    Designer tip, you never want things on the same plane so that it gives visual variety and height. So really one of the shelves should be higher than the bookshelf to “extend the wall” and give the visual queue that you have high ceilings. So those were a good height! Lifting things off the ground also helps reduce the “visual weight” from the ground and feel less cluttered. When in doubt, go up! Especially with high ceilings. Hope this helps anyone who reads it ❤

    Great job maximizing that small closet! Your room is really coming together.

    Awesome job! Have you thought about mounting your ukulele and guitar on one of your walls to use as decor and that would free up even more space in your closet! 😊

    You need a cordless rechargeable light or a tap light in the closet😊

  • @amlambert

    You should put a battery operated puck light in your closet - you can stick it on the of the wall so you can just click it on and off .. or there are battery operated light switch..etc…

    Your bedroom is coming along nicely. Love the green bedding and pillows. You did a great job on your closet. Utilizing all of that upper space in the closet was a game changer.

    Just a little idea; in the little quirky corner I'd put shelves all the way up, put all your books on it and get rid of that bookshelf

  • @caitlinhope6276

    Coat closet solve - If you have room for it, maybe a free standing wardrobe closet in the shared living space for all of you? Great for coats & shoes, etc.

  • @suelyons531
    @suelyons531 8 месяцев назад +7

    Good job! I had a closet like that and I popped the folding door off, put it under my bed and put up a lightweight curtain with a tension rod. It just made access to everything easier. Just a thought!

    • @alexiseldredge
      @alexiseldredge  8 месяцев назад +2

      love this idea, if I get annoyed with the door I might do it!

    • @simonehickling5776
      @simonehickling5776 8 месяцев назад +6

      I love this idea. I'd put another curtain pole up at the same height and matching curtains as your window curtains. It will balance out the area and draw your eyes up, making the area less cluttered.
      Sorry, I didn't want to be a pain, I'm just passionate about makeovers.

    videos with cats are a bonus! I like the floating shelves but my cat is a climber. nothing is safe but at least I dont have to dust high places anymore. the little nook with the single plant is crying out for shelves.

  • @debicannon4756

    Now you need to get a small folding footstool so you can easily reach the stuff on the higher shelves without having to get the full ladder.

    Have you ever thought about getting an ikea freestanding wardrobe unit and putting it in your living room as a coat/bag/shoe closet for you and your roommates? They’re not that expensive at all and can hold tons! You could do a pax unit and customize it or something like a brimnes.

    • @emm7528

    @LeslieCzwakiel-r9j 8 месяцев назад +1

    I did not know if there are lights in your closet but maybe put some lights up where the new stuff went...like those that go under cabinets. Other than that, I think it looks like the closet organizing went well.

    Your room is really coming along very nicely. Yes, a beautiful, large print that you will enjoy looking at when you enter the room is a great idea.

  • @debredhead9199
    @debredhead9199 8 месяцев назад +2

    The framed print will look great over your bed, it has a lot of the same green as your sheets and duvet. Don’t hang it to high though. The bottom of the pic should be about 8” max over the headboard. If you decide you don’t like it over the bed, it would look great on your heater wall also as the pink in it pairs well with your cat pic. It would look good over your small dresser also.

  • @klouisedraws
    @klouisedraws 8 месяцев назад +1

    You could even hang 2 prints above your bed like the ones you had in your old apt side by side

  • @robynscott7145
    @robynscott7145 8 месяцев назад +1

    Love the closet organization. Your room is so white. Maybe put up removable wallpaper on the wall above your bed but not above the radiator. I also think it would look amazing to put floating shelves in the nook where the radiator is from the radiator clear up. You could put your books and decor on those shelves and free up space by getting rid of the bookshelf or put it in the living room. You would need to remove the shelves that you just put in, they will not work with the shelves above the radiator. You should get at least 1 live plant, a pothos for your room, they clean the air and look great. It might look good to wallpaper the window wall too.

  • @Ann-cx3dd
    @Ann-cx3dd 8 месяцев назад +1

    It looks so good! And, it also looks so cozy. : ). I LOVE all of your storage ideas for your closet - - great job on that!
    The only thing I kept thinking was, the cute bookshelf next to your dresser adds a lot of visual clutter in that spot. What about in a corner again ( maybe where you tall lamp is ) ( caddy corner ) and your white dresser moved to the left a little. I don't know know, just a thought........ anyhoo, looks GREAT! 🙂🙂🙂

  • @Jewellene
    @Jewellene 8 месяцев назад

    You've probably read enough advice, but I think some peel-and-stick wallpaper on that little nook behind the radiator would look nice. I love that you're gonna get a larger print behind your bed! I'd also put two more shelves above the original two. Same stack. And I'd put a mirror to the ceiling above your standing bookshelf. 🥰 so fun!

  • @aiyashirgaliyeva5292

    Hey!
    Maybe there is an option to put this bigger print you have on top of the bookshelf, so it gives height to the room, and will look more balanced 🤍
    Otherwise, I love how you used all the higher space in closet, so smart!
