Transforming storage in a spare bedroom
Fashion and lifestyle blogger Josie, came to Sharps to help transform her small, spare bedroom in her South West London home, into the walk in wardrobe she always dreamed of. Read her story and watch her videos, which detail everything from the design and build, to exactly how she organises and displays her beautiful clothes!
Using the small bedroom for clothes storage
As a fashion blogger and clothes hoarder – clothing storage has always been a bit of a problem.
In our 3 bedroom South West London home, we always used the smallest bedroom for storage. We had a couple of sets of drawers, and a large wardrobe that was always packed with my clothes. We also had a standalone rail in the second bedroom that would be used for my ‘overflow’ – it was far from ideal.
I found myself getting stressed about the lack of organisation, and started researching storage solutions for the smallest room. A walk-in wardrobe always seemed like a far-away luxury, something you only had if you owned a huge house with loads of bedrooms – but now I know that is not the case.
Sharps: The fitted wardrobe specialists
After much consideration of all of our options, we decided to bring in the professionals to help us analyse the best use of space for our third bedroom. We invited Sharps to come and chat to us about converting the room into a walk-in wardrobe.
The initial consultation was incredibly useful – with measurements being taken to understand exactly how much rail space we needed, and questions asked about how we’d like the room to look visually, and how we’d use it. The Sharps consultant even took note of the height of my ankle boots, to ensure that he allowed enough height when it came to building the shoe shelves!
