Designated drawers\/shelving<\/h2>\n

There\u2019s a reason that your front hall closet inevitably returns to a state of disarray no matter how many times you organize your shoes.\u00a0 When you\u2019re designing your custom walk-in closet, specific shelving and drawers for designated pieces of your wardrobe are crucial.\u00a0 Some of the most popular storage add-ons are for ties, shoes, hats, jewelry and formal attire.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Consider, as well, specific spaces for displaying or storing scarves, socks, watches, coats, gloves and any other abundant item in your wardrobe.\u00a0 This feature limits damage and wear on your items, while also providing a display piece and efficient storage to your home.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dressing\/makeup table<\/h2>\n

The ideal walk-in closet is set up to serve as your own luxury change room.\u00a0 From makeup to clothes to the finishing touches, your walk-in should have you covered.\u00a0 Adding a makeup station turns your closet into a fully equipped room to prepare for any occasion.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Options for vanity stations are versatile.\u00a0 If space or budget limits you on a full built-in station, consider adding a simple table and mirror in your style to a bare wall inside the space.\u00a0 Creating your own vanity island in the centre of your walk-in is another great way to utilize space.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laundry hamper<\/h2>\n

If your walk-in is going to be your luxury change room, a laundry hamper should be an obvious addition.\u00a0 A space or basket to hold your clothes until laundry day not only saves you a little extra floor space but it also hides the usually unwelcome sight of bundled, wrinkly clothes in a plastic bin.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ironing board<\/h2>\n

Image\u00a03<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Just as useful as a laundry basket, including an ironing board in your custom closet space is a no-brainer.\u00a0 Picture this: you\u2019re running around getting ready for a night out and you notice your favourite dress shirt is wrinkled.\u00a0 You still have to do your hair, your makeup and pick your shoes.\u00a0 With this added gem, you don\u2019t need to waste time running to your laundry room.\u00a0 Quickly pull down the ironing board and finish all your other night out tasks without leaving your closet.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Full length mirror<\/h2>\n

The absolute necessity you\u2019ll be kicking yourself for forgetting.\u00a0 You can add a single full-length mirror to your walk-in, a folding mirror like in store change rooms or deck out your entire space with mirrored surfaces.\u00a0 The important part is that you can fully visualize the outfits you are mix and matching in your walk-in closet.\u00a0 Adding this is much easier than walking to the bathroom for a final check.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Smart Station \u2013 TV, Laptop, ipad, Stereo<\/h2>\n

Image\u00a04<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Now we finally get to the luxuries.\u00a0 The beautiful part about building a smart station into your walk-in closet is being able to cut time on all the little details that often derail the \u2018getting ready\u2019 process.\u00a0 With access to a TV or iPad, you can check the morning traffic or find directions to the restaurant you\u2019re heading to.\u00a0 You can charge your phone or play music while getting dressed.\u00a0 If you want to check the last few episodes of your favourite show on Netflix while touching up your hair, we don\u2019t judge.\u00a0 The best thing about this feature is it allows you to multi-task and stay connected while getting ready for work or a night out.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Heated floors<\/h2>\n

There is nothing more off-putting in the morning than leaving your warm, comfortable bed and stripping off your cozy pajamas.\u00a0 Heated floors are becoming increasingly popular in kitchens and bathrooms; they are a great idea in a walk-in closet for the same reasons.\u00a0 A warm floor under your feet as you prepare for another Monday is an indescribable luxury.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take time to consider your space, budget and needs before planning your custom walk-in closet renovation.\u00a0 Remember that the best part of a custom design is you can add almost any feature you need to suit your lifestyle.\u00a0 Get in touch with one of Karry\u2019s design consultants to discuss which features you can include in your custom walk-in closet.<\/p>\n
