Decorate A Walkin Closet

Organizing your walk-in closet also decorates it.


If your walk-in closet lacks your personal decorating style, it's time to decorate it. A walk-in closet varies from a traditional closet due to the fact you can physically turn on the light, walk inside the closet and close the door. Typically, clothes hang on three or four walls of the closet. Displaying and organizing items in a walk-in closet also decorates it. You don't need any special skills or tools to decorate a walk-in closet. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Paint the walls of the walk-in closet with interior paint, a paintbrush and a paint roller. When selecting a paint color for your walk-in closet, take into account the fact that light paint colors create an appearance of a large space, and dark paint makes the space appear small and dreary. Select a light paint color to create an open airy feeling in the walk-in closet.


2. Paint the trim of the walk-in closet with interior paint. Select a dark paint color for the trim as this adds dimension to the walls of the walk-in closet.


3. Stick wall decals on the walls in your walk-in closet to decorate them. Consider placing the wall decals at the top of the walls. Placing wall decals at the top of the walls draws attention to the wall and trim color.


4. Hang a closet organizer in your walk-in closet. Depending upon your personal items in the closet, you may wish to hang more than one closet organizer. Closet organizers decorate the closet and provide an area to organize items in it.


5. Place a shoe organizer on the floor in your walk-in closet. A shoe organizer typically sits next to a wall. Adding a shoe organizer allows you to organize your shoes and use them as decorations in your walk-in closet.


6. Hang mirrors on one wall in your walk-in closet. You may wish to create a wall of mirrors by hanging mirrors on an entire wall. Creating a wall of mirrors decorates the closet, allows you to visually see how you look and creates an appearance of a larger walk-in closet.
