REVAMPED CLOSET

When my family and I moved into our present home 17 years ago,

I wanted to make some changes in a hall closet but between

one thing and another, I put it off for another time.

The time finally came for me to change the closet.

I got rid of the clothes rod and cleaned out all the things

that was stored in the closet.  It only had one shelf 

and I had a metal bookcase to store things - I hated it.

This is what I had in the closet for storing games and other things.

 

So I went to Lowe's and bought three pine boards for shelves.

I wanted to surprise my husband and get it done before he would notice.

Well, he noticed and decided that he was going to help me.

I'm glad he did because he did built something for me to put in the

closet which I love very much.

 I measured the three boards using the existing board from the closet

 I used Jorge's saw and cut them all up. 

 I painted the boards using paint I had at home.

 Jorge built me this wine rack.

 I painted the whole closet and started storing things

As you can see, the top has my canning supplies and

the one below has the wine and some of my Tupperware.

 More storage for my things that used to be on the floor

or top of each other in the metal bookcase.

 The right side of the closet with my Tupperware.

 Our games and several more things.

The rest of the things that I can put on the floor 

because they are still in their boxes.

Now it's easier to get to things without

feeling like I was on a trek to find it.

I am now on a roll and ready to do the next project.

I just have to decide which one it is that I want to 

do first.  So many choices!  :)
