I get asked “what is the exact size of your closet? I want to do something similar in mine…” So here you go…
And these are my final plans for my master closet to give you a few more details.
Floorplan
Hope that helps.
If you saw this post before when it had the complete plans: Sorry, the pictures got lost in the “Great Blog Break” and I can’t find them on my computer either.

Looks like a great plan. Will be watching for every single update and photo. Will you have a sitting area in the middle? I think you need a plush bench to sit & enjoy the space when you contemplate the fashion for the day!
Yes!
I don’t think there is room. I tried to plan one in there, believe me. Two actually, one under each chandelier. But the closet just isn’t wide enough after the cabinets go in. If I did 18″ deep cabs then I could have a 12″ wide bench in the middle but I decided I’d rather have deeper cabinets. I’m considering a bench window seat but will wait until everything else is in so I can get a “feel” for the room. Sometimes no matter how well you plan, when you get to the installation, you just have to change everything because you decide what you planned feels wrong. Know what I mean? Anyway, I’ll build what I’ve planned and then see what else can go in. If a bench doesn’t make the isles feel too crowded, then we’ll have a bench!
What a great use of the space! I love the design and setup. Oh how I would love to have a closet like this!
Sandra thanks for sharing, so pro looking with the sketch up. I’m so old fashioned with pencil and paper! And my eraser gets a lot of use. Great tip about the separate base versus taller cabinet piece, so smart to save on the cuts.
Sometimes old fashioned pencil and paper is faster and easier! If I’m tossing around lots of ideas, I like to be able to save my floorplan and then “Save As” Plan1, Plan 2, etc. It’s so much easier to move a cabinet, stretch out a wall out, delete a section… But I often just grab a pencil too.
Thanks for the planning tips–I’m following closely since I want to redo my closet sometime. Although I don’t have all the fantastic space you do!
That is really neat. Well thought out and organized. Unlike all the home remodeling projects my mom attempted over the years. Ugh.
WOW! This looks great. I love sketch up. I wish Mr. Woodsy would use it more often. Most of the time he scribbles on a piece of paper that normally gets lost in the shuffle.
Fabulous. Just want I needed as I want to do my closet. Looking forward to all the progress and update posts!
Just found you — don’t ask me how; I just click on links that look interesting, then others on that site, ad infinitum. I did stop here, though, long to look this over and subscribe! Loving it and loving your enthusiasm, skill, energy & vision. Thanks!
Excellent work and site. I have a question on the drawers. Did you build them yourself or is there a kit or something to use? I plan on doing something similiar but I don’t know quite how to build the drawers? Are the veneer fronts?
Thanks for the inspiration!
I love your closet!! I am about to attempt…to make my own. Do you have a step by step of your process as well as the full list of materials you used? I know my setup would be a little different but would love to have a idea on all the materials and the steps. Thanks!!!
