Master Closet Built-Ins
I’ve been building these built-in wardrobes for my Master Closet for four months so I can’t even express how happy I am to finally say, “IT IS FINISHED!” It is amazing to have so much space to hang and store our clothes. I’m so happy that I stuck it out — even though I wanted to throw in the towel a few times.
Master Closet Built-Ins
The large drawers are practically big enough to climb in and have 100 lb. glides that are soft/self closing (for the person in this house that never manages to get drawers fully closed! u-hem, u-hem)
The door you can see is to the laundry room and behind the camera is the Master Bathroom that will be getting redone sometime. That project will include tearing a portion of the closet/bathroom wall out so I haven’t built my 9’x6′ shoe cabinet yet.
Then, of course, there’s the matter of the built-in ironing board that is going in next to that off-center window and the rolling ladder… so the closet is only mostly done!
(Who just thought of Princess Bride, “…he’s only MOSTLY dead”? I did!)
But it’s usable!
Walk in closet before
It’s leaps and bounds better than it was when we moved in.
And we are going to enjoy it!!!
In case you missed my progress updates along the way, here’s a short recap of my project. As well as a celebratory happy dance!
A HUGE thank you to Wes for his help this weekend. I was ready to toss in a match last week. Thankfully Wes pulled some “enthusiasm for using a drill” out of nowhere and came through for me!
It’s been a long, hard journey and now that it’s (mostly) done, I can say it was worth it! Now, we can move in and enjoy the holidays. And hopefully my next project won’t be QUITE so involved or time consuming. Here’s hoping!

I Love it! and I know what you mean about biting off a big chunk. The playhouse needs to be done in 3 days! And I work full time. Yikes. I love your work … now enjoy it 🙂 Merry Christmas!!!
Good Luck Joy. The playhouse looks amazing now. I thought you were done!
Woo Hoo! I made the deadline and she loved it!!! I am so excited 🙂 Now to
write a blog to send to you to share 🙂 I am so excited as I have not ever
done this before … so here goes nothing.
woot woot! awesome! I really like those chandeliers. When I saw this update pop up I thought “OMG are the rolling ladders in too???”
That’s the part I’m most interested in seeing how you rig it up. Although you could quit now and it would still be like living in Jennifer Lopez’s house. You da (wo)MAN!!
I wish! I’m at a good stopping point for now. I’ll move on to other projects that NEED to be done and then, someday when I’m bored, I’ll tackle the ladder! At least we’re not tripping over our clothes any more. Heavens part, angels sing! LOL
WOW! That is one amazing closet! Carrie Bradshaw would be jealous! 😀 Seriously, you do really beautiful work and should be very proud.
That is one stunning closet–sheer perfection!
There is nothing to equal the joy and relief of finishing a long, involved project, is there?
Well done!
Thanks Donna. Nothing comes to mind… 😀
