This, that and oh yea -

Saturday morning we decided to DEMO the girls dysfunctional/nonfunctional closet.

You can totally tell a man designed the closets in newer homes because they just slapped a shelf and a rod and called it done.  No thought at all.  So after months of trying to fit 3 VERY cute but EXCESSIVE amounts of girl clothes into the closet it was time to revamp it.

Plus I had to fit bunk beds, a crib and clothes into this room. So here is what we did.

We primed the old pink closet. Repainted it a different shade of pink. Ripped out the shelf.

Sanded, re drywalled, puttied and primed again.

Painted it one last time.

Then installed the new system.

Most people don't like the wired shelving, but I like it because it doesn't get dusty, I can see right through it and Lowes will cut it any length you want right there for you. Awesome. I am all about instant results. Plus this quick fix was under $45 for the shelving and brackets and cutting!

I found these white baskets on Clearance at Lowes and they are plastic so they wipe right off!

The Green Box has blessing outfits and the certificates in them.  Each basket has fun stuff in it.

What is missing...the tall white dresser and the mirror over the dresser. Oh and the yellow gingham curtain that will hang instead of doors.Other than that once it arrives with the beds the room will be done!

I gave you a little sneak peek at what the room looks like...more on that later.

Oh yea -
Bridget got her way and got 4.5 inches cut off her hair on Saturday too.  Isn't it so cute?  I love how it makes her cute cheeks look. :)

To this!

What do you think of the closet?

Post Edit - thank you netflix for having Land Before Time on Instant Play so I could paint trim this afternoon. :D

Land Before Time - Thanks a lot for making my kids cry when the Mom died. I had to sit with them for 20 minutes and assure them I was not going to be killed by Sharp Tooth.

Lucas thank you for telling the girls the reality - "Dinosaurs won't kill mom - wrinkles and gray hair will."
