Make Your Custom Closets More Unique With These 5 Tips
Just because your custom closet adds more functionality to your home doesn’t mean that’s all it can do. Plenty of homeowners think of things like furniture, color, and curtains when updating their home’s look, but they rarely consider the impact of having well-designed custom closets.
From putting lighting in to updating your flooring, adding seating options, and more, there are plenty of ways for you to make your custom closets more unique.
Once you’re ready to spruce up your closet, you should consider making these changes:
- Lighting can make a big difference.
- New flooring can complement your closet.
- Different hanger options might be what you need.
- Seating can enhance form and function.
- New colors can really make your closet pop.
Now that we’ve got a few changes in mind, let’s dive into each and see how to put them to use in your home.
Lighting Can Make a Big Difference
Lighting isn’t usually the first thing people consider when looking to update their custom closets, but it should be. With the simple (and inexpensive) addition of something like LED lighting, you can give your closet a unique look without having to spend a ton.
New Flooring Can Complement Your Closet
There are few things worse than having a gorgeous custom closet with carpeting that hasn’t been updated in years. You’d be surprised by just how much of a difference can be made by swapping out flooring. Maybe you want all-new carpeting, or you’d rather go with sleek hardwood. Whatever you choose, this can give your closet a unique flair.
Different Hanger Options Might Be What You Need
Instead of relying on plastic or wire hangers, consider more upscale options, like satin-padded hangers, or wooden hangers. In the case of wooden hangers, not only do they look classic and classy, but they also don’t bend or warp over time as plastic and wire hangers do.
Seating Can Enhance Form and Function
When you’re overhauling your closet, you’re always looking for ways to get more storage. If you can do that while also adding convenience and putting in something that will accent the rest of the space, even better.
Pacific Closet & Garage notes that seating options with built-in storage add both form and function to custom closets, giving you a place to sit as you put on your shoes while also giving you shelves’ worth of extra space to store anything that doesn’t fit elsewhere in your closet.
New Color Can Really Make Your Closet Pop
When in doubt, it’s always a good idea to update the paint job in your custom closet. With a simple change of color, you can turn an otherwise drab-looking custom closet into something modern, bold, and inviting. This also gives you a great opportunity to harness your creativity and really create a singular space.
Conclusion
You don’t need to be an interior designer to create a unique, memorable, and beautiful custom closet. From touching up the color to putting in lighting, incorporating seating, and more, you have so many choices. Feel free to get creative and try several of these tips to really switch up your custom closet’s look!
