Bright and Fun Modern Girls Closet

March 29, 2017 By BrightGreenDoor

Bright Fun Girl Closet

Hey friends! It’s time for the $100 Room Challenge Reveal! Over the course of this month I joined a bunch of bloggers to makeover spaces for $100 or less. I decided to makeover our daughter’s walk in closet into a bright and fun modern girls closet. Here is where we started:

It’s embarrassing. Total disaster. She had a beautiful bedroom and a totally junky closet. I started by just removing all the clothes that were too big and too small. Relocating things like my scrapbook collection (why was this here anyways?!?) and painting the walls. Because I only had $100 to work with it was TIGHT.Bright Modern Girls Closet

To replace the individual light bulb I found this Crystal Light on an Amazon Warehouse Deal for $21 and spray painted it gold. I feel like it adds just the right amount of girly glam.

The wallpaper is just cutout remnants from when I wallpapered her bedroom.Organized Kids Walk In ClosetI added a larger more functional mirror, eating up $14 of my small budget. It’s worth it though watching her check herself out in it daily! I also added these Brass Hooks from Target, giving her a place to hang her bags and towel.Bright and Fun Girls Walk in Closet

Using some clothespins, epoxy, and a piece of scrap wood I created this headband organizer for less than $2. I love that now we can see all of her headbands on display.Headband Organizer

The little shelf is just an Ikea Spice rack that I had on hand. I didn’t use the bar that’s supposed to go across the front so that I could fit her lotion and hair products up here. These are used daily so it’s nice to have easy access.Headband StorageThe new dresser is the real show stopper in here. I shared an entire post about it here. It was a $30 thrifted score that I painted with Amy Howard One Step Paint. I also spent $12 on some new drawer pulls for the dresser.

By removing some of the extra shelves this also gave us a space to store her dollhouse up and off the floor. This frequently gets brought out into her room to play with, but fits nicely here at the end of the day.

I wanted to buy these bright blue bins for storage, but they were out of my budget and ended up being too tall for the top shelf. Instead I just used these green baskets that I had on hand.Pink Girls Closet

I’m so sorry for the terrible grainy photos. It turns out that photographing a small dark space is a real feat! Between trying to get a decent angle and enough light it was a real struggle!Girl's Walk In Closet

When you count the $13 that I spent on her closet knob, I ended up spending $108 on this makeover. Honestly I’m impressed that I was able to stay so close to the budget! By having the pink paint, wallpaper remnants, and gold spray paint on hand I was able to save quite a bit. I love that now her closet fits with the rest of her bedroom! Bright and Fun Modern Girls Closet

Just for good measure, here is a reminder of the pathetic “before” and bright and fun “after”.

    I’m so happy to see the dresser in the closet because my daughter just did the same thing. Sometimes it just makes sense to do that. I love the light fixture and the gold clothes pins!

      Thanks friend! It does totally make sense, especially when her closet it so big and room so small! I’m loving the glam of the light too!

    I love what you have done in this closet. The headband holder is genius and the pink dresser is so pretty! I agree with you on the photography. I told my husband that on this challenge, I used power tools and did a lot of painting but the hardest part, by far, was trying to photograph my powder room with no light. I did the best I could be I was not pleased with my photos.

      Gah darn photography! I’ll be doing the “One Room Challenge” in a space that has a window and I’m totally looking forward to being able to photograph in natural light!

    This is just the cutest closet I’ve ever seen. I’m swooning over that light fixture and the beautiful hot pink dresser. I want one for me!!! I also love how you carried over the mural into the closet. The whole space looks fabulous.

    I know it’s for a kid but… I want this closet! I love that fuschia dresser and I will definitely be making a headband organizer like that for my little girl. What a great idea!

    • BrightGreenDoor says

      April 4, 2017 at 2:43 pm

      The headband organizer was the easiest and cheapest DIY of this whole space! I totally recommend it!

    How cute is this closet?! It’s got to be the happiest closet I’ve ever seen. LOVE the headband rack with all the clothespins. Brilliant! And the light fixture is perfect. Being that you bought and redid a dresser, I think only going over $8 is incredible! I am SO happy you joined this challenge. Awesome job!!!

    • BrightGreenDoor says

      You’re too sweet. I was pretty happy about only going over by $8 too!
