Closet finished!

Home improvement

A majorly important event occurred this weekend. I finished rehabbing my living room closet, which meant painting it, and more importantly, going from two flimsy shelves to seven sturdy ones. Anyone who lives in an apartment will appreciate the amazing changes in my life that this extra storage space will bring. I've also added some hooks to hang stuff like the broom and mop (previously they just stood in a corner of the kitchen), and my printer will go in there too on that table in the back, giving me more room on my desk.

This was not without pain though -- putting in three rails and mounting shelves to them sounds easy, but everything imaginable that could go wrong did!
