Have you considered getting rid of one of the closet doors when you have the budget? You're very talented an determined, and I'm sure you could tackle a little framing and dry wall. ;) I love your blog!

I have a box of shower hooks that I installed backwards and used backwards for years because the clearance Pottery Barn Dr. Seuss shower curtain had ginormous holes.

I'm planning to make the move to using the velvety hangers soon, which will be a perfect time to maybe pare down the clothing situation. <br /><br />Pro tip: Thicker, rolled up catalogs (like the large Victoria's Secret ones) also work well for boots, and if you get as many catalogs in the mail as I do, it means they're free. =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1468383212336747161.post-35136121043366168252013-09-12T10:32:16.590-04:002013-09-12T10:32:16.590-04:00Virginia, I only discovered your blog three days a...Virginia, I only discovered your blog three days ago, and you have already inspired me so much! Just reading your "about me" page, I was thinking "oh, lord, she's me! Only, you know...prettier and younger, lol! We are working on buying the house we've been renting for the last two years, and I want to make changes...but don't want to do anything major until we sign on the dotted line. Things that are cheap, like paint, I'll do. I've been painting doors, and doing little updates in the hall bath...but this closet project just draws me! My closet is tiny - but the organization and painting is still inspirational!
