$100 Room Challenge | Week 3: Empty Closet (and I Picked a Paint!)

Not much happened this weekend for the $100 Room Challenge. I was able to clean out all the tools and supplies, which is way more than I thought it would be, and find some paint to use on the walls. Let's jump in to the extremely short and unsatisfying post.

Week 1: The Befores
Week 2: The Plans




I had some left over paint from when I did the master bedroom makeover. It's a custom mix of Behr's Snow Fall, to me it's the perfect white! I thought about a dark closet but decided against it because there is no light in there, the closest one is around the corner or in the kitchen.

  

I also went to Home Depot to get the supplies for the shelves. I'm doing the same thing I did in our hall closet makeover and just staining 12" pine boards.

 

Of course, as soon as we got the dresser out of the hall, I filled it back up with tools and work buckets. The rest of the closet contents were spread out on the dining room table. Having everything out where I can see it will help me sort through what goes back into the closet.


Next week is the last progress week until the reveal on the 30th. This weekend I'll be painting and cutting the shelves. Are you following along with everyone?

    White is always a good choice and makes everything look fresh and new. Looking forward to seeing your closet when it's all complete.

    Love that you showed us what your home looks like with all the stuff piled up! Isn't that always the case, though. It's a complete mess before it's not? I'm looking forward to seeing my first tool closet.

      Haha agreed! I think as bloggers we can get tied up with pretty before and afters and sometimes forget to show how projects really go. Thanks!

    I so wish I had an extra closet in my house that I could use for this kind of storage. I get tired of trekking down the the garage.
