[@dianahamel6198]

She is mix of Miranda Kerr and Cameron Diaz.

[@reechapradhan6110]

Diana Hamel was thinking same

[@officeyoga4679]

I was thinking Miranda Kerr for sure, but you are right.

I'm in the middle of trying to design my PAX - this was super helpful. Thank you!

[@marshbmath7616]

Thank you for this, I’m about to order pax wardrobes myself, this has helped me look at what they look like in the flesh 😀❤️👏🏻

[@jemmaxx3706]

This was amazing! I don’t even need a new wardrobe but your tips will be so so helpful for other people who are planning on getting one, great video!! Xx

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Aww yay, thank you! So glad you enjoyed it! xx

[@gatlinwesson1756]

@Jedidiah Douglas Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@gatlinwesson1756]

@Jedidiah Douglas it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thank you so much, you really help me out !

[@moodroulette5884]

I'm only half way through the video and this is one of the best "reviews" I've seen. Well done girl, you're a natural

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Thank you so much!! X

[@velafrancoise8489]

Hey lovely! Do you mind telling us how much your wardrobe came up to? With all the added extras

[@AnnemijnPasman]

Great inspiration! I've been looking for examples of PAX closets that are not simply used for storing clothing but also for storing all kinds of other stuff. Your wardrobe is a great example of organizing all your stuff in one big closet :)

[@vanessayeung33]

How do you manage with installing no handle? I want to do the same with my living room pax

[@mariaskoozynska3486]

Ok... So this is your first video that I've ever watched and I just want to say that you seem so sweet, lovely, down-to-earth and just great company so thank you for this video (also very informative Ikea stuff). I love it! (Also, I'm only 3 minutes in and I already needed to post this :)

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Thank you for such a lovely comment xxxx

[@GeorginaBisbyDIY]

Looks fab - we thought about Pax but got a carpenter to build ours in the end and it worked out a lot cheaper than I expected.

[@rosieigbinedion3161]

Georgina Bisby hi where did u find a carpenter really need one doing

[@GeorginaBisbyDIY]

@@rosieigbinedion3161 word of mouth - whereabouts are you based?

You look like Cameron Diaz!

[@MsNakiarooks]

Was thinking the same. So pretty. Love the dimples❤

[@SimoneSmith1]

So much prettier than Cameron Diaz !

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Simone Smith aw thank you!!!

[@ItsOnlyWarPaint]

Omg, I didn’t know that baskets would fit at the very bottom of the wardrobes where the door hinges are, I thought this was just a bad design fault, but now I know I can add something to that space “thank you “

[@kayelle8005]

First video of yours I’ve seen. You’re so charming and good information. Also your hair is stunning.

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Thank you so much! xx

[@hannahaboobaker3036]

I’m in the exact situation and love how you’ve shown us your wardrobes ….. I’m going to copy you -(new sub!)- coz I have just as much stuff and would organise it like you - you’ve made my life so easy thanks ! Take care

[@datoming]

What a breath of fresh air, you have doors to conceal the shelves, drawers abd hanging space unlike most modern designs without separate doors. It must be high maintenance to keep a walk-in wardrobe space tidy without any interior doors beside the entrance door to the walk-in wardrobe. Noe - My bad, this is a vidro on wardrobe in a bedroom not a walk-in wardrobe. However, I shall have interior doors to my new walk-in wardrobe, which is accessed via a wide sliding door.

[@jlammetje]

That basket at the bottom is genious! We just have stuffed all kinds of things there, but it's hard to get to them!

[@imlaurabradshaw]

They are the best! I didnt have them in my old wardrobes and agree, I used to lose all sorts under there!

[@jessonemore3537]

Love the wardrobe set-up! Great vibes! Thanks for sharing!

[@imlaurabradshaw]

thanks!

[@spencerwilton5831]

I did this in three bedrooms, like you I had to build them upright as there wasn't enough height. However mine were about half a centimetre too tall for my ceilings, so had to trim the base of six whole cabinets, all the trim etc. My local Ikea regularly sells pax frames in bargain corner. They are boxed, un assembled, presumably customer returns but in perfect condition. They are £10 each. Took several visits but I managed to buy six matching ones for £60. Got a mirror door for £15. If you live close to an Ikea it's worth visiting at least weekly and just biding your time until the right thing comes along.

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Its great to know they sell PAX in the bargain corner sometimes! Worth checking :)

[@spencerwilton5831]

Laura Bradshaw not just occasionally, they nearly always have multiple packs. You just have to hold out for the size and colour you want. I call in most weeks as I drive past daily.

[@nicolabooth9230]

Ah I love it! Yours is so much more organised than mine! 🤣 I need to have a clear out! X

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Thank youuu! Ah... I'm hoping it stays this way but I think it's because it's so new, haha! x

[@The88Nomad]

*"BEST FING EVA!"*

[@LeahHolt22]

Loved this video! It came at such a perfect time as I am currently looking at buying new wardrobes for my bedroom. Absolutely love how you have organised yours, so definitely going to use yours as inspiration. Thank you! xx

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Awww yay! Glad I could help! xxx

[@rosieigbinedion3161]

Laura Bradshaw hi please what is your room height top to floor please

[@eternity4everusa]

One advice, show your wardrobe in a wide angle when you start a video, then we can see how it looks.

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I show it during the video :)

[@withmaiki]

Thank you so much for sharing, it's really helpful

[@amyhall8917]

How does the wardrobe look built in? It looks so good!

[@imlaurabradshaw]

We were so lucky that it literally fitted in the space PERFECTLY and does look built in! So pleased with it :)

[@amyhall8917]

Laura Bradshaw Oh wow! Couldn’t have worked out better.😃🙏

[@lenabalina]

Great video!!! Super helpful!

I loved this video how you explained and amazing wardrobe you have it Waw please leat me know how much was the price if you don’t mind Laura ? Thanks

[@krzysztofukowski8706]

How do you open the door? Where's a handle? Is it easy to open without a handle?

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I had to open them at the bottom here as I didn't have any handles yet! But now I have handles :)

[@ljb.84]

I just love your excitement and enthusiasm it's so sweet... Ps. You should Marie Kondo everything... X

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Awww yay, thank you so much! I actually did Marie Kondo everything once, but then I kept forgetting how to do it and it took me too long to put my washing away!! Haha!

[@anaguerra7337]

Hi Laura, just came across your channel today and as soon I heard your beautiful accent with such enthusiasm and energy I had to subscribe. I have a pax wardrobe in my walking wardrobe since 2007 but at that time I was moving with a bit of a hurry and I didn't have time to organize it in terms of my clothes. Seing yours made me thinking that it's time to organize ir with more shelving... Thank you for sharing .. Love from Portugal!!! 😚

[@imlaurabradshaw]

Hey Ana, thank you so much - that's the cutest! Ohh wow! Well the great thing about Pax is that you can literally just go and buy extras for it, which is fab! Hope you have fun organising :) xx

[@bethbanderton2163]

Hey Laura, Can I ask where you purchased the plastic see through divider?

[@alexgambinoo]

hi, this might be dumb, but like, are there any handles? (i dont see any) haha how do you open the doors? 😅 i really love the overall look of itt

[@imlaurabradshaw]

The handles hadn’t arrived when I filmed so I opened at the bottom but I have handles now :) x

[@drmylanr4794]

I know I'm super late but after watching tons of videos on the pax system, I like yours the most. Have you or would you mind sharing your template like what drawers, baskets etc on a template?

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I'm not sure if i still have the files as they hold them on the Ikea website! sorry! xxx

[@drmylanr4794]

No worries. I'm only like 2 years late! 😆 I appreciate you answering. I'm just going to watch and pause and write down what you have 🤣

[@oliviaberlouis]

Hi Laura! Did you get the frames in the height 201cm or 236cm please?

[@rosieigbinedion3161]

Hi could you tell me the height of your room floor to ceiling please

[@oykuozer5624]

where did you get the square containers for your glass shelf?

[@MM-bw1lo]

Very nice!

[@CL-yt8kc]

How does the PAX range work? Do I have to make mind what design I want for my whole wardrobe at once or can I buy like a single or double framed wardrobe now and kind of try it out and play with it then gradually add in more wardrobes and shelves until I fill in the entire side of the wall?

[@МарияВолон]

Hi! Nice video! Thanks! Is this all YOUR lipsticks???😱😱😱

[@Nefertsukia]

In the second small size drawer , the one without the dividers you use for your jewelry, if you buy the silicone/rubbery material dotted shelf/drawer liner, then your stuff won’t be moving around when you open and close that one drawer. I think it’s called the Variera drawer mat in Ikea.

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I have some!! I literally got some a few weeks ago and need to put it in there :) thank you so much for reminding me as i totally forgot I had got it haha! xx

[@Nefertsukia]

@@imlaurabradshaw oh, great! That's good, I'm sure you will definitely see the difference. :D (and it's easy to forget about small details like this, haha). Loved the video by the way, I want your closet!😂

[@dragonling748]

Under the Glass shelf you have clear dividers, where did you get those?

Hi Laura, great video on the Pax wardrobes. We are looking at getting some as well so the installing info was really good to know. My question is what lipstick are you wearing. It's beautiful. My husband even commented on it (this has never happened before)- good work! :)

[@monikakapuscinska5821]

How tall is your Pax wardrobe? You have a ceiling so low that the wardrobe is right up to the ceiling? Usually wardrobes in ikea are lower than the ceiling? Thanks for the answer

[@VickyLatorreArt]

How you open it without handles? Does it has a hidden place to put your hand to open it?

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I didnt have handles at the time as they didn't arrive. I now have handles :)

[@SLA-ek1uw]

How do you open doors? Push to open?

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I have handles now. They hadn’t been delivered at the time of filming this.

[@anab.401]

Please please, what are the dimensions of the whole wardrobe? And what the dimensions of every part/frame of the wardrobe? I would like to plan my own PAX so that information would be very helpful! xx

[@rebeccaard1]

The wardrobes come in 50,75,100. Height 200,235. Go on the pax planner

[@salmaabdullahgb]

@@rebeccaard1 that's much wider than 100 they go up to 301

[@rebeccaard1]

Salma Abdullah no they don’t. The widest wardrobe is 100cm and depth 60cm. The only way to get 300cm wide is to use a multiple of the above.

[@salmaabdullahgb]

@@rebeccaard1 I think I meant 201 for height but I know they also do the 236

[@rebeccaard1]

Salma Abdullah you are really not making sense. As I said, go to the Pax planner as you can design a wardrobe that fits your space and requirements.

[@ronald4622]

How is the longevity of the wardrobe? Do the shelves warp fast from having weight on it? Any chipping from sliding the drawers in and out?

[@marianunu8024]

Love your dimples

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I keep them in our under stairs cupboard, haha! But also, in the baskets at the bottom of the wardrobe too.

[@sarabooth-kilby6457]

I love it, how much was it all in total? Do you have to have handles on the doors or do you just press them to pop them open? Thanks

[@imlaurabradshaw]

I think I paid £900 (give or take a few pounds!) including all the features and lights/delivery etc! On these you have to have handles, but for a while I did manage to open them from the bottom! They don't click open though x

I have about 1cm (if that!) at the top! It was a squeeze but we did it! My advice is to remove carpet underneath if you run out of room - this is what I did, so the wardrobes sit on the floorboards. That saved a few cm :) x
