The great closet adventure...part 1

Hello everyone!

I hope your week is going well, I myself have been attempting to get my sewing machine repaired and returned to me ( a whole other story! ugh!)
And....working on my new closet!

I am so excited!
It is nearly complete and I can't wait to actually have a home for my undies other than a plastic bin!

As with all of my projects....things are laid out on grid paper...

paint and fabric samples are gathered...

And I put together a mood box or board, depending on how much I have already accumulated.

Just before the holidays...I spent a good bit of time hanging drywall...

mudding....sanding.

And gathering all of my goodies! (The very best part of any project!)

This is what the closet looked like right after I gave it back to my hubby to work on

(He had just installed my crown moulding and trimmed out the little window)

Don't you just love my lighting! Yes! It's just a light bulb dangling from the ceiling!

Then I left for a bit

And went to  visit with Rebecca....

I returned to this...

I thought I had died and gone to heaven!

I am so stinkin' proud of him!

This is his first attempt at drawers and they are simply divine!

I am not sure if I even have enough clothes to fill them!

I am sure I can remedy this though! (hee, hee!)

By the weekend...it will be mine once more.

I have decided to wallpaper the ceiling...

stain the cabinetry...

and paint the walls a luscious shade of pink!

I have ordered carpet samples from Flor

a mirror from Ballards

And found a wonderful new iron from Target...it's pink!

And will live right here in my hide-away ironing board closet!

I also bought one of the  faceted crystal ball chandy at the store

to replace the bare bulb thing!

It's been so long since I had a place to put my clothing...I think I will move a cot into the closet and just look at it for awhile!

So until next time!
