    Can I just thank you for being a natural-haired hottie icon!?!? Over the past couple years I've had a bunch of grays start to come in and am completely stoked to let them grow out naturally (in huge part due to you) :)

    Thank you, seeing your process with creating a custom closet is very helpful for those of us still thinking about the project. The duck episode was great. I can relate to your reaction; we had a deer leave her newborn fawn in our backyard and it freaked me out all day. I was constantly checking on that baby; didn’t get anything done that day. Apparently it’s normal for a doe to hide her baby (nicely tucked in under a rose bush) for 6-8 hours while they roam for food. That’s what I got done that day-research on deer parenting! Family reunited and all was well.

    My favorite closet had shirt and pant hanging space. My pants when hung were about 6in from the floor. It made them easily accessible. Then an area for dresses with a bar that was the same height as the higher bar of the double bar area. Because of ceiling height there was one shelf above the top bar. It was nice storage for items I didn't need all the time like luggage.

    You should do a glass top on the island in your boutique room, with a tray drawer for storing your bracelets and such. Instead of the glass shelving. Thanks for sharing!

    Great video! We had our California Closets install about a month ago and am beyond thrilled with the entire process: from consultation, design, finish options, installation, rep follow up. It went so smoothly and we are LOVING being so organized. Bonus - we actually wear ALL our clothes now because we can see them. Can't wait to see the finished closets; you picked a gorgeous design!

    You should switch the glass front cabinet and the one for your special garments. That way when you walk in you see the pretty lit cabinet first.

    Closet input: Measure how many feet across you have now of long hanging and short hanging to give you an idea of what you'll need. Also all my shelves are moveable, especially shoes to accommodate boots and/or heels. I put off season clothing on upper racks.

    We had a leak in the bathroom, which leaked into my walk-in closet. Everything needed to be ripped out due to water damage. It was tiny, and I always wanted to extend it. So, I knocked down the wall, built a new one, and I increased the size by one-third. I put new flooring in over the weekend and now, it is perfect. I love home improvement...especially closets :)

It's very exciting to get a go ahead from a client to be creative 🥰

    The closet planning was so fun.
    I would have looked into having that vanity table/ jewelry storage thing on wheels (with stoppers) so you could move it around at will.
    I don’t like anything too set in stone when it comes to furniture, i am a crazy person who will move entire rooms around in the middle of the night 😬

    Haha I am from Iowa and I used to be a swimmer. When we'd have outdoor morning swim practice, sometimes a duck that nested at the pool grounds would come in the pool with her babies and she'd nip at us. 😂 This duck would be swimming across the pool with all her babies while we're swimming laps and her little babies would try to get over the lane lines and struggled. So silly!

    You could have a pouffe style seat (on castors for easy moving) in your boutique room. I have an oversized one and I just love it. Because my closet is literally hard surfaces (as they all are) I had my "bench pouffe" upholstered in a fun plush material on the top and a colour coordinated material everywhere else.
    Maybe this is a silly question but, how do you reach the high shelves? Are they rotating?
    Anyhoooooo, the closet is going to be wonderful 😊😊😊
    Now I'm looking forward to seeing your balcony ☺
    Much love 💗💗💗💗💗

    • @thefoxyscentury

    Cosrx pimple patches really work! As soon as you feel a zit coming on, apply a patch overnight. It either disappears or never blooms. And if it does bloom, continue applying a patch and the zit is never as bad as it would have been. This is a “pry it out of my cold dead hands” product for me.

  • @B8NNIE
    @B8NNIE 2 года назад +2

    For the boutique room, consider replacing the swing door to a large panel of floor to ceiling sliding doors for the entrance that may also double as doors to the open shelving will give you the flexibility to change your backdrop quickly for filming.

    You’re hysterical. The duck in the pool story and your bewilderment was so funny. I love your closet configuration. Can’t wait to see it finished. The outdoor table set is really nice. Can’t believe it’s was found on Amazon. I was wondering if you’d consider doing another brush video. I purchased the BK Beauty foundation brush and love it. I bought some more Westman Atelier eyeshadows during the Sephora VIB sale and was looking for a good brush for them (Baby Blender or another recommendation?). I was also curious about the Angie Hot and Flashy brushes.

    Be picky!! I recently did my closet and totally underestimated the amount of space I needed for long dresses. Measure out everything! Put all of the long dresses together then measure. And then do this with the shorter dresses too. I totally wish I had done this and now still have to use a guest closet for longer coats and dresses.

    Michele even though it might take a couple hours it would make it easier to decide hanging sizes to measure what you have and take out what might hanging that's in drawers or other out on your bed so you get a better idea of what you need. Maybe have a friend help and make it a fun thing. This is what I've mentioned to clients not sure what space they need. Good luck! It will look beautiful 😍

    Michele, I think your closet areas will be wonderful! I have said this before, but your patio is my favorite. It seems so nice and tranquil. Your new additions are very nice as well. I kind of chuckled when you found the mallard in your pool. I have quite a bit of property and the deer just treat my property like it is a huge park. They stare me down as if to say, "Lady, get out of our park." I, in turn, stare them down as if to say, "No, this is not a park and is my property, and furthermore, if you eat my mother's crepe myrtles, you are in big trouble." I don't mind them eating my grass, however, when they start on my mother's crepe myrtles, it is time to go. Another great vlog.

    @dreicher 2 года назад

    LOL!! Ducks live all over in different climates depending on the breed. They are not aggressive like geese are. Just messy. We had a 4 foot gator in our pool last summer for a few days. He finally realized he didn't like sharing the backyard with humans so he left. For your closet, you simply need two measurements. Measure your existing clothing (on the hanger) in your existing garment groups (jackets, dresses, shirts, tanks etc). You do not need to measure every garment, just the longest or bulk of that grouping. You do not want them touching the bottom. Measure from the bottom of the garment, to the top of the garment pole THEN ADD the additional 4-6+ inches (whatever closet company configures) from the top of pole to the bottom of TOP shelf. This is the height you need for that overall group. You do not want them to touch the bottom. This will give you an idea if the 4 foot sections will work for your clothing. I hope this helps! Plus CC are super easy for them to revise if needed (at extra charge). Been there done that, LOL. What you chose looks really nice!!
