Closet Room Tour || Blossoms & Beauty

Hi Everyone! 

Long time no chat! Today I want to share with you my closet. I am in my final year of college and this year I am living in a house (an old, icky, gross, college house) but, a house none the less. On top of that I live in the basement, surprisingly, it may be the best floor of the house. In the basement their are three rooms, two small ones and one large one. I live with three other girls and being as two of them live upstairs and the other lives in the big room downstairs I was able to have the two small rooms downstairs. So of course I transformed one of them into a huge walk-in closet and I am in love. 

To start off, above is an overview of my closet. I have a dresser and four clothes racks. The clothes racks that I purchased are actually from Fleet Farm and they were $10 each. I had meant to receive four from IKEA but my online purchase somehow got lost and I never received them. The racks are fairly standard with just one rail which can be adjusted to your desired height and on the bottom their are two horizontal poles to hold shoes. 

This grey dresser not only holds clothes but doubles as my vanity as I get ready in my closet in the mornings. The top two drawers have makeup and hair care items, three drawers have clothes, one drawer has candles, one is essentially just a junk drawer, and the final one has all my makeup bags and blowdryer in it. Above my dresser is my mirror which has a flower garland on it that I made and above is my monogram I DIYed with letters from Walmart.  

A week or so a go, I went through my racks, because they were packed and it looked so cluttered, and removed all of my more spring and summer colored and styled clothing and placed them in a drawer (pictured on the left). I only had one drawer to put all of those items so I had to maximize the space by folding my shirts like so. By doing this I opened up more space on my racks and made them look a fall and wintery. 

In the drawer pictured on the right I have leggings and other random pants I didn't want hanging up. 

  

On this first clothing rack I have all my dresses, long dresses on the right and then all my short dresses going from light to dark. As I mentioned I went through all my racks a week ago and at that time I also color coded the hangers on each rack. By making each rack have a set color of hangers I think it makes them look much more organized and took away some of the clutter. I am really happy with how the matching hangers look. 

In a bin besides the dress rack I have mittens and gloves because winter is slowly but surely coming and having them out gives me easy access to them. 

The next two racks are both dedicated to tops. On the left are all of my sweaters, sweatshirts, cardigans, and blazers and then on the right I have tank tops, t-shirts, long sleeves, and spirit jerseys.

My final clothing rack has a mix of items, their are pants, vests, and jackets on it.

Below each rack their are holders for shoes, as I stated before, and this is an example of them from below my pants and vests. Many of my shoes that are out have heels and I don't think they work all that well for them, only because the back doesn't reach the other horizontal pole in the back and as a result they sit down in the opening between the two poles. You can kind of see it with the booties. 

On the ends of each rack I hang up my bags. You can go back and see on each of the racks the purses I keep on them. 

If you noticed, above each rack I have five picture frames and all of them have a different Lilly Pulitzer print in them. I love Lilly Pulitzer and I wanted to bring some brightness and fun into my closet as well as having something to put up on the wall. I made these with 96 cent frames and old Lilly Pulitzer agenda pages. Super cheap and super adorable!

Over to the final corner of my closet is the actual closet to the room. I have a ruffled black curtain that is hung up, it is typically closed to hide my laundry. Inside I have a shoe rack that holds shoes that I either don't want to display or don't wear frequently. I also have my tights hanger and skirts hanging up behind the shoe rack. 

Along with the clothes and the shoes I keep my jewelry in here. I have a hanging jewelry holder full of bracelets, then on the wall I have necklaces, and the black box on the small dresser holds earrings as well as rings.

Right next to the closet I have my full length mirror which, when open, is hidden behind my door. I have all my sunglasses hanging up and tassels hanging above them. I hung the sunglasses up mostly just to add something to the plain white walls. 

Coming full circle and back to my door I have a few scarves hanging up and two tote bags on the door handle. 

I hope you all enjoyed taking a look around my closet. It is my favorite room in the house, I found myself just hanging out in their the other day. It truly turned out better then I imagined it would and I'm going to be so sad when I move out in the spring.
