Six tips for creating your dream closet
Creating a picturesque closet in
your home may be expensive, but it doesn’t mean you can’t have a spot that’s
functional, fabulous and beautiful with a small budget. You can turn your
wardrobe into space of your dreams with the following doable tips and tricks.
1. Create ambience
through colour
Blush pink and
dusty jewel tone colours are wonderful. Paired together in a closet, they are
classic choice. The muted palette is versatile enough to pair with any type of
clothing and accessories, yet doesn’t feel stark or boring compared to an
all-white scheme. The fresh palette makes a closet feel more sophisticated,
while also fostering a tranquil, calming atmosphere.
2. Invest in
statement seating
The easiest way
to upgrade a room comes down to a simple solution: great seating. The addition
of a stool can take a dull closet into a place of purpose. Whether working with
a chair or a classic lounge, a tasteful seat adds instant glamour, while
serving as a perfect place to discard unwanted outfits.
3. Put it on display
To put your best
outfit forward, use a variety of tools to keep your options readily available. You
can opt for a fashionable dresser or wardrobe to keep things organized instead
of utilitarian-style baskets and bins. If you’re searching for a modern way to
keep organized and display your clothes and accessories, decorative ladders are
a simple design trick to easily arrange items to contemplate outfits and looks.
Additionally, its important to keep smaller items clutters-free. You can hang a
couple of S-hooks and attach a wire basket and you have an easy catch-all place
for your sunglasses and other fashion accessories. Longer items such as scarves
and belts, can easily hang from the rungs. And don’t forget to incorporate a
full-length mirror so that you can take in the fabulous ensemble you just
created.
4. Add in artwork
Let your
personal style shine through! You can use artwork or framed pictures to get you there or at least provide some
inspiration in the process. You can hang a mood board with your favourite outfits
to get your creative juices flowing. Room dividers and screens are also a
source of artistry, often displaying beautiful scroll work or carvings that add
dimension to a closet space.
5. Lighting, lighting,
lighting!
Lighting sets
the tone for your space and highlights the outfits you try on, Track lighting
works wonderfully to illuminate dark corners discretely. Chandeliers are a
great overhead light source that also add style and glamour to the closet and
task lighting are equally important in providing ample illumination along
dressers. Regardless of the type you pick, be sure it stays true to the glam
space you’re envisioning.
6. Step it up
Take your closet
to new heights – literally. A stylish footstool is an easy way to reach the
higher-placed items in your closet’s storage. It can also be used to stack
leftover clothing or as an extra pop of pattern in your space. Either way, consider
it the multi-functional accessory your closet needs.
