I love your project videos! I’m 70 year old woman who wasn’t allowed to take woodshop back in the olden days in high school so I’ve been trying to learn since then and your videos help especially the master closet reno. I watched the project video several times, planned my closet, had the basic cuts on the birch plywood cut at Home Depot, bought the Kreg Jig 720 and got going! Still have to prime and paint but it came out great! I hated those wire shelves, now I love my closet. Thanks for the inspiration!
Most school students don’t even know what wood-shop is now because they have done away with them completely. So you have something in common now with every student graduating today.
Wanted to say thanks for the thought behind all this. It’s hard enough to make a project yet you did it, filmed it, edited it, had the script, had links to the tools, and dimensions. My family now has a beautiful closet that looks pretty similar to yours. It’s been completed for a few months but wanted to take the time to thank you.
Can't tell you how much I love seeing more women in the woodworking field! So inspiring and motivating! You, Diyhuntress, and Diywife have all equally inspired me to do all of my home renovations myself! 🎉❤ (plus my husband is not handy at all 😅)
Ok just saying, this channel is amazing. She has videos for specific issues/ projects ugh so amazing. I instantly subscribed ❤ Thank you for your hard work - ❤from beginner woodworker & active house renovator
This closet is outstanding. You certainly added a ton of storage and you also designed the closet units in such a way to make them visually attractive. It's really a beautiful space when you first look inside the closet. You should be proud of this build. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks so much! I’m so excited to finally have a place to organized and store my clothes and shoes. Our last closet was just two cabinets and it was hard to organize well. Thanks so much for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed!!
OK, we're psyched to take this on as a project. I'm fed up with our walk in closet... it looks like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon! It's about a two feet narrower than yours, but, we'll figure out the sizing. BTW, I love your American Red Cross sweatshirt... I retired from the ARC after 20 years -- they're near and dear to my heart! Lucy looks great... but seriously, she needs a RED collar! Beautiful job as always! Thanks for bringing us along!
That’s awesome! Happy building!! Also, I give blood every 8 weeks as often as I can. That’s awesome you retired from the Red Cross. They do some really great work. Lucy has been through all the colors 😂. We like to switch it up. She has had red, purple, blue, black/white stripes. We got the military green one with Velcro spot for patches but haven’t got her a patch yet. We wanted an American flag but haven’t found one to fit it yet 😂 may have to make our own. Anyway, thanks so much for watching! I appreciate it!
During summer, I did our closet which is about the same size and layout as yours. I wish I saw this video. Yours is simpler to build and look so much better.
Great closet build! I love how you say this was super simple. It still is not for me yet, but hopefully as I do more I will be able to say “this was simple!” Glad you stayed safe from those terrible tornadoes.
I think losing the door instantly made this room look double in size haha. I remove a lot of doors in every house we move into. I hate doors 😂 And also, sock monkey hat was safely tucked away during the move. I’d be devastated if I lost it 😉😂😂
Great piece. I love the floating boxes. It looks a lot better then shelf pins and plain shelf’s. The boxes and non flush drawers all add some depth and character. Good job. 🤙🤙
Wow.. that was like perfect timing. We are about to get are bathroom and closet remodeled and I am going to do the closet system myself. That came out really nice great job.
That is such a HUGE transformation! You make everything look so easy and looks so custome! Fantastic work as usual. I pray for the ones that were affected by the tornados in your area and so thankful that you are ok. Hope you have a nice holiday season.
Thank you! I promise it was easy to put together…just a lot of pieces and edge banding haha. Thank you for your prayers. My little town could use them…it’s pretty devastated. I hope you and yours have a merry Christmas!
Perfect. I loved this video: I have been looking at pre-made closet organizers online and they are generally hideous, cheesy-looking, and WAY expensive. Yours are beautiful. I much prefer wood, don't care whether it's finished, but I do generally use a few applications of tung oil and it adds a subtle, beautiful protective finish. I hope I can copy what you've done (I am not fond of making drawers!).
I really like the look of the"box" shelves. I would never have thought about that but it really does add a nice touch to the project. I wish I could have watched this about 18 years ago when I installed shelving in our closet. Yours looks much better!
I love your videos! Ive been away about a year and had a hard time remembering the name of the channel, but I found you and subscribed to all your socials. Good to be back, keep up the great work.
That was a lot of work but the closet looks fantastic! You did a great job of making and explaining your methods of construction. Thanks for sharing this.
If you never make a mistake, then you must have never made anything. That's a paraphrased quote from someone... not sure who. This video has me rethinking how I did my wife's closet room. This is much better than what I originally did. Nice job!
Wow! Your projects are great. I'm going to build the shelving unit with the drawers. I love your attention to accuracy in the cuts and assembly. It is apparent.
You are improving the quality and complexity of your builds video after video, my compliments for your projects! This in particular looks very awesome, it don’t seem the same room showed before!!! Brava!
Yeah, the aftermath looks worse in person. It hit my hometown pretty bad and it’s just such a sad situation. Breaks my heart. I’m thankful to still be here.
- Just a FANTASTIC project ! ! ! Completed beautifully, masterfully done. Thanx 4 sharing that showed some flaws that are part of growing in one's art. VERY inspiring. Awesome ! ! !
Thank you! You've given me the information to redo my kitchen cabinet fronts. With these Kreg templates, I think just about anyone can do these improvements!
Shara, you really transformed that closet from almost an eyesore to a really functional and beautiful closet space. With all your clothes in boxes on the floor I'd look past a few minor and fixable mistakes as well. So glad your relationship with Kreg is growing. I have a few of there tools on my wish list primarily because of things I've seen you do in your video's. So worried about the storms in your area. Stay safe! Wishing you Happy Holidays. Thanks for Sharing!
Thanks so much! This does both look and function ten times better than what was here before. I’m so happy with how it turned out. Kreg is a great company for both its tools and its resources. I truly appreciate what they’re doing and happy to be able to partner with them. I hope you and yours have a great holiday as well!
The closet looks fantastic! It was a big project and you made it look amazing with your mix of shelving, drawers, and hanging rods. I will keep this design in mind if I decide to take on a similar project. Keep up the great work!
Very cool. It's always fun to watch your builds. Mistakes always going to happen and finding a work around for them is the mark of a professional so everyone is going to run into those for sure. Regardless, nice work.
Thank you so much! My dad always says the difference between a professional and an amatuer is that a professional knows how to cover up their mistakes haha. They'll still make them either way. They're just part of the process :)
I continue to be so impressed by the beautiful and functional things you can whip up from just a few sheets of plywood! Very well done. So sorry about the awful weather in your neck of the woods. Take care of yourself and Danny (and Lucy!) and have a blessed Christmas.
Thank you so much! I know a lot of people don’t like plywood but I’d be lost without it 😂 I appreciate you watching and wish you and yours a very merry Christmas!
Ply beats the heck out of the cheap pressed wood/MDF most purple buy from big box stores or Walmart/ Target. And you make it look so good, regardless of the project. Love your builds!
I like the shelf boxes, instead of just installing shelves. It adds a little style. The extra shelf pins, that you said were a mistake? No, those were extra support for heavy items, lol. Great build, looks really good.
Haha right…well said 😉 I totally did that on purpose for the heavy stuff 😂😂 In seriousness though, thank you for watching and I’m really glad you enjoyed it!
I want to build a wardrobe built in in the space of the 3 door standard closet. I love how you made the boxes for the shelves, it gives a nice dimension.
I too want to Thank you, Thank you, and…. I will be taking on a closet organizer myself and will be using Kreig system. I know you made some things simplified but I will be looking up your other “how too”.
Phenomenal build Shara! I enjoyed the whole process. Glad you didn't get blown away with the storms. It was pretty bad here in Missouri too. Side note I love and want that hat... lol
Glad your safe in MO! The tornado did a lot of damage going right through our town. So sad. But anyway, thanks for watching and I’m glad you love the sock monkey hat 😂 it’s my favorite!
Love your channel. You really do a good job of showing how approachable these large projects can be. Anybody nervous about attempting large builds should definitely check out this channel.
@@WoodshopDiaries it's my pleasure. Your channel's awesome. Enjoying watching you shop come together and looking forward to the cool projects that come out of it in the future.

You are amazing! Im glad you didn't let anything stop you from getting the closet you want. I hope I'm building things in my 70s too.
Thank you for this. I’m encouraged now. 💕

I legit want to live in your closet. It’s so nice! You make me want to customize every closet in my house!
That's the thing when you build this wardrobe, and it's not boring!! Love it!
I also love how much dimension you added with the different depths of things. That really makes it incredibly cool visually.
Thank you!! I’m glad you noticed! Adding different depths allowed it to not be boring, but to keep the build super simple.
You know i’m a fan of your videos, big fan. I had a request. Can you do an episode on tips and tricks for making everything square?
Those floating boxes are awesome! Fantastic job!
Thanks so much! They’re probably my favorite part haha. So simple!

Awesome! I hope you love them as much as I do! 🙌
Love your builds. So glad you were safe from the tornadoes. I meant to post that last week but forgot.

Monkey hat is my favorite! 😂 it’s the only reason I kind of enjoy the cold weather haha
You literally post a project at the perfect time. Appreciate you.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed and I appreciate you watching!
I know I say this every Video, but this is awesome! Glad you are safe in your neck of the woods!
You’re so kind. Thank you!! I appreciate you watching!
Lovely. I like the unfinished look and I love the box shelving. Something about it seems modern and timeless at the same time.
these pocket holes makes work very easy , good work 👍
I love the cubbbies housing pants in the opening monologue on the left. Great visual!
During summer, I did our closet which is about the same size and layout as yours. I wish I saw this video. Yours is simpler to build and look so much better.
Hey, as long as it works for you and your space, be proud of it! 🙌🙌

Great closet build! I love how you say this was super simple. It still is not for me yet, but hopefully as I do more I will be able to say “this was simple!” Glad you stayed safe from those terrible tornadoes.
If you look big picture and think of it as literally just piecing boxes together, it really is pretty simple. You got this!!
Looks great! I plan to build my own master closet built ins, but also replace the linen and coat closets with built in cabinets. ❤
You did an excellent job on the console and Walk in Closet
You keep making projects or improvemrnts that have been on my to-do list! I love it, gives me inspiration and more confidence to tackle them.
I’m so glad you’re enjoying the projects! And even more glad you can get inspiration from them!
That closet looks amazing, and somehow twice as big in the after shots. And thank goodness sock monkey hat didn't get lost in the move!
