Dream Closet Makeover Ingredients

Lately I've really been wanting to use grays & whites somewhere in my house, I love the combination of these two classic colors when they're mixed with deep rich wood tones & a little sparkle (think mirrors or chandelier crystals). However that said, this style goes with nothing in the Mediterranean design scheme were working towards throughout the rest of the house. So where could I use this without it looking out of place? Somewhere that wouldn't necessarily matter if it didn't hold hands with the rest of the color schemes in our home? It would have to be a room all to itself.........I do need to redo my closet organization system......and If I'm going to repaint the best time to do it would be when everything is already taken out, like you would need to if you were putting in a new closet system, hmm....

These bold vertical stripes are a great design trick for making a space appear to have higher ceilings, which would be great in my "walk in" closet which is really more of a squeeze in closet. For some reason the ceilings in my closet are lower than they are in my bedroom. So this paint treatment might be a good option for me.

I'm also loving this stencil design, it's a nice graphic print without being too overpowering (which is good because going to bold could end up making my cluttered little closet look even smaller. Simple to do too.

Every closet needs ample room for stiletto storage, right? When we bought our house the previous owners had some built in shelves installed but they're not very efficient, for me at least. The spaces between each self are at least a foot & a half, probably good for what they were intended for - folded clothes. That's what dressers are for. I'm planning on adding a few so that they can be re-spaced appropriately for heels, and a couple for boots too. What I love about this set up is the back lighting on each shelf, it's like a shoe gallery.

What I love about this organization system is that it looks so nice & neat but look at how much is packed in there! This is what I need, and there's even additional shoe storage at the bottom!

Of course, if Im going to make all these cool changes to my closet then I'll need to make sure there's enough lighting to notice them all. In my mini space one of these mini chandeliers would work perfectly! If you can't have a grand scale you should at least have grand style.

And lastly, what good is a closet with no mirror? This awesome gold carve frame would really stand out against a cool gray paint treatment. It would also give my boyfriend a chance to try out the new router table his mom just got! He has been anxious to use it.......It would be so cute with a little tufted footstool with curved legs sitting in front of it.

So what do you think of this color scheme? Cool gray with white accents and gold leaf finishes on the huge mirror & mini chandelier, all anchored by dark rich wood shelving? I think I need to get to work!
