If only there was a thought bubble above Eden’s husband in this before picture. What do you suppose he is thinking? “Is there still time to back out?” “I’m not sure but I’m pretty sure this carpet came from Chuck E. Cheese.” “Gosh, those clouds on the ceiling look so real. On Opposite Day.“
Turns out he was thinking “I love my wife sooo much that I am going to turn this clown boudoir into the closet of her dreams! And truthfully, she needs it, because she’s kind of a shoe hoarder, but even more truthfully, I enable her so it’s OK, and gosh darn it, she deserves it. Also, it has no closet and it’s right off the master bedroom, so it’s perfect! Squeeaal!” I’m paraphrasing here. But it went something like that.
Check out Eden’s blog DIYHer for a lot more pictures of her “Mama Cave”, and prepare to be jealous. It’s like a department store in there!

February 14, 2013 at 3:06 PMWow. Seriously, what normal person has so much stuff they need to build a room to closet it? And if they do, why??? I have a tiny 4×5 walk in and it’s more than I can keep up with! (And afford!)
