Hi Everyone, happy Monday (evening)! From time to time, as I come across cool DIYs, I will feature them on my blog. So with that being said, meet Ajah! Ajah is a hair stylist extraordinaire, fashionista and avid DIYer. Like all fashionistas, she was faced with the common closet dilemma – a lot of clothing and a less than ideal closet set up. Check out our interview below, as well as her before and after pictures and stay on the look out for her DIY blog!
Question: What made you decide to update your closet setup?
Ajah: Being that I shop so much, I needed more room in my closet to fit all my clothing. (I know this sentiment all too well lol!)
Question: Where did you look for inspiration for your closet design?
Ajah: My inspiration for my closet design came from YouTube, Instagram and two of my favorite HGTV shows, Fixer Upper (with Chip and Joanna Gaines) and Property Brothers.
Question: Where did you buy the closet system?
Ajah: I bought the closet system from Walmart (Closet Maid) for ~$13 and I found the white shelves at Home Depot.
Question: Was it easy to install and how long did it take you to complete?
Ajah: This unit was very easy to install and took about 45 minutes to put together.
Question: Did you have help or were you able to do it yourself?
Ajah: I didn’t have any help, but you wouldn’t need any as it was very easy to put together.
Question: Now that your closet is finished, do you feel like you were able to fit more pieces inside?
Ajah: With this DIY closet unit, I am now able to fit a lot more clothing, as well as coats, shoes, jewelry, storage bins, scarves and even some decorative items. It fits everything!
BEFORE: The typical closet set up, a single bar to hang an entire wardrobe – ahhh! |
An almost completed closet redo! Lots of storage space with this shelving unit. |
AFTER: The finished product! There are places to put shoes/boots, bags, clothes and more! |
