Bedroom Update

We're getting tired of sleeping in the living room.

Things are still progressing along on the Hobo-Chic Project, but a little slower than usual, mostly because of this shiny little face, but also because our head contractor is working full-time and a bit!

We will continue on in our plans though. The bedroom walls are primed, next up the ceiling, and I got a very special project to work on.

Namely the master closet and closet organizer. Huzzah, and I knew exactly what furry helper would help me out.

Err... well, he tried. 

Our closet got a big jump on it's former self by us removing the Front Hall closet on the other side and moving our closet into the corner of the room. This allows a lot more room for the door and a little nook.  From our clothing situation it looks that we need one high bar (6' or so) for long hanging items such as dresses and suits. We both like to hang out hoodies (no small feat in my case), and I also like to hang my pants, this means we probably need 2 other short bars. We like the idea of shelves or drawers in the middle, although we're not really sure what they would be for at this point.

So, to the Interweb.... lots of closet kits available....

From homedepot.ca, Martha Stewart Living 4-8'  $159.99

From homedepot.ca, John Louis Home Deluxe, $799

A custom closet, I envisioned was about the same price range ($400+). So back to the drawing board, or back to what is currently in J's closet perhaps.

A couple of options:

• Ana White's Build a Simple Closet Organzier Plans and DIY it
• Wait for this piece to go on sale
• Throw everything in Rubbermaids and call it a day
  
  PS. I really like the Canadian Tire's website feature that you can put a Sale Alert on an item - how smart is that?
