Have You Turned Your "Extra Bedroom" Into A Closet????

ECBG · ‎01-08-2011

SO many bloggers have extra space (or are finding space) which they are turning into designer closets.

DH would have a fit! lol!!! He doesn't get it. None of the women in his family were into fashion at all.

I only need one br. for grandsons. We have 3 large bedrooms. I don't want to lose my Victorian furniture. Maybe I hate "cleaning closets"!

I have the space, I just don't!

Well, not formally but since my girls are all out of the house and married, I have taken over all three of their closets! I keep fall/winter clothes in one and spring/summer in another one.

Shoes and handbags in both of them.

I still have a lot of their old stuff here too. Prom dresses, graduation robes, bridesmaid dresses etc

I have not.. I have purged so much that my walk-in closet suits my needs. Since I have downsized my wardrobe it is much easier getting dressed. I found I was wearing only a small percentage of what was in my closet.

If I had an extra bedroom, I totally would make it into a giant closet. As it is now, my bedroom is pretty much a giant closet I sleep in and we have a giant walk in closet. O well, hubs loves me and takes up very little room. LOL

I would love to do that but I live in a 75-year old house so the bedrooms are small as are the closets.

NO, but I'll tell you what we did do a few years ago that I LOVE. We turned a small bedroom (formerly our son's bedroom) into the laundry room. No going up and down stairs to the basement. The room was a small bedroom, with a small closet, but it is just perfect as a laundry room for the washing machine, dryer, clothes racks and sink and we kept the small closet.

I could argue my case with your situation. DH's mother only had jeans and tees. In the day of your house, clothing changes were a luxury!

Not a clothes closet, but one bedroom has cabinets built especially to hold my holiday decor. And there is an Origami shelf in the closet for overflow from my food pantry.
