Gear Closet

Uh, our entry way closet was a disaster for a really long time. It had a door to nowhere (literally, the folks before us just built a wall behind it and didn’t bother to remove the door that opened into the space) and it did a poor job of housing a lot of things: cleaning supplies, coats, and outdoor gear. I had a dream of converting into a functional gear room. Then, over winter break, I got to work. I found some great outdoor signage at Michael’s and some black and white buffalo check peel and stick wallpaper from Target. It took a bit of work to fit a closet into the door opening that wasn’t plumb in any way, but taking the door out in the first place was easier than we thought. I am so proud of this new space!

I always make sure to apologize for my woodworking catastrophes to future owners.
