That was delightful, and an enormous amount of work! I don’t have that space, but still enough to house a good deal of my wardrobe. Problem is, 16 months ago I adopted a furry family member, and her kennel only fit in one side of my closet, so out went the clothes. They are everywhere, every door has taken on the look of an expanded closet. Only now am I able to remove it and put it to its intended use. Hard work ahead, so I congratulate you on making this inspiring and motivational video. Big mahalo.

Laura! I have been waiting for this makeover! Wow, What a transformation, worth the wait. I would be interested in learning how you organize, and your thought process on how you decide what to keep and to donate. I loved your "Should it stay or should it go" series. Beautifully done. Bravo!!
@LittleBoxofHappybyLauraАй бұрын
Thank you so much!! So appreciate the kind words. When deciding what to purge I go with is it still in style, do I picture myself grabbing for it, do I still wear that type of clothing, to name a few. I will have to do more of the SIS or SIG!! Hugs!

Hi Laura WOW your new closet is so beautiful. You did an amazing job designing your space. I love everything about it. Your amazing husband does deserve a lot of credit getting it ready. Calfornia Closets and Joy did a great job. I am sure Joy saved your sanity during the whole process...all of that during the time your dad's fire and subsequent move to your house,and you still managed to work , redo your closet, take care of your dad's needs, travel, take care of your home and family, Xena, Wyatt, and Harvey. If anyone deserves this space it is you!!! Enjoy it and please take some time for you. ❤❤❤❤

Laura, the closet is fabulous but are those boxes at the very top all of your shoes? I would need mine to be on display so that I could put them together with an outfit. I thought that some of the shelves in the front would be to display your shoes. But if this design works for you, then that's great!🥰

Sweet Laura! You made great choices, and I can tell that your designer, Joy, was a great guide for you when it came to making practical and reasonable bling factor decisions. Those valet slides are awesome and so worth the cost, for outfit planning and convenience. I was a Design Consultant for Closet World here in CA so I know that keeping things reasonable can be a challenge. Your splurges are what make this closet uniquely yours... I love the frosted doors and hardware choices! You will find the jewelry drawer to be a sanity saver! Adding a few more valet rods and another belt slide-out won't hurt, especially now that you know how wonderful they are. Your chaise also looks like a perfect place for packing your suitcase. I am very proud of you for being able to part with 50% of your clothes. I think we just have to get to the point where we realize we aren't going to stop buying, that makes it easier to recycle.

Love the closet and your channel! I did a closet purge last weekend and found that I purged a lot of skirts, specifically pencil skirts, because I am just not reaching for them very often these days. I wondered if you had a similar experience and found yourself purging any certain apparel item more than others and, if so, which item was the most purged for you?
@LittleBoxofHappybyLauraАй бұрын
Hi Dawn, Thank you so much!! I did purge more of some items than others. I also purged pencil skirts, and here are a few others - tie dye, skinny jeans (though I kept my faves, they are still in), lots of bags I just don't carry (kept those I truly LOVE), scarves (I had too many).
