Converting a Closet into a Private Nook

Total Time: 2 Days

Supplies:

• 1 comfy chair ($ )
• 4 crates or shelving low to the ground ($ )
• 1 writing supply table ($ )
• 2 knick knack shelves ($ )
• photos, collections, and calendar

Steps:

1. Clear out the entire room. This gives you a sense that the room is new and all your own.

2. Fill the walls first, to avoid having to bend over chair and table.




3. Move in the crates and fill the books. Add your collection on top or inside if you are a lover of something else.


4. Move in the chair to help you choose the best table for your supplies. If you are an artist, an easel/canvas and brushes, crafter with what you need to create.


5. Decorate to please your own tastes. I am a lover of all things Alaskan and that means moose and bears. I also love teddies and tins so sometimes I can incorporate my collections with two things at once...like tins with teddies or bears or moose, plates and wall hangings and more.

6. Create the space you love that is all your own.
7. Now, as you can see by the main photo, I made this all in a closet just 4.5' by 6'.
8. I hope this inspires someone to find a place you can close off the world and just be.

Good idea!

I have been a member of ThriftyFun for many, many years. I have never really commented. I love your posts Sandy. I find all your decorating ideas so inspirational. Every time I get my Thrifty Fun newsletters in and see a new post with your name it's like getting in a new magazine in the mail. I really look forward to it. I love your cozy hideaway.

Wow, wish I had a 4 1/2' x 6' closet! Lots of possibilities
