DIY SMALL CLOSET MAKEOVER | How to makeover a small studio apartment closet

Hey guys! I'm Alexandra Gater and I show you how to do rental-friendly upgrades and DIY projects on a budget. New videos every Saturday! Today I’m virtually making over my assistant’s super cramped closet by making use of other storage solutions and some fun wallpaper. I hope this gives you some ideas for how to organize your tiny closet!

I like that you first showed them moving some stuff under the bed. I think often when people say they’re disorganised the issue is just that they’re trying to keep too much stuff in one place. Another good solution is putting shelves above doors or high on the wall - extra storage that doesn’t get in the way

Okay, I wasn't sold on the wallpaper UNTIL I saw it paired with the natural wood elements! Love that sooo much! It suits Alana perfectly.

Love this!! I recently joined the Army and stay in the barracks and have a small closet this is very inspiring as she did it with two people living in the room. Great job!! Exactly the video I was looking for 💚😊

I think the closet looks fantastic! My favorite thing is the under the bed storage - getting seasonal things out of the closet entirely. Great solution and creates so much space. Also love that hamper! I have my own closet, and separate my whites and colors, so this is the perfect hamper! Thanks for showing us that we can do it ourselves with some expert advice!

It looks beautiful but I feel like theres so much wasted space in that closet. Like 3/4 of her wardrobe is under the bed now which would drive me insane

It was so nice to see more of Alana's personality, girl is funny 💞✨

When I clean out my spaces, I give it away on my local buy nothing and trading groups! A great way to give a home to things especially when thrift stores are closed.

Love the "under bed" storage units. Looking good Alana and Alexandra!!!

[jot_scribble]

Amazing makeover! ... and those pom pom earrings!

[Nefertsukia]

I've always used the space under the bed for storage. So I think it's a good extra space to make use of!

[ajaymara]

Thanks for talking us through the process of putting the wallpaper up Alana. It was so honest

[lifeofaimee]

Oh my gosh! Yes! That wall paper is everything!

[Raet]

Love the wallpaper it just comes all together!

[startpage]

Agree. that was a Change and the wall paper is Fun.

[arriannevalidum]

The wallpaper is so unique! Looks great 😊

Much better. My daughter uses under bed storage. Hers have clear plastic tops which are great so you can see what you need without opening each one. Also it's really good to learn how to fold your clothes and stack them sideways rather than on top of each other when storing so that you can see all of them at a glance without having to pull things out.

Your the best.
Now her closet is a piece of art.
