Carrie Bradshaw said it best, “I like my money right where I can see it…hanging in my closet.” The way I see it, a woman’s closet is her haven. A place to display all your pretties and dream up your next outfit. Your closet should represent your style and be a well organized space. Keep it budget friendly by putting in the work yourself. Here is how I conquered my DIY closet remodel.
Closet Furniture Pieces
When it comes to closet furniture and storage, there are a ton of great closet units out there but many come with a hefty price tag. To keep costs down, I rather opted for a cube storage bookcase and added legs to the piece for a more high end look. The piece is perfect for t-shirt storage and display. A closet island is often a dream item but can easily be achieved if you take the creative route of an alternative unit, like a craft table. Just like the bookcase, I styled it up with new knobs and storage bins. It’s become the perfect jewelry storage space as well as a place to layout my outfits.
DIY Closet Organization
For a closet to be functional, organization is key! It can take time to hunt and search for the perfect storage solutions, but it’s totally worth it. It was often a trial and error process for me to find the best pieces (tip: Amazon was a great shopping option given easy returns!). These are some of the organization finds I’ve put to good use:
- Honeycomb Separator Drawer Organizer Divider
- Shelf Dividers
- Purse Organizer
- Jewelry Tray
- Boot Hangers
- Shirt Folding Board
Make it Yours
To add personality to your closet, add some pieces that are personal to you and make a statement! Incorporating peel and stick wallpaper was high on my list but instead of placing on a wall, I opted on shelves which provided such a unique touch. Wall decor was another top priority for me, landing on a standout neon sign and designer inspired wall art. Lastly, a colorful rug, chandelier, mirror and ottoman sealed the deal for my DIY closet remodel! Stay tuned for a full tour on my IG feed!
Closet love,
