Coming out of the Closet

A couple of weekends ago while I flew down to St Augustine with one of my besties I left my husband with a long honey do list.   The major thing on the list was to install bug's closets.

We have two closets in Bug's room which up to this point just had one shelf for hanging stuff on it.
We decided to make one of the closets a functional closet where we would keep closes, toys, etc and the other closet a storage closet to eventually keep the bins of clothes.  

So a couple weekends ago we head to HomeDepot to get the stuff we needed.  
We decided to move the self in one closet over to the other closet so it would have two selves and then buy a kit for bug's functional closet.  We looked at the kits- ranging anywhere from $55 dollars to $400 dollars.  After a short discussion we went with the $55 one because after all this is a closet we are talking about.  We picked up some white paint so Joe could paint the closets since they are all marked up from the previous owners- we opted for a gallon of cheap white paint which came in at $9.30.

So when we got to the register and the closet kit rang up $8.23- Joe and I looked at each other and decided today was our lucky day.  We headed home with paint and a closet set for less than $20!
Seriously how lucky are we!
I was worried it would be missing pieces or something- but everything was normal!
So last weekend while I was away
(because I have learned this is always the best way to let Joe do his projects)
Joe went to work on the closets.  


Closet the way it was previously-  Joe painting them white.


 Both closets while Joe was working on them..

Clemson gets a hold of a stuff animal.



Final functional closet.
All in all I was happy with our less than $20 project!
