My dd's closet is finished and I have pictures to share. I'm horrible at remembering to take "before" pictures, but trust me when I say that it was cluttered and only had one shelf and one rail.

Notice the two Komplement laundry bags - thank you to my Ikea Angels! Because of two generous angels I had everything I needed. The pullout birchpant rail is discontinued as well, but that was leftover from my son's closet and I never got around to returning it. Thank goodness! (We have it on the lower side so she can reach it (she's 6). We'll raise it up as she gets older.



(Yes, that's a pink Flip-n-Fold!)

Fabulous! That looks quality all the way...it will last for years, even with kids in and out every day.

I love the red sparkly shoes...my DD (age 11) still tries to try them on every time we see them in the store!

Absolutely beautiful!

What's a Flip-n-fold?

Yeah yeah yeah! That looks fabulous.

How big is your daughter's closet? I'm jealous - doubly jealous since she's now organized.

Very small - right around 6 feet. It fit 3 of the 19 inch frames, plus one modified frame that we cut to about 11 inches wide.

I forgot to mention about dress storage - right now her dresses fit in the rail sections that are there now. As she grows and needs to store a few dresses, we'll take out the lower shelves in the modded frame (shelves hold toys right now), and that'll be her long hanging section. We put a modified shorter birch rail at the top of it.

It's a neat little contraption that makes it fun and easyto fold shirts. It encourages her to put away her own laundry!(yeah!)

Looks really nice!! I can't believe they did away with the pull-out laundry bags and the pant rails. What were they thinking? Are they going to replace it with something else later?!:?

It looks really nice! I'm still deciding on my closets, so it helps to see someone else's.

:?Those laundry bags! White elephants when they were around, our store would sell about one per month. Now that they are gone, it seems everyone has decided they were a good idea after all! And they were. I miss them too.

No plans for a replacement I'm afraid. Though, on the topic of the trouser racks, at least the new champagne ones have the runners from the birch rack, rather than the dreadful old plastic wheels from the grey metal.
