I wish we could do a complete overhaul on our room and bathroom to create more closet space, but that is not really in the cards right now. We did take the carpet and vinyl out of the bathroom and put in tile. This is the before pic...
Brian also replaced the faucets, made some shelves and put a pretty border around the mirror to break it up some. After all, I can only handle so much refection at 6:00 a.m. We are not really sure what to do with the lights since they are now not spaced evenly, but I guess we will figure that out one of these days.
You can't really see it well in the photo, but on the left wall under the picture we put up a piece of wood with pegs all along it for hanging towels, swimsuits, etc. I'm loving that!
Now if I'm keeping it real...this mess of a closet is what you would see if you were to turn around. Whoever invented sliding closet doors should be locked up in a tiny jail cell with other people who invent awful things...like that hard, sealed plastic packaging that is impossible to open without coming close to losing a finger. Or the person who invented those stickers that make it impossible to open a DVD.
So anyway, these doors just won't stay on track, so they have been leaning up against the wall for about 10 months.
I was all excited when I found this solution on Pinterest (below) and thought I would do (or have Brian do) something similar minus the barn-like hinges. But apparently we can't do this because we don't have the right kind of door jambs or something.
So...what to do. What to do? I'm tired of these leaning doors in my way people so please give me some ideas. :)
Jill, what about two old screen doors? You could paint them bright white (screen and all) so the inside of the closet wouldn't shine through--- Remember how they would look when people tried to spruce up old doors and the screen would get almost clogged up with paint?
