The DIY Munchkin Closet (an Ikea Hack Attack)

I love the convenience & excitement of big city living but space is always an issue.

The kiddo & her wardrobe had completely outgrown the small dresser that once oh-so-neatly stored her little clothes & accessories and my search for something larger (yet small enough to fit into the scant space available in her room) revealed nil, so…

I once again hit the As-Is section of Ikea & let my imagination take over.

I snagged our old Ikea Gorm shelf from the storage room and scored a Mulig clothing valet from the As-Is section

After painting the Gorm shelving unit blue I simply rearranged the shelves & removed the center wood slat from the top shelf to allow the valet enough space to peek through.

Then added a couple of old coffee table legs to the inside of the unit for more hanging space.

And popped some storage bins onto the shelves and the kiddo's fancy space saving closet was complete!
