Yes, I know, Mel Gibson did this, but there's so much more to "What Women Really Want"
Several years ago we attended a seminar, the speaker had never been married, and yet he so nailed this topic....."Men, if you really want to make your wife happy, build her a shelf"
I guess a lot of women had told him this thru the years and you know there is so much truth in it.
We women have a need to "nest" and make a place for our "stuff".....we love shelves, closets, storage pieces, etc.
So with that said, I got it all!!! Well, maybe not ALL.......but BIG.......really B I G!!!
For my Christmas Pat and Stayton ( and Kody was here for some of it too!), built the much needed closet in our bedroom. That room had never had a closet in it and we've been using a makeshift, temporary unit (for 2 years now). So, while I was away at work they cut, sawed, hammered and screwed the thing together.......
Maybe you don't get the whole impact, but here's the deal. The closet is 19.6 wide, floor to ceiling is at least 9'. There is 12' of just closet rod ( 6' for each of us) and I measured over 60 feet of shelf space.........60 feet!!!!. There's large storage area in the top part, which will accommodate 8 large totes ( bedding, pillows, etc) And our 42" TV set is right in the middle, like a large movie screen.........oh yea........that's so much what this woman really wanted!!! Storage, space and organization!!!!
I would have posted this earlier, but I've been busy "organizing" all my "stuff"

With that much space you can do a lot of organizing. LOL You'll be working at it all week-end.

Can't wait to see it! I'm sure Dad and the guys did a GREAT job! I wish I had your closet. Of course, if we'd just get rid of some of the needless junk in ours, we might have enough room.
