Over the weekend my dad came back down to Dallas with the newly built closet structure and we got to work.
A quick shot of the before as a reminder of what we were working with:
The first thing we had to tackle was setting up the center shelving that would also serve as the anchor for the side shelves and clothes rods.
We also had to pry off the old boards that were holding up the one long rod we had before. This also caused some holes in the sheetrock which we ended up having to patch and spackle over.
Once the center shelves and side shelves were up we set out to paint the entire unit and the part of the side wall we repaired. The closet took about 3 coats, 4 in a few places.
Then it was time to measure and cut the metal closet rod down to size for our three separate rods.
And finally, bring in the clothes.
What a huge difference. While it is still a bit of a struggle to fit both Chase and my clothes in there, it is much better than the single bowing rod we had before. And it is SO pretty and organized.
