Well, who does not dream of his dressing room? How do you want to rid the bedroom of heavy cabinets, and hide all clothes, boxes with shoes and home textiles away. But hide so that at any moment it would be possible to easily find the right thing. However, even the smallest dressing room in a small apartment is a dream from among the unreal. Or almost unrealistic ...
Choosing a place for the dressing room
The most interesting thing is that with a great desire, even in a very small apartment, you can build a dressing room. Of course, I would like more room in this room. But for lack of opportunities, we must proceed from what we have.
Let's go through your home and think about where you can equip the dressing room. By the way, a self-made dressing room will also become a landmark of your cozy home.
So, where can I arrange a dressing room? Let's start with the smallest utility rooms. Does your apartment have a pantry? Here is the answer. You will say that all sorts of things are stored in the pantry: preservation, vegetables, appliances, home trash. All this, of course, is very important and it is not worth transferring to a prominent place. But to find this all different place - it is quite realistic, if you want, of course. And in the pantry, having built shelves and hangers, your own dressing room, created by yourself, will be arranged.
Do you have a pantry or do not want to use it as a dressing room? Well, this is a master's business! Or maybe there is a niche, for example. Also an option. Only equipping the dressing room here, you have to think about how to aesthetically hide it from the eyes of strangers. After all, you must admit that it’s completely ugly if your things are in front of guests and household members. A great and cheap option is to close such a dressing room with a curtain, a folding door or a screen.
Niches in modern apartments are rare. Then let's see if a dressing room is possible in the bedroom. With your own hands, by the way, here you can do it using ordinary drywall. Where do we start? First things first.
Dressing room in the bedroom
See how much space your closet and chest of drawers take! This is more than half the room! Take it all out of here! You do not need it anymore. And now, when the room is spacious, imagine yourself as a designer and see where the dressing room will be. Do it yourself, by the way, made.
For example, if the width of the room allows, then it’s quite possible to make a dressing room right behind the head of the bed. Using a drywall design, we zon the room. On the dressing room, so that it is convenient for both things and you, you need to allocate at least 1 meter in width. The design is done, sheathed with drywall, papered or painted. Now you need to make shelves and make room for hangers. It is convenient to buy a portable frame for trempels for the dressing room. Separate a place for storing shoes and any small items of clothing.
Do not leave the entrance to the dressing room open. This is, first of all, ugly and unaesthetic. We do not recommend installing the door either, it will turn out very rude. But sliding plastic curtains or vertical blinds with printed silk pattern - just right.
Congratulations, you are the owner of the dressing room!
Wardrobe on the balcony
If you don’t want to say goodbye to your furniture in the bedroom, then we’ll go to the balcony or loggia. Agree, as an option, suitable for the dressing room. But, equipping a place to store your things and clothes here, remember that fabrics and garments are afraid of dampness, excessive moisture, sudden changes in temperature and all kinds of insects. So, equipping the dressing room on the balcony, take care of its insulation, high-quality glazing and mosquito nets on the windows.
Next - everything is simple. When the repair work is over, feel free to invite the furniture maker, who, having taken the dimensions of your balcony, will assemble the necessary shelves and cabinets for the dressing room. Do not want to contact the furniture maker, take care of shelves and drawers yourself. And now your do-it-yourself dressing room is ready!
As you can see, having a dressing room in your own, even very small, apartment is quite possible. And you need - just a desire to realize your dream.
