The Sequel to the New and Improved Closet Area

Okay, it was better, but still not working for me...so it was time to change things. Again.

The metal shelving went outside on the deck, since we already have one large metal cage, why not add some more.


Now this holds the refrigerator and provides a place for recycling.



Speaking of cycling, finally Left Brain has a place to hang his sweaty biking gear.


And not to be outdone, I have a place to hang my pickleball bag.




So, to get the materials needed to add some shelves to the storage area, we gutted out the closet in the Arizona room.  This was no easy task and a lot of sweat and swearing went on.


Left Brain borrowed a power saw from our friend Dave and cut them down to the required lengths.


The shelves above house my dollmaking supplies and decorative junk.  This arrangement makes it much easier to pull out the Swifter and vacuum cleaner to keep the floors clean.



Finally the litter box is deeper back into the closet and out of sight and there's more room to move around in the storage area.  I've also started to hang things that will return to Minnesota in the springtime.


The final touch  was adding a tension rod and curtain to block off the view of this room.  Okay, maybe it's just an excuse for another curtain.





Long Live the Closet Queen
