My version of walk-in wardrobe

What a girl to do when she has so many clothes and so little space to put them?

When I was staying at the apartment, I had 2 built-in wardrobe installed in the bedroom and the smaller room. The main wardrobe for my dresses and the other one to store my winter jackets, gowns, belts, beddings, shoes, socks etc etc... They were enough. But when I moved to the new place, I realized my lack of wardrobe space. Panicked but not to give up, I tried finding ideas on how to store my clothes. I bought a chest of drawers and a 10 footer wardrobe but apparently they aren't enough space still. Though the bedroom I have now is way bigger than the one I had in the apartment, there is still not enough space to properly store my clothes.

And so I dragged Bo to Ikea and bought some clothes racks and shelves. Since the family area upstairs was empty, I thought I might as well utilize it to store my clothing. Right after the handyman assembled all the racks and shelves, I excitedly begin my works at arranging the clothes and shoes and bags that were before put in 2 boxes in the storeroom. It was exciting, really! Even more exciting after I finished everything. Now, it's easier for me to find what I'd want to wear.

OK, You may wonder why I use the family room and not one of the 3 extra bedrooms I have in the house. I have 3 other bedrooms in the house, I know it's a big house. All the bedrooms have been taken up for different purposes. The guest room downstairs has been turned into our study. The bedroom 1 is where the girls stay and bedroom 2 is for guest who wishes to stay with me. So, I have no choice but to put my clothing in the open space of the family area.

I am just hoping that no weird bug would attack my clothes, shoes and bags or I will burn the house down! Anyway, here are some pictures for you to get some ideas on how they look like.




I'm missing body foam and a life size mirror and maybe a little island bar in the middle for accessories. Hehehehe....

Darling, it's not my own house. This is just temporary... When I move to my own new house, I'll built a proper one. It'll be a wastage if I was to build one.
