AND ON TO THE CLOSET RENOVATION

AND ON TO THE CLOSET RENOVATION 



Now that I've emptied out the closet, it's time to start...




The closet measures 66.5" wide x 33 3/4" deep.It featured a 16" deep shelf 18" down from the ceiling, as well as a 12" deep shelf 6" above the floor for shoes, and a rod for hanging clothes. I removed the bottom shelf and the rod(to use in a laundry room project) and took out the top shelf for ease of painting/papering.
 
The ceiling sports a single-bulb fixture which I am leaving intact for the time being. I will be needing additional electrical outlets as well as an additional fixture placed in my clothing closet and bathroom, so I will wait and have Dave, my amazing and gorgeous electrician, come in and perform those tasks at a later date to save time and money. I plan on using a vintage lamp on my desk to illuminate the work space. My next step will be to wash down the walls, remove the hooks you see on the walls, and patch those holes. I will paint the walls and hang wallpaper on a portion of the walls. When I have reached that stage, I'll post photos :) Stay tuned!
