MBR Walk-In Closet: Need Ideas & Pics
Comments (4)First, measure your clothes to determine how much short. medium and long hanging space you need. Rather than one set of drawers under the hanging rods, have a stack of drawers. Instead of bifold doors, have double doors. You can mirror the inside and use both doors to get a good look at your front and back. Here's an example of a closet with double doors. These doors are very wide. I have 18" wide doors, for a 36" wide opening, which is plenty. Inexpensive door mirrors are around 14-16" wide and 60" long, so they can fit easily on the inside of the closet door....See MoreLighting for small walk in closet
Comments (3)Thanks all. Wife doesn't mind the can lights and we have 2, so that's probably the cheapest way to go. I'll wire in an outlet in the closet, should we need to add LED or task lighting later....See MoreNeed help choosing a BM off-white paint for a walk-in closet
Comments (9)what kind of bulbs do you have in there? they look on the lower temperature or 'yellow' end. You may want to replace the lighting, or at least the bulbs to something in a 4000K temp. what color is currently there? it already looks like an off-white. I like using the white straight out of the can with no tint added. it's the perfect white. You could always try that in your closet. with your lighting, it will take on a warmer hue anyway. And, if you don't like it, take it back and have your tint added to it for another color. free. I've never heard of Simply White having a green cast. it's one of the most neutrals whites. Chantilly has a blue/green cast. does it have to be white? why not a color? I'd also paint the wood trim in there a glossy white. it will help w/the freshen-up. Alabaster is a warmer white. pale oak is the perfect neutral and works with everything. (you could do that for the wall and the Alabaster for that wood trim)...See MoreBuilding a large walk-in closet for wife, need advice on dimensions
Comments (2)What about a hidden inner closet for storing valuables or ? So it looks like a large closet, but there is a hidden panel/passage to another closet. :)...See Morehomepro01
