Project: Closet
I am done! I am done! I am done! I am a procrastinator but I am now done! My closet collapsed back in the beginning of September. So I wanted to give it a makeover. I finished painting my closet and wallpapered one side of it.
Before: Before and a 1/2 (the green is making the blue look a
a lot darker than it is):
After w/ the wallpaper:
These are all her actual quotes. She cracks me up.
Now to hang up the shelfing unit…

Can I hire you to help w. our potential future house? Pleaaaaaajuh? Zoe can play w. my nephew and the horses!
@ThePseudoHousewife - yes and only if your pet pig will be there.
it is bootipul indeed.
LOVE IT! i can’t wait until we have our own place to do these projects although i guarantee i will procrastinate longer than you! zoe is way tooo cute for her own good!
wow, it’s so nice. you should move to california so i can hire you to decorate our home
Love the wall paper choice!!! I wouldn’t be surprised if you designed the print yourself!!! And can ZOE be any cuter saying “big hug… hugs hugs… ” awwww!!! **BIG HUGS** for Zoe!!!
nice closet makeover! how was putting up the paper? difficult? i love that color.
wow, that’s a really long and narrow closet! you did a good job! looks nice~
EEEEEES BOOTIFUL!
i’m curious about hanging wallpaper too. how was it?
I love love the wallpaper. Where do you get such cute wallpaper?
Your closet looks huge. Looks very nice. What made you wallpaper the walls?
Wish you can come to our house and take a look at our upstairs bathroom and give me some decorating tips… need a MAJOR makeover. It’s got 80s written all over it.
i wish you lived next to me so i would pay you to decorate my house! u should have ur own show w zoey!
love the wallpaper!
@SarahakaHungry - @tubecozy - so i bought one where you have to buy the paste separately. it wasn’t bad. i pasted the walls and then stuck the paper on top. the hard part is getting it straight and cutting off the ends right.
@juniper_breeeze - through target online
@jiNNie_g - send me a photo!
I would but it’s got a million lightbulbs around the mirror (sort of like a Hollywood dressing room) that I doubt the picture will even come out. The original owner must have been a clown or a make-up artist and needed good lighting. We undid some of the lightbulbs because you need sunglasses to brush your teeth.
@jiNNie_g - can’t you take the photo with natural light coming through the window during the day?
Took pics. I don’t know how to send it to you so I just posted them public. We moved in 1.5 months ago. I never ever thought to raise the blinds until you mentioned natural light…
I’m hoping we can remodel this year… but we’re sort of getting used to it. But in the meantime, I would like to at least remove the wallpaper and do something about those hideous lights. I used to watch alot of HGTV so I think I can do it.
Great Job! I always get bored and crash!
@jiNNie_g - where are the photos? i don’t see them.
under photos…
@jiNNie_g - i see it. man that’s a lot of work. just stripping the wallpaper i mean. just do it bit by bit. is it a bathroom that you guys use? and are you guys gonna do it yourself and are you gonna rewallpaper it or just paint or both?
We prefer paint but I know it’s going to be some work fixing the wall behind the wallpaper. So, I’d like to replace the wallpaper with something a little brighter… Problem is, I’m waiting for hubby to feel “inspired.” If I wasn’t pregnant, I’d do it myself at night while the kids are sleeping.
yes, we use it… we have another bathroom in our bedroom but again, waiting for the hubby to clean it before we use it. Waiting for a lot of things…
@jiNNie_g - well that’s why i wallpapered. all the patches on the wall were too bumpy that it would be too noticeable if i painted over it.maybe just wallpaper one wall like i did?
love it! god i need a bigger closet…can i live in yours? lol
Holy cow…you are are the asian Martha Stewart! Somehow everything you touch looks so beautiful. Zoe cracks me up.
@joesee22 - aww thanks josie!
Great job! Looks a whole lot brighter.
normally, I don’t like wallpapered walls, but Zoe is right… very beautiful!
Zoe is so cute. HOw much your services cost lady? I might have to fly and Zoe out too huh? … Dang can you redo, um everything at my place? I hate your talented creative funny ass! * smooch *
