I live in an old house with two tiny closets. I am in awe . . .

Oh, and beautiful job, Rose!

Nicely done!

Alisande, my house is 100+ years old and it didn't have any closets. When my husband built an addition he said he was going to make me a closet in our new bedroom and he did it in big way.

Rose , you have worked very hard. I removed wallpaper about 30 years ago in one of our homes ,it took me forever. Hope there are easier ways today. Love your closet.

Rose, same here. No closet except a walk-in "coat closet" as they used to call them, off the livingroom. Actually it wasn't even a house to begin with, a one room school so my bachelor uncle just built the one closet. I use armoires.

Wish I had room for a closet like yours.

That's a BIG closet! NICE! Great painting job too!

Beautiful job!!!! Wish I had half your ambition today. Congrats on a great job.

Very nice! I will never have wallpaper again. Even if it comes back into style. What a hassle to remove and fix all the walls it was.

You did this yourself? Impressive. What a nice big space.

Rose, great job!!! Looks fresh and airy and spacious!

Looks really good, well done, Rose. Enjoy your "new" closet!

Nice! I've got some painting projects to do around here, and I've been procrastinating.

Nice! Experiencing serious closet envy here! ;)

Looks really good! Nice job. We also live in an older home, pre walk in closets, and mandatory 2 sink, spa like, huge bathrooms.

I'm Jonesing on your closet lol

Oh how nice & clean!!

I am wanting to do this to my closet as well, but I've not found the motivation. LOL

Looks clean and fresh. Great job!

I’m so impressed! We had the paper removed from a bathroom last yet, and at one point I told the painter to just put in new drywall. But that opened up its own can of worms. Oh, know what we found behind the wallpaper? The electric box for a light fixture over the sink. It had been just wallpapered over with a mirror hung on it by the PO. No, we have never taken down the mirror! I hope you didn’t find too many “surprises”, Rose!

No exciting surprises like that for me except 2 of the corners were pretty badly cracked. I got some great ideas how to deal with that on the Home repair forum.

When we bought our first home I was painting bedrooms and was going to paint the closets in the colors of the bedrooms. DH said to paint all closets white, that way you don’t have to repaint closet when changing room color! Very smart my DH!

I've removed wallpaper that we put up in a 80 year old house! It was soooo hard & if I remember,, I got frozen shoulder from the positioning of my arm while up on that ladder! I couldn't blame the po because I put it up myself, papering dormers around windows, slanted ceilings....what WAS I thinking??? Anyway, kudos to you for taking on this project & it looks so clean & beautiful!! You should feel proud of yourself for sure!!

We passed on making an offer on a nice cape cod once, partly because every surface IN the house had been wallpapered, including some ceilings.

Oh that wallpaper stripping! Sure looks nice and crisp and new. Good job.

Jealous here because I too live in an old house (185 years} and I would give anything for your closet. I guess people back then didn't have the amount of clothing we do.
