Recently we were woken up by what seemed like life just throwing annoying house issues at us. The closet "system", which was really just a long pole stuck into the two ends of the room came crashing down one morning! I had been saying this was going to happen for days, but it finally happened. All of our clothes, boxes, and random junk we kept in the closet now sprawled all over the floor. WHAT A WAY TO WAKE UP...am I right?!

See, with me recently moving in with Scott (my boyfriend of 4 years 😋), came a lot more stuff that the closet wasn't equipped to handle apparently! I was "slowly" moving bags of clothes and hanging them up without Scott knowing. (I did it when he wasn't home... shhh....). But because the closet was being used by a man who has far less clothes, and really only likes maybe 4 t-shirts it became very noticeable it was an issue. But we just continued living hoping for the best.
Now to be completely honest, this closet needed a remodel. It just wasn't a priority. NO, I did not help this along I swear! But since everything came crashing down, it was the perfect time to make it better.
We bought a real closet system, and stayed up for hours that night putting it together. It's got multiple shelves, and places to hang clothes, and I just love it!
I also took this opportunity to purchase a vanity. It has become my favorite room in the house, because let's be real, I completely took it over.
Now I need you to see what this closet looked like the day it all came crashing down....
As you can see it was one long bar holding up a ton of clothes, and then some shelves holding a bunch of crap. To be honest, I think we threw away everything on this shelf. It was such a wasted opportunity!
Now I'll show you the finished product and my favorite place to hang out and do my make up for too long :)
As you can see, it's come a long way from what it was. If you ask me, it just needed someone who cared about the space. Which in the case of a closet would be a female. Scott would have never redone a closet! But to be fair he would have never accidentally taken the closet down with his excessive amount of clothes.
It all worked out though and that's all that matters!
And rest assured, this will not be the last thing that gets a makeover. 🙈
