The poor fifth kid. She’s been kicked to the cupboard. Well her closet has at least! This was my 1 day cupboard to baby girl closet make-over. The picture quailty is lacking, and the details are still being worked out, but I thought I’d throw the idea out there to all of you who have many people in a house and are seriously lacking closet space!
First I gave the entire cupboard a coat of white paint!
Secondly, I took the shelves out and added this spring-loaded curtain rod.
Third, I added 4 coat hooks to the back and sides of the closet (I think I found them in the Target $1 area for $2.50.
I found these pink baskets at Target for $2.50/basket. They hold bottles, safety devices, and lotions/shampoos.
I added a $1 store mirror and some ribbon to hang flowers and elastic headbands on…..ok, I might have went a little overboard on making flowers, but she’s so blad….they are just precious on her!
Covered push-pin boards with a picture, foot print and other accesories. I eventually would like to get/make some cute push-pins!
This sliver pail holds other elastic headbands.
I used some gray patterned contact paper for the bottom. I love this contact paper. I wish I could find more!
I’m using this paper to line the drawers with.
I somehow erased the picture that had the bottom part of the cupboard. Luckily there are 4 drawers underneath to hold shirts, pants, blankets, ect…
This are stacked pedistal bowls that hold her shoes and socks.
This is in a hallway, so it’s hard to take decent pics, but you get the just of it

Most of what you'll see here are ways to live inexpensively, and how I put those into practice with my constant need to renovate houses.
We are a military family of 7, so houses must come big and inexpensive, and made beautiful as we go, turning what most would see as trash, into treasure.
Thanks for stopping by, stay awhile and make yourself at home. I hope you enjoy my ideas. 















I worried you were going to leave out the stacked pedestal bowls-my favorite! anlthough I do really like the contact paper too.
