So I had a plan in mind. I drew out a closet design that I liked and showed it to David. He didn't care one way or theother. He won't be putting little baby laundry in said closet. I will.
I've been eyeing the Elfa systems by The Container Store. Love them, but just a teeny bit out of my price range. I've thought about building the shelving myself, but at 7 months pregnant it's probably not such a good idea. Enter Swoozie's. The one near me is going out of business. And they're selling all of their shelving. Score. I calculated how many feet of shelving I needed for my design and purchased their shelves. They even have a small lip so that items won't fall easily. Definitely a plus for the future when our little miss will be toddling around destroying everything in sight. I was going to cut the shelves myself. But my BFF said I wasn't allowed to use power tools at this point. (I don't get it?) So she got her husband to cut them down to size for me. Only 10 hours, a drill, a gazillion screws, and a sore back later I have a custom closet for my baby girl. It's nicer than my master closet. Sigh. Maybe one day I'll build one for us. But that would require cleaning out said closet. So maybe not.
I can't wait to fill those shelves with little baby things!
