Spring Break Project One: Closet Makeover

So if you know me, you know that I have ALWAYS wanted to repaint my closet. In the sixth grade, when I first got my cat, I drew some lovely cat drawings on the walls of my closet, thinking that was how I wanted to paint it. When I actually decided to do it this spring, I opted for something a little more grown up, though. Weird.
All sarcasm aside, I painted it the same green as my bedroom and added a gold stencil border around the top. I also took this opportunity to majorly clean out my closet. I had bags for trash, recycling, and give away. And even then, there was stuff I wanted to save that got stored neatly in the attic instead of junking up my closet.

 I made a little shelf from an old straightening iron box, which I spray painted gold to match the stenciling. Put some gold Christmas hooks in the bottom to hang some of my purses, and then the shelf has my purse contents. Love the organization!



The rest of my purses

The shelf in my closet, I used for my bigger shoes (heels, sneakers, and those lovely saddle shoes) and their boxes so I could keep my closet floor clear.

I can see my closet floor again!

Have a good spring break!
