clutter.

 

It took a long time, but I know she is pleased with the changes.

Re: Creating a Dressing Room

Much better than just rolling carts but not nearly as costly and permanent as building closets. This may be an apartment, or they simply didn't want to put in closets permanently. There is storage but not nearly enough like a regular closet.

Re: Creating a Dressing Room

Not enough hanging space for me -- seems like a waste of space.

Oh my gosh............Annabellthecat re: your back..........Wishing you a complete and quick recovery.

 

You're so lucky to have your dear daughter living with you, and your two other daughters who are very considerate to help your daughter by wanting a cleaning service to help her twice a week.

 

Very thoughtful of them.  Sending you and them a big hug.

Re: Creating a Dressing Room

I would organize the room differently.  In this picture, the wardrobe seems small and open space huge.

Re: Creating a Dressing Room

It's not practical for me.  I'm fine with a closet.
