[quote=Anonymous]I am not handy and neither is my husband, but through intelligent planning we were able to customize two large closets with retail DIY products. Downstairs wide folding door closet: -Ikea light birch closet column with real wood drawers -faux light wood shelf boards my husband cut to fit with a borrowed circular saw (one line, one cut per shelf) -Home Depot shelf holding brackets I shortened with a hacksaw and filed smooth (they were longer than the shelf boards because they were from different companies) -Hole drilling and wood screw use to mount brackets -Pried up the baseboard molding, cut pieces to fit, and nailed back in place Square walk-in closet -Tore out wire shelving -Home Depot deep corner closet organizer -Bottom half of tower closet organizer -clothes rod brackets and rod -pipe cutter to cut rods to fit -Built and attached organizers to wall -Attached rod brackets to walls and organizers This was easier than it sounds. The toughest issue might be using the circular saw. You might be able to ask a friend or colleague to cut the boards to length at their house. But even though I mentioned some tools, they aren't expensive. With supplies included, we probably spent less than $400 on each closet and they are perfect for what we want.[/quote]
