Closet Project


Closet Project:

My wonderful (engineer) husband designed my closet for me when we were first dating. Needless to say he did not live with me at the time and therefore had no idea what he was in for with this project! My clothing occupies 3 separate spaces in our 2 bedroom condo (yes, you read that correctly. I may not be the greatest at math but 3 spaces and only 2 bedrooms; thank God for our basement storage space). In the upcoming weeks, I plan to transform our storage room in the basement to hold all of my clothing, shoes, handbags and jewelry; on as cheap of a budget as I can manage (and still have it look expensive). Bear with me and wish me luck! I'll keep you posted on my progress.

                                                                  The Jewelry Bar:


The current situation (1 of 3 rooms I currently occupy)

Done on a strict budget this is what I opted for as "walls"


How it began:


How it's looking so far:


These bookcases have been around longer than I have!
They used to be laminate wood, my mom painted them black and now I am painting them white.

$8 Chandelier I found a few months ago at Salvation Army
I staple gunned sheer white fabric to make a "ceiling" (pictures coming soon)

Wrapping paper from TJMaxx covers the one wall, to make it an accent wall!
        

I found shelving contact paper at the Dollar Tree that looks like wood flooring!
Since this is not a high traffic area and I don't plan on moving furniture across the floor,
it should not get damaged.



Still minor tweaks to make but here it is!!!

My Little Bathroom Nook

              My little bathroom nook is finally complete! We been in the cottage for 5 months now and when we moved in it was the beginning of the shut downs so it was like just get moved in and deal with getting settled later! When we moved in it was a plane storage closet with the electrical box. I can't even remember if we had shelves or not. We purchased a little plastic 3 drawer storage box on wheels from Meijer and that was about it. We put an accordion door on it so we could close it (out of sight when we had guests). But honestly mid party I would realize we had forgotten to close it and our junk was still in sight! So here we are several months later, about to start on the main house but at least I finally finished this to enjoy the last few months or so while we are still living in the cottage! Pink Washcloths from Target because our old ones met  their fate from a pen in the washing machine. DIY TIP: If you have a bottle that you...

Poolside Must Haves

So after my trip I found a few fun items needed for poolside... Turkish Beach Towel from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071J1RPS7/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Inflatabull: https://www.amazon.com/Intex-Inflat-Bull-Inflatable-Pool/dp/B01KUL0CWY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1506533254&sr=8-3&keywords=inflatable+bull Ice Cream Sandwiches: Choose a cookie and your favorite ice cream, one scoop and close with another cookie. It's great because as you lick the ice cream you can mash the cookies and it makes it easier to eat the ice cream in the middle

Heelusions

These have seriously changed my life! My husband and I are travelers, especially to Vegas. I tend to try to travel light. I don't like hauling bags through the airport or even from the car to the hotel room. Being a Fashion Blogger requires multiple shoe and outfit options so this company was the perfect answer to my dilemma. Now I can bring one or two heels on a trip and with their heel wraps it's easy to change the look of an outfit and get several looks! Below are a few of their "best sellers" and for more check out their website:  https://www.heelusions.com
