Family Closet



While the girls were busy with the apples, the men were busy working on our family closet. having 6 children, with one on the way, creates some interseting storage issues for clothes. Our closets are just way to small to accomodate 3 children in each bedroom. So in August, we turned our spare bedroom into a children's closet. All their clothes were moved in there and the dressers moved out. The clothes that were in dressers are now in bins on shelves. Here is a before picture of the room:



The first set of hanging clothes racks we bought was on rollers and couldn't handle the volume of hanging clothes. They broke within a week. So the men bought some nice shelves for the clothes. Here they are working hard installing them.







The room is now finished and looks great. All the children can reach their clothes and the ironing board can even remain up for those quick touch ups! The biggest benefit to having a familycloset is that all the laundry is folded in there and is immediately put away. No more piles on the sofa or procrastinating in putting laundry away.

Thanks Honey and Justin for doing such a great
job!
