How to Build a Closet

Күн бұрын

When we purchased our home, we knew we wanted to add a closet to this front room and now we finally have! We love the way this closet transformed the room and are very excited that guests now have a place to hang their clothes.
All of the materials and tools I used for the projects are linked below!
This project is sponsored by my friends at The Home Depot. From versatile buying options, tool rentals, and thousands of how-to videos, The Home Depot has the tools and materials you need to keep building and get more done. Check out their Tool Rental and How To guides resources linked below!

Dude, nicely executed! One of the best add-on framing to an existing room. This is the exact same way I do it and believe me, I’ve seen some pretty shady ones throughout my career. This one by far is done simply right! It’s obviously not new construction but it’s actually done right.

@@carolinebarley To be fair it's pretty damn hard to do this alone when you don't have expertise in building things, anyone to advise you, help you and you don't have all the tools. I've built stuff and renovated rooms on my own (as a woman too) and it's a hassle and takes a looong time and many days of patience! Keep running back and forth to the stores almost daily because things don't work out the way you want, things you didn't know you were supposed to do, and it ends up being 3x as expensive as planned. So I too would love to have a partner who's into this kind of things!
