I am shocked closet rods cost so much. I have wood curtain rods that do not fit my new home. They are a bit less than 1.5" diameter. Good or bad idea?
Depending on the distance of the rod in the closet, will determine how much it will sag. You may want to consider supports in the run to help the sag
Thanks!! What do you think about putting them 2 high on the side walls of the closet, perpendicular @ 31" each instead of one long one parallel to the door. Womanspeak...... I'd like to do something like the pic below, and use the middle for toy storage.
Right now I have the materials here, so I won't have to buy anything. YMMV is just fine Thanks!! My husband can do his interior design thing in a couple of years when we actually have flooring/paint/etc. And by that time if they work alright, they might become permanent. Thank you all who gave me your opinions.
Hopefully I get a new custom closet for the lil one this weekend!! Dear husband did some designs for company in colorado years ago so he will do this one. It will be pine unlike they sell on the internet, but a can of paint will take care of that! I hit a great sale on the internet on canvas bins in lil girl pastel colors that he incorporating We'll see how the schedule works out
Just moved the clothes rod in my wife's closet. Wood is cheaper but the hangers don't slide as easy as with metal
he had time to buy the lumber today and brought it home tonight. Good thing he ran my seldom used pickup to charge it LOL. Looking forward to this weekend
progress! Tomorrow will be caulk and paint, then hang rods. Triple hangs on both sides Her clothes are little so there will be room on the bottom to store toys. I have a dozen of the fabric boxes that will be filled for the narrower shelves.
NOT RECOMMENDED! Dear Husband has a tiny piece of sawdust in his eye. Despite a whole bottle of eyedrops and my futile attempts at finding the piece its still there. Hopefully he will get to the optometrist tomorrow but til then he did some of this in anticipation of digging for it later. (same bottle I used for gargle on New Years Eve for terribly sore throat yooperdave )
PS Woodwidow , this is the same closet lil one helped me paint and left her footprints in We will be leaving the linoleum in there for a few years and use large throw rugs.
