    Small Closet? Great ideas to get the most out of a small walk in closet

    Shelving is easy to cut to size, and therefore this closet makes the most of even the tiniest nooks.

    Utilizing wall space is key to making sure there is space for everything.

    Our closet will likely be narrow like this one, but at least I won’t have to put my clothes in the guest room closet anymore.

    This shoe rack makes the most of space by having shallower shelves for flats and taller shelves for heels.

    Beautiful and clever small closet ideas

    In older homes and small apartments it’s hard to find great storage and closet space solutions. Don’t let the words wardrobe and armoire scare you though! There are some seriously great designs to choose from that give you the storage you need.

    When it comes to hanging your clothing, if your space is lacking a built-in closet, a stand-in wardrobe can be just as effective. By adding in shelving, baskets, shoe racks, drawer units and even pin-boards for outfit inspiration, you have a custom closet solution tailored to your personal needs.

    There are simple, modern, sleek ones that let you close all the doors and not notice any clutter. Most of these have great options for how you can stack and shelve things as well!

    We have a very, very small linen closet in our home that could really benefit from a treatment like this.

    Don’t neglect small accessories – they need a designated place too. Having these guys piled up in a corner or shelf can really make or break the feeling of chaos.  Clear acrylic boxes or no-frills baskets are a good way to organize small items if you don’t have a drawer.

    Your walls are your best friends when you live small.  Hang as much up as you can and save precious surface, drawer, and rail space for items that can’t go on walls.

  • Luxury Bedroom Wish List

    Luxury Bedroom Wish List

    The bedroom is one of the most important rooms in the house,  not only for it’s obvious function as a place to sleep or store your clothes and shoes, but the role it plays a private haven or sanctuary away from everything else ( remember when you were a teenager!).Ultimately a bedroom should be relaxing, comfortable and a little self-indulgent, after all it’s your bedroom and need reflect only your tastes and personality, with maybe the exception of your partner if applicable! But just for the sake of self-indulgence here are the top 5 contemporary furniture essentials for the perfectly luxurious bedroom….

    The Walk in Wardrobe
    It’s hard to imagine any woman who hasn’t fantasied about a custom fitted walk in closet to house all of her clothes and shoes, equipped with full length mirrors and a dressing table (yes I’m thinking Sex & the City style!) Although many of us may not have the space to have essentially what is a bedroom within a bedroom; a great alternative is fitted wardrobes with customized accessories to organize all your things along with mirrored sliding doors to make the most out the space available.

    King-sized Upholstered Bed

    I used to think King-sized beds were unnecessary. But now, I find myself liking more and more space to stretch out when I sleep. And nothing is more luxurious than a fluffy upholstered headboard.

    An over-sized floor length mirror.
    A generously sized mirror casually leaning against the wall adds an instant sumptuousness to any space.  It’s a great way to reflect candle light, and add some romance.  It’s also the best way to make sure your look is pulled together before leaving for the day!

    Flueless Fire
    I grew up with a fire always going in the winters, so I’d be happy with any fireplace. But, there is nothing like a flueless fire to warm up a contemporary bedroom and provide a fantastic focal point.  Not only do they keep the room pretty toasty the glass protector in front never gets too hot to touch making them a health and safety dream!


    Appropriate Bedroom Lighting

    There’s nothing I dread more than harsh and cold overhead lighting.  The bedroom, more than any other room in the home, demands dimmer, warmer lighting.  If you have an overhead fixture, it must be on a dimmer switch.  In fact, I’d like every light switch in my home to have a dimmer switch.
    Since your be is often the focal point, it’s especially important that your bedside lamps, whether matching or not, be beautiful and give off soft light (though still provide enough light to read by).

    Vanity 
    Another glamor girl must have, a vanity, or dressing table, makes your otherwise dreary morning routine feel a little more like pampering. Make sure your dressing table has ample storage options for cosmetics, whether through the use of drawers or pretty baskets or containers, a luxe chair or stool, and a mirror.  This is one place where you want to make sure you have access to good lighting.  Strip lights or bulbs along the sides of the mirror are better than overhead.  It helps to place your vanity near an outlet so you can use your hot tools or other electronics while getting ready.

    What are your must-haves or on your luxury bedroom wishlist?

  • Need a little extra wardrobe space?

    Need a little extra wardrobe space?

    I saw this in issue 3 of Lonny Mag and I really thought it was a cool idea. We could all use a little extra closet space – but what I really like about this is that it shows you how to create a little extra space for your accessories. I know I would love a closet specifically dedicated to shoes, handbags, and jewelry.

    The wardrobe they use in this demonstration is called PAX from Ikea.

    So nice!


    I like the idea of adding a mirror to turn the wardrobe into a little vanity.

    Go Lonny Mag, Archive, Issue 3 to see the project in the magazine.
