Real People, Real Closets: Gloria's Closet...

Hello everyone! I'm still here.....and guess what?!?

I have another cute closet sent to me....this time by Gloria from A Little Paint blog. All things considered, Gloria has a pretty small closet. However, she managed to highlight things by painting the walls a blue color & adding some turquoise hangers for interest! And....how pretty is that chandelier??

Here's Gloria explaining a few things about her closet:

It definitely is not a Mariah Carey, but it works for me. It's completely average in size, so I worked some magic to get it to function to its fullest. I found some old drawers, painted and mounted them onto the wall and its the perfect spot to stash my belts and other accessories.

My favorite part about it is how girlie it is. I love that it is MY personal space and I didn't have to be conscious of my husband when putting it together. As far as what's inside... It's the dresses that I love the most.

It may not look like it, but I have about 75 dresses crammed in there. Okay, wait, it's definitely a tie between the dresses and the chandelier.

Do you have a closet you'd like to submit to Made by Girl for consideration?? Email me here.

I feel Gloria's pain. We have a small closet AND I have to share it with the Husband :/ But, we make it work...not as good as Gloria, but it's functional for the time being. Great post and love the wall color and hangers. It DEFINITELY makes a huge difference :) Happy Hump Day Jen!

I like how the dark blue background seems to make everything in the closet pop. And, who wouldn't want a chandelier in their closet?

Like this theme but isn't it over indulgent (showing off the material collections)?

What a beautiful closet! You would think a dark shade of paint would make it look smaller, but it doesn't at all,it's so chic, and the chandelier adds a gorgeous vintage feel. Definitely inspiring me to create a boutiquey closet of my own like this one!

Much love Amie xxxx

I love this closet. I love that Gloria walks inside and feels like it's "her" space. I do the same thing with my closet!!
As soon as I enter it, I feel better.
