Closets need at least one rod or rack for hanging clothes.
Designing a new creative closet system helps you get your bedroom organized. The next time you wake up in the morning running late for work, you can find exactly what you need in your organized closet. The key to each idea is beginning with sturdy materials that will support clothing and knick-knacks. The closet system's materials should also match your bedroom decor. Does this Spark an idea?
Small Space
Concentrate first on the main part of the closet where you will store the majority of your clothes. Choose a rod or a rack for your clothes. Then organize every space above and below this main attraction with smaller storage units. For example, you can add tie racks, shoe racks, underwear drawers and belt hooks where appropriate. If you have a small budget, you might invest in wire versions of these rods, racks and drawers and move them around as needed as your closet needs change.
Built-In
If you've ever visited a home with marvelous built-in closets, you may have wondered what it takes to achieve the same effect in your home. All you need are a few steps to plan your creative closet. Take the measurements of the closet and sketch out the way you will use lumber to create the right-sized shelves. Then purchase lumber and supplies for installing the shelves. Add wood shelves into the closet and then cover them with white paint. Or choose a different color of paint to match other decor features in the bedroom, such as the color of the carpet or the wallpaper in the bedroom.
Red Cedar
Some homeowners want a woodsy, natural closet. Consider the purchase of a red-cedar storage system online or look for the components at a local retailer. An alternative is to order lumber from an Eastern or Western red-cedar supplier and make your own system. The resulting closet system will match those cedar hangers found at high-end retailers. Cedar also continues the wood-decor theme in a home with lots of wood floors, exposed timber beams and natural wood paneling.
