Moving In & Organising My Walk In Wardrobe

Welcome to our new series of vlogs where we will be renovating our early 1960's converted bungalow in the beautiful Kent countryside. This renovation will involve a lot of #DIY as we do like to get stuck in however we are not professionals in any way so these are not tutorials 😂. From experience renovating previous properties we know that we learn from our mistakes and pick up new tips, tricks and skills along the way. This is not going to be a quick turn around, we'll be doing this over the course of the next few years so thank you for coming along for the journey, hopefully we'll still have all our limbs, fingers and toes intact by the end of it 🤞🏼

ADVERTISING
As content creation is our business and how we earn our living you will see advertising in our content from time to time in different forms:
We are very selective about what brands we work with on paid/sponsored content creation and as a rule we don't work with any brand that we don't already or wouldn't spend our own money on. We are incredibly proud of all our brand partnership content and it will always be disclaimed in the most transparent way possible so you know exactly what is and 'AD'.
Because we don't work with a large amount of brands on sponsored content we do rely on our KZbin ad revenue. Any adverts you watch during the duration of our videos will earn us a small percentage of 'ad revenue' from KZbin and we really appreciate you watching the adverts in full (and not skipping them), but only if and when you can. We also know that time is precious so no pressure.
We also use 'Affiliate Links' in the description boxes below our videos and if you make a purchase via these links we will earn a small percentage of commission depending on the sale amount. Not all links are affiliate links but just assume they are
Any items/links marked with '[AD - Pr products]' are products which have been 'gifted' from the respective brands without a contract for sponsored content. This is still classed as a form of advertising because nothing is ever "free", brands are gaining exposure to our audience by us featuring them, so these items are marked as 'AD' but we are under no obligation to feature these items. And as with our paid content, we never accept gifting/pr products from brands that we don't already or wouldn't spend our money on. If we have received a press discount on anything featured this will also be disclaimed.

Everything looks great... not sure if you realise how naturally creative you are.

[@meryemkemal2085]

Darling what did do for living?

[@tigrezz0852]

I was expecting the bags to be on display but then again having them inside the cupboards makes it more aesthetically pleasing ☺️ my OCD is very pleased with this reveal LOL awesome job as always Emma and Simon 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@EmmaHill]

I had considered it but decided it was better to have them closed away so that they are better protected 👍

[@sallyannc3176]

I would keep the bags in the cupboard to protect them from the light but do they have to be in the dustbags too? It would be nice to at least be able to see them when you open the cupboard.

[@Rio-zw9gz]

It’s not even 8am and I’ve just ripped out my entire walk in wardrobes to redesign where my clothes and accessories will go. Thanks to your inspiring clothing arrangement this morning!

[@EmmaHill]

Good luck and happy Sunday ❤️

[@tammimarie]

Love this 😂

[@lindasvenssonsmith4794]

I felt the same need lol

[@juliagoolia72]

So happy for you. You’ve come such a long way from the wardrobes with the rods that bent under the weight of your jeans and we were all so concerned would break! Enjoy your super calm space, it’s so lovely.

[@EmmaHill]

😂 back in the day 😂

[@FelicitasMayer]

What a treat to watch this video in the morning. Your wardrobe is so aesthetically pleasing and has very calm and relaxing vibes… so so good. I already made a mental list how to update ( and for first time actually organize) my own wardrobe while watching last week’s video but now it’s decided to start this project. Thank you so much for sharing your process! Also many many bonus points for Simon for crawling into that tiny wall storage space and putting away your things 😁😁😁, well played Emma!

[@EmmaHill]

😂

[@lesyadaderko]

Looking forward to seeing how your wardrobe will look like during the summer!

[@marclefebvre1659]

Wow, the walk-in closet looks so great. you must be excited that its finished. Possibly, think about placing a clear film on the window that blocks UV light, I think its the UV that bleaches clothes. That way, its less worry about clothes fading and you don't have to keep the blind closed all the time (except for filming videos)

[@EmmaHill]

I hadn't thought of that, so will take a look. Thank you ❤️

[@TheDessertPlease]

It's looking amazing! I've found the cedar wood balls/disks have worked well for moths, and I've moved to an open wardrobe so it's not as dark (apparently moths like dark!) and also helps air circulate. I read that going through and gently 'shaking' the clothes /hangers monthly or so helps disturb any that might be there and that seems to have helped. I see dead moths every now and then but so far not found any major holes!

[@nanase21]

I love that we were able to see how you put everything in the wardrobe, it is like we did it together ❤

[@Jane-tm7nj]

This project turned out beautifully! I just have to say that not only is your sense of style immaculate, your videos are also well put together and pleasing to watch. I’d love to see a video on your wardrobe necessities to keep your clothes in good condition.

[@michelleframpton2561]

Your wardrobe space is amazing Emma! So clean and perfectly organised-well done to you and Simon. It will be a joy to you every time you open the door. 😊

[@susanneflora3133]

Love wardrobe organization! 😍 Yours look beautiful! In Scandinavia the preference is always to store all outerwear related clothes and accessories in the hallway area, even when the hallway is small 🐰 Coats, jackets, hats, scraves, gloves, shoes (except dressy shoes). Everything we manage to fit. Either in a seperate wardrobe, open hooks for coats/jackets, open shoe shelving, drawers or similar. It seems like such a faff (and dirty with shoes) to have it elsewhere! 😅 Really interesting to see subtle differences in preference and customs across borders 😯☺️

[@thechicantique4567]

Wow! I've been waiting for this for weeks, maybe even months since you and Simon mentioned what the space would eventually be, and I'm super impressed! I love how the entire hack turned out and how each category has it's own separate space! I can't wait to use this as inspiration in my own tiny alcove turned walk in wardrobe! I didn't think you'd put your bags behind closed doors, but now I'm considering that as well. Being that they're mostly invest pieces, they probably should be kept in their dust bags and not gathering dust and sunlight. I can't wait to see the finishing few touches once the few pieces come in. Bravo! You just made my week! 🧡👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@claireb6966]

Looks brilliant Emma!! So pleasing that everything fits in just so! I know if that was me, there would be bits hodge podge where they don't fit! I would also 100% trip over the seat/poof every single day! I hope the space is as pleasing use as it looks! I look forward to seeing what you do with the future shoe storage!! x

[@elleasemartindale]

Highlight to my week! Who knew watching someone folding knitwear and jeans could be so satisfying! Great video Emma (and Simon) as always 🤎

[@danishpastry6137]

Love your new wardrobe! Hopefully the missing drawers won't be too long in coming! You're so good at padding your bags out and putting them in dust bags! We have pax as a walk in wardrobe too, about 15 years old and still going strong! I'm a great fan of wooden hangers too, it's a deliberate choice not to have space saving hangers - when (not if) space gets tight, it's time to have a clear out! Although I could do with some velvet ones, for those tops etc that easily slip off.

[@mimseyllamenberger2097]

It looks really nice! Those moths cedar rings work quite well - but you should save the knitwear in the drawers, too. Since cedar wood oil can make stains, i bought moth-paper in the drug store and put it on the inner top of the drawer shelves (i hope this is an english sentence, I'm from Germany). And, don't you need a mirror? Your room looks beautiful, really calming atmosphere

[@EmmaHill]

Yes perfect sense. We are going to pop a couple in the back of the drawer units too 👍 And I just need to make a final decision on mirror 😂 🙈

[@leilakadribasic]

I love love how you hsve utilized the d Space for your closet. I would just never put shoes I use regularly in with my clothes. Maybe the dressy ones I wear once in a while. However, you do you. Love the renovation videos 💗💗💗💓

[@kateleeder7191]

Absolutely beautiful and sooooooo organized ! You two are “pros” at DIY projects ….

[@Mellowmellow65]

Well done Emma and your hubby for making this room such a beautiful space, your designs skills are so on point and practical for your use, it looks so calming in there and that extra hidden storage space behind the wall is great.

[@AlexandraRoseCooper]

Love the way you organised your drawers! It looks great and has inspired me to reorganise my wardrobe.

[@claudiabernardi2695]

Happy New Year Emma! I am so happy you are finally able to reunite with your wardrobe. It’s looking so good! I am excited to see all your projects!😀❤️

[@nicolahaertel2468]

What a great use of space. I love that the summer tubs can go in there as well! The little island rounds it up so well.

[@NatiHerron]

Love how it turned out! I like the footstool and tray especially as it has double use.

[@dianesims3682]

Watching this brought me so much joy. I love having everything organised and accessible. You have inspired me to make some changes to my set up. Thank you so much ❣️

[@lizandjohnny]

I have been so looking forward to seeing this video and it certainly didn't disappoint. It looks beautiful! Thanks Emma and Simon 🖤🖤

[@JaCaraKM]

Looks Wonderful! It’s such a visually calm space.

[@lynnsteyaert4477]

OMG it is amazing. Such a lovely, nice, calming space to be in. Another winner Emma. And Simon off course. 😊

[@xoliswamashiqa]

It looks so functional and neat! Absolutely stunning Emma 🔥

[@alisonmckenzie1415]

Wow amazing Emma , super tidy,organised and clean.Perfect.Definitely on my list to organise my wardrobe this week.Thanks Emma 👍x.

[@LomasLifestyle]

Honestly this is amazing. Love that you did it all from scratch the joy of that. Makes me feel like a walk in wardrobe is not too far off my future.

[@jackieansell1394]

Wow looks fabulous, you both did an amazing job. We’ve just had a loft conversion with a walk in wardrobe very similar to yours, so this has provided lots of inspiration, thank you 👏🏻

[@AuthenticInFashion]

YEEES! So looking forward to the end result. You’re the queen of closet organization! ❤️❤️❤️

[@Heather_isms]

This was a satisfying video: got to see your design vision and it's practicality in real life. You get to enjoy your clothes again, and feel more settled into your space. Another project done, and it's fantastic, Emma. ❤

[@LavenderLife007]

I also cant wait to see how this changes spring and summer. I love the way it turned out. And love closet organization. It just makes dressing for the day easier.

[@staceytrewart4544]

Stunningly good! Minimally chic, neutral and fully functional…. Everything I have come to expect from you both. Well done it’s an absolute triumph and I love it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️

[@Piavictoria]

Omg everything looks so beautiful und pleasingly organised. Turned out so well!!! Congrats to this walk in wardrobe!! :)

[@meldan526]

This wardrobe setup video is so satisfying…start to finish. And such a calm and aesthetically pleasing space. I can just sit in there and have a cup of tea while listening to music. You and Simon are so impressive with your DIY efforts. Thank you for sharing your home renos.

[@janelleespinosa6247]

Wow! You really made the best use of your space. Everything came out so great. I love to constantly weed out pieces I am not using to keep it paired down. Yours looks about right, and not too many things! You really do keep it simple.

[@MoniqueSinha]

So organized. I've been wanting to organize my wardrobe, this video is definitely inspiring me to get a move on.

[@mrsbell222]

It’s absolutely gorgeous! Love it! What a space to spend time in. ❤️❤️❤️

[@gaelliott61]

Many of our Eastern US homes are similar to UK homes lacking a “hall” or coat closet near the front door. We had to carve one out ourselves when we remodeled years ago-it may be worth it so you can free up that real estate. You’ll love those slide out accessories trays and all the rest. So happy for you!

[@Truth1561]

I love the fact you did this yourselves- so much more satisfying for you - and us!

[@absolute07]

It looks great! Not only the lay-out and the color scheme, but the organisation and the decoration is on point. I really like your videos Emma & Simon. I am looking forward to next week, I am taking notes.

[@ItsOnlyWarPaint]

It’s a good use of space . I have previously used those exact same soft close springs, they also work in drawers too

[@grossstadtwohnen2637]

Love it! Your wardrobe looks so good! Really creative how you use all the space in this tiny room! 🤍

[@oliviawesthead5718]

This was so satisfying to watch and turned out so beautifully! Really makes me want to organise my wardrobe!

[@Emma-un5hd]

Incredible project and outcome. I look forward to all your other projects you both create ❤️

[@Clauds71]

Hi Emma, you did a wonderful job 🤍 I can’t wait to do the same once I move into my new home 😃

[@HannahAngel123]

It looks fantastic, you have made great use of the space without making it feel overcrowded. Really good job Emma :)

[@aliceinwonderland.2080]

Hi Emma. What a dream! I’d love to have a dressing room but I’m not complaining!I’m pretty organised and it really helps with decision making.In Greece,we have pretty defined seasons so storage boxes come in really hand,although my coat collection has a permanent place.I do put a long protective cover on each of them though as I get scared of the moths coming to call! You’ve done a brilliant job and enjoy your new space! 🥰

[@anaguerra663]

Aestheticaly pleasing, very nice tones and kinda minimalistic but without being cold... You did a great job Emma..well done!!!

[@pamkirby4390]

Such a wonderful wardrobe, I know you are so proud of it. Your hard work has definitely paid off 🙌🏻🇺🇸💛

[@dalmahartstein1676]

You guys created a beautiful space! I would love to see a video about your wishlist for this year, clothes, bags even furniture, anything really! :)

[@himmalaya100]

Love it!! Also makes me want to re-organize my wardrove and make sure everything looks as good as yours 😍

[@belleogilvie5172]

I am absolutely green with envy 💚 what a lucky lady to have all that space, see everything and fabulous design - well done!

[@shireebranche5882]

Absolutely beautiful Emma, functional and aesthetically pleasing to the eye too xx

[@michellejohnson7559]

Was so excited for this and it didn’t disappoint! Well done Emma and Simon, the space looks awesome. 💗

[@jordanward9267]

Absolute wardrobe goals 💕 This was so pleasing to watch and has given me so much inspiration!

[@nae4830]

Hey Emma, love your videos! I’m curious, is it ever too much? Are there times when you consider decluttering more? Though lately there haven’t been videos of you decluttering or clearing out. Like wow, there are way fewer jeans than what you see to have! HUUUGE difference. Would love to know more about your process and just your general thoughts about adding, clearing out, swapping and what your theory on all that is. 😊

[@DoraTheBoiBoish]

Absolutely beautiful impressive and creative. Thank you for sharing it all with us!

[@AmandaFitPanda]

Love it, Emma! You and Simon did a wonderful job! Sending love from Houston, Tx USA 🇺🇸 ♥️

[@klaudiakosarko5928]

This wardrobe is a dream! I feel so so inpired, cannot wait to have mine in the hopefully near future. Thank you Emma for the great tips :)

[@Lily-pf8cd]

❤️ it’s such a satisfying feeling to have an organize closet!🙏🏼🥰

[@dimachadosantos]

That sequence of brown/khaki - navy - light blue blazers is just too satisfying. Been waiting for this video all week, did not disappoint.

[@chantalgarneau3958]

Hello Emma. Thank you for this great video! Beautiful wardrobe. You have so much talent. I have the wooden hangers as well and just love them. Looks so chic. Take care.

[@kelliepatten4441]

Such a beautiful space Emma. Love watching the transformation.

[@myhvit6293]

What a treat to look at this video. It made me so calm and wished I had the same setup! 😍. I would love to see a video on folding techniques and what you group with what when it comes to your drawers knitwear, jeans, T-shirts etc. I struggle in getting them in the right size and a good combination. Also Loungewear essential, tired of pj's all day.

[@soledadmcnally]

I love the doggies keeping you company.

[@annlittlejohn1454]

Wow. Wow. Wow. Simply gorgeous!!! I am so jealous but happy for you. What an amazing DIY!!

[@jenniesernekvist1488]

So nice, clean and fresh! Love it💕

[@ireneclark3993]

I just needed a wee bit inspiration to empty my wardrobe. Enjoyed that almost as if I cleared and organised it myself.

[@Ccgemini]

You and Simon did a great job building and painting the wardrobe

[@vivianlamonica625]

1) cannot believe how long your hair is 2) now your rails aren’t sagging because of heavy clothes so very aesthetically pleasing to my eyes. 3) wardrobe is beautiful. I love that your outerwear is part of your walk in closet. I hadn’t thought of doing that. I have my outerwear in a separate closet near the front door but the way you have it allows you to incorporate your outerwear into your daily outfit choice. Have to rethink my closet. Thank you for sharing.

[@mariawelling4194]

Wow! Awesome renovation!! Gorgeous 😍! Emma, you're a very hard worker!! ❤

[@lodibotion3098]

what an amazing job you've done, it looks gorgeous !!!

[@paulinebrandt6767]

Exquisite space Emma - most inspiring! I can vouch for the cedar discs. Love your videos not forgetting Simon's hilarious cameos 😅 Thanks for sharing ❤️

Thank YOU for sharing this, Emma. A wholly satisfying video. Xx

[@EmmaHill]

Have fun 😘

[@10Nata29]

So pleasing to watch and a great inspo!!

[@yeannie1000]

Love it!! I use French lavender in sachets for my drawers to ward off moths!

[@janicehaugh]

Great video! My suggestion for the space where you are waiting for the small drawers, you could put a linen basket/wash basket for your dirty washing. Loving watching you guys transform your new house.

[@virginiamirandarufo9143]

I love this videos. Great team and great work. Waiting for more!
