New wardrobe - allmost a walkin

I've got a new closet, or in reality it's not new, I just rearranged it, getting more space with the ones I had already. The closets are about 20 years old and originates from my parents old apartment on Frederiksberg, later they moved with us to my parents house where they all so moved around. Finally they have moved with me to my apartment. Talk about reusing your stuff. They aren't the prettiest sight I've ever seen and actually not that roomy, since they are to deep to utilize reasonably. Next step is probably some white paint, since they have a yellowish glow over them. Right now though, I just feel like I'm in heaven with all the space that got created.

Here's the result in a Gif, more pictures and explanation (including Danish part of the post) to follow after the jump.

Jeg har fået nyt skab, eller nyt er det ikke, jeg har bare fået lavet mere plads med de skabe jeg havde i forvejen. Skabene er cirka 20 år gamle og kommer oprindeligt fra mine forældres gamle lejlighed på Frederiksberg, de er flyttet med ud i mine forældres hus, flyttet fra rum til rum der ude. Til sidst flyttede de med mig ud i min lejlighed i NV. Snak om genbrug. De er ikke specielt kønne, og egentlig er de også så dybe at de er svære an anvende ordentligt rummeligt. Næste skridt er vist at give dem et lag maling, bare almindelig hvid, så de ikke ser så gullige ud. Lige nu er jeg egentlig bare i himmelen over at have plads til alle mine kjoler på bøjler.


Resultatet kan ses på den Gif jeg har kreeret.

The empty but ready to be filled.

 When my boyfriend moved into my apartment and everything got moved around I got the possibility for more hanger space between my wardrobes, I previously had about half a meter. Since I have no hanger space in my wardrobes, the room between my wardrobes are the only opportunity for anywhere to hang anything on hangers. Besides hanger space I got some space for a bunch of shelves, where among other things, my shoes and hats could be stored. Previously my shoes were placed inside the closet and filled up the space, not any more. The shelves are made from cheap residual wood from the local hardware store and some shelf brackets from Ikea. They weren't the prettiest sight I have ever seen, so I covered the shelves with fabric. It's way cheaper to use (big) fabric scraps than paint, it's also easy and the possibilities are great. You just use a staple gun and  you best gift wrapping skills.

Da min kæreste flyttede ind og vi rykkede rundt på alle møblerne fik jeg mulighed for at få mere plads mellem mine skabe, tidligere havde jeg cirka en halv meter. Da jeg ikke har noget bøjleplads i mine skabe er det min eneste mulighed for faktisk at få ting til at hænge på bøjler. Ud over bøjleplads øjnede jeg chancen for at få en masse hylder hvor blandt andet mine sko og hatte kunne være på. Tidligere stod mine sko inde i skabet og fyldte, men nu har jeg dejligt med plads. Hylderne er lavet af rest træ fra Silvan og nogle hyldeknægte fra Ikea. For at de skulle se lidt festligere ud har jeg beklædt hylderne med stof, det er billigere end maling, mulighederne er større og så er det dejligt nemt. Man skal bare bruge en hæftepistol og sine bedste gave indpaknings evner.

Bendy, bendy, bendy and it's making me nervous.

There is a minor problem though, the hanger rod is not completely stable, so I have bought a water pipe that I'm going to put in, instead of the rod.

Det har dog vist sig at bøjlestangen ikke er helt stabil, jeg har derfor købt et vandrør som jeg har tænkt mig at skifte bøjlestangen ud med.
