Closeted

Sunday Joni cleared all of the stuff out of the closet in the master bedroom, painted the walls, and I put in the closet organizer.

I am impressed by how versatile the kit is. It is meant to configure a 5 to 8 foot closet. The configuration I made almost doubles the mount of hanging clothes space, with (2) 3-foot bars for shirts and blouses, and a 20 inch bar for full-length items. I was also able to fit in some 16 inch shelves.

The ceiling in the closet slopes down on one side. I could still run a shelf most of the way to the other side.

If I do another closet, I will probably skip the kit and custom design it. The kit only has shelves up to 3 feet long; I could have used a couple 4-1/2 foot long shelves to continue the run for the rods, carrying the shelf run into the stack of 16 inch shelves.

The sagging bar, sagging shelf, and doors will be tossed. I will replace the doors with bi-fold doors to maximize the size of the open area.

I put more photos up on Flickr - check them out at http://www.flickr.com/photos/noresponse/sets/. The tags feature is pretty cool - I started organizing photos according to who is in them. The larger the size of the tag, the more often it occurs in the photos.
