Often seen as a way to showcase the variety of beautiful handbags, shoes and clothing one owns, a walk-in closet or dressing room is one of those spaces that screams extravagance and elegance. While you certainly don’t need to own an impressive selection of designer items to create a spacious closet in your home, it doesn’t hurt to have a desire to keep your belongings in a tidy, if not elegant, space.<\/p>\n
If you’re thinking of turning a guest room into a haven for handbags, scarves, sweaters, jewelry and the like, read on for seven steps to creating the walk-in closet of your dreams.<\/p>\n
1. General Decorating<\/strong> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.0.11″][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.0.11″][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/continuum-lifestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/01-min-3-scaled.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bb01-min\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ custom_margin=\u00bb||0px||false|false\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb10px\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb|||5px|false|false\u00bb]<\/p>\n Mirrors, plenty of storage space and a sleek look make it a cozy dressing room<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ header_4_text_color=\u00bb#000000″ header_4_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb header_5_text_color=\u00bb#474747″ header_5_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb]<\/p>\n 2. Quality furniture<\/strong><\/p>\n Built-in closets from a reputable company that will create custom furniture for you will ensure that your room looks as stylish as the items it contains.<\/p>\n Doors are usually left out of the equation, but if you can’t rely on yourself to keep your clothes neat and coordinated on a consistent basis, you may want to incorporate some doors, but only if you have enough space. A dresser should also be included, and you will need to think about the proportions of space you will need, i.e., if you have a lot of shoes and want them all displayed, you will need more shelves.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/continuum-lifestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-min-1-scaled.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bb02-min\u00bb align=\u00bbcenter\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ custom_margin=\u00bb||0px||false|false\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb10px\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb|||5px|false|false\u00bb]<\/p>\n Opt for soft, integrated lighting and include a seating area.<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ header_4_text_color=\u00bb#000000″ header_4_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb header_5_text_color=\u00bb#474747″ header_5_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb]<\/p>\n 3. Flooring<\/strong><\/p>\n In general, you’ll want the tone of the floor to match the furniture to keep with the theme of keeping the decor calm to showcase your belongings. You can match wood furniture with hardwood floors for a really clean, crisp look or keep it cozy underfoot with a comfortable rug or carpet, either way, don’t overlook the floor as it really ties the whole room together.<\/p>\n 4. Lighting<\/strong><\/p>\n As with any room in the house, lighting should be carefully considered and you can have a little fun when it comes to your walk-in closet. Overhead spotlights are a great way to do this and will free up space so you can go high with the furniture without lamps getting in the way. Make them dimmable to create ambiance and opt for a central light feature, such as a statement chandelier for a glam spot, as well as lighting built into the furniture to make your clothes and accessories shine.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/continuum-lifestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-min-4-scaled.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bb03-min\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ custom_margin=\u00bb||0px||false|false\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb10px\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb|||5px|false|false\u00bb]<\/p>\n Intelligent storage solutions, color coordination and orderly maintenance are key<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ header_4_text_color=\u00bb#000000″ header_4_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb header_5_text_color=\u00bb#474747″ header_5_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb]<\/p>\n 5. Somewhere to sit<\/strong><\/p>\n A cushioned ottoman, a cozy chair, a modern bench: if you have the space, it’s certainly worth including a cozy place to sit, and if you don’t, you can always have a nook built into the wall to integrate with the furniture. This is where you can make a style statement and pose while consulting what winning outfit you’re going to put together that day.<\/p>\n 6. Mirrors<\/strong><\/p>\n Every dressing room needs mirrors, and a full-length mirror is a must, while at the very least, a smaller version placed on your dressing table should also be included. This is your haven, so make sure you have the most flattering lighting around your mirrors so you feel beautiful at all times.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/continuum-lifestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-min-1-scaled.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bb04-min\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ custom_margin=\u00bb||0px||false|false\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb10px\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb|||5px|false|false\u00bb]<\/p>\n It is highly recommended to keep your dressing room organized, color-coordinated and clutter-free.<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ header_4_text_color=\u00bb#000000″ header_4_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb header_5_text_color=\u00bb#474747″ header_5_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb]<\/p>\n 7. Smart storage and display<\/strong><\/p>\n Once the room is put together, of course, you’ll need to add your belongings, and it’s highly recommended to keep it organized, color-coordinated and clutter-free. Arrange your clothes so that longer items are together and shorter items are placed side by side and keep shoes neatly displayed, you could make small displays of complementary handbags and shoes and color-coordinated scarves on a shelf.<\/p>\n Smart storage solutions are key here so that items like sunglasses, jewelry, hats and the like are easy to access, but stored safely. Be sure to keep the room tidy and you’ll certainly have a space you’ll enjoy being in.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb][et_pb_button button_url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/continuum-lifestyle.com.co\/en\/continuum-trends\/\u00bb button_text=\u00bbReturn to\u00bb button_alignment=\u00bbright\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb custom_button=\u00bbon\u00bb button_text_color=\u00bb#000000″ button_icon=\u00bb%%35%%\u00bb hover_enabled=\u00bb0″ sticky_enabled=\u00bb0″][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=\u00bb2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb2_5″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb][et_pb_blurb title=\u00bbFollow us\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb header_font_size=\u00bb30px\u00bb][\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\u00bb3_5″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb][et_pb_social_media_follow _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb][et_pb_social_media_follow_network social_network=\u00bbfacebook\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ContinuumLifestylePanama\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#3b5998″ follow_button=\u00bboff\u00bb url_new_window=\u00bbon\u00bb]facebook[\/et_pb_social_media_follow_network][et_pb_social_media_follow_network social_network=\u00bblinkedin\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/20106625\/admin\/\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#007bb6″ follow_button=\u00bboff\u00bb url_new_window=\u00bbon\u00bb]linkedin[\/et_pb_social_media_follow_network][et_pb_social_media_follow_network social_network=\u00bbpinterest\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.pinterest.es\/Conciergecontinuumlifestyle\/_saved\/\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#cb2027″ follow_button=\u00bboff\u00bb url_new_window=\u00bbon\u00bb]pinterest[\/et_pb_social_media_follow_network][et_pb_social_media_follow_network social_network=\u00bbinstagram\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/continuum.lifestyle.pa\/\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#ea2c59″ follow_button=\u00bboff\u00bb url_new_window=\u00bbon\u00bb]instagram[\/et_pb_social_media_follow_network][\/et_pb_social_media_follow][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [et_pb_section fb_built=\u00bb1″ custom_padding_last_edited=\u00bbon|desktop\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ custom_padding=\u00bb0px||0px||true|false\u00bb custom_padding_tablet=\u00bb\u00bb custom_padding_phone=\u00bb\u00bb locked=\u00bboff\u00bb][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=\u00bbon|desktop\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.2″ custom_padding=\u00bb0px||0px||true|false\u00bb custom_padding_tablet=\u00bb\u00bb custom_padding_phone=\u00bb\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.0.11″][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ header_4_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb header_5_text_color=\u00bb#474747″ header_5_font_size=\u00bb15px\u00bb] Often seen as a way to showcase the variety of beautiful handbags, shoes and clothing one owns, a walk-in closet or dressing room is one of those spaces that screams extravagance and elegance.

First, you’ll need to think about the style of the room. Dressing rooms should be comfortable spaces, a place where you can display your carefully selected or well-appointed jewelry, clothing and accessories, so think about how you can create an area that celebrates these items rather than hiding them. Choose a color scheme that complements your furniture and don’t opt for overly busy decor, as you want your belongings to do the talking. <\/p>\n
