3 Ways to Fake a Walk-In Wardrobe
Instant Carrie Bradshaw vibes.
If crammed-in clothes have you longing for better storage, rethink your bedroom layout and make room for a spacious walk-in wardrobe. Start in an area that's easy to access, then try one of these clever combinations that prove ample storage is possible, no matter your square footage.
#1: Curtain Panels & a Garment Rack
Create an easy walk-in wardrobe behind your bed with curtain panel dividers and garment rack storage. Firstly, pull your bed out a few feet from the wall and hang curtain panels in place of a traditional headboard. Then centre a clothes rack behind the curtains and mount wall shelves for extra storage.
In an under-used corner, block out a closet by positioning a tall armoire a few feet out from the wall. Then, place a low bookcase inside the space (great for stacking shoes and bags) and hang a mirror above for storage that doubles as a dressing table.
If your space allows, bring in a high, lofted bed and dedicate the area underneath to a walk-in-closet. Secure rods between the bedposts for clothes and hang hooks on the back wall to keep everyday items such as coats, belts and bags within reach. Complete the space with a full-length mirror and stackable floor shelves.
