Stefan and I have been trying to take a break from working on the house, while Conner and Dianne are in town visiting, but I wanted to finished the closet really bad. So, Conner and Dianne decided to help us out and finish up the last of the master closet.
They helped build the last shelf and hang the last dowel. Our closet is finally complete and I love it!

Fill ‘er up! Can you guess which side is Summer’s?!
We love organization!
To make this closet, we used the following materials:
~ 3/4″ cedar plywood (4 or 5 4′x8′ sheets)
~ 6 wood dowels
~ 6 sets of dowel flanges
~ Belt hooks
~ Wood glue
Tools used:
~ Circular saw
~ Nail gun and nails
~ Electric sander
~ Level
~ Squaring ruler
~ Tape Measure/ruler
The total cost to build this closet was around $300 (since we already owned all the tools) and it took us about 6 - 8 hours of labor. Although, we can probably do it a lot quicker now that we have the kinks worked out :).

ugh… that’s fucking awesome. It definitely looks better than what I paid contractors to do.
That is really nice! I have been wanting to do something more custom in our closet. Right now it’s just a few rods and a big shelf. Well done!
Robert - Ha. Thanks. It’s nice to DIY and the project to actually turn out decent. I love having power tools readily available!
Aimee - Thanks for the kudos. Custom closets are my new favorite thing.
And, it’s right around the same price as those crap wire closet thingies from Home Depot.
Nicely done you two.
You might even want to forget this whole ‘webmaster thing’ and become full time closet specialists.
Are you going to move the energy bulb light fitting? Looks like it could receive a knock or three.
