It is good to be back, this is my first post in over two weeks. We have been under construction around here and it was too crazy to even get on my computer some days. My dad is a builder and was down here for the past two weeks along with my husband and father-in-law and they were putting a new mudroom onto our house. It is close to being done but there are still a few things that need to be done, as soon as it is ready I will share it with you.
Today I am going to continue my home tour and show you the last room of the Master Bedroom, the walk-in closet. You can view the Master Bedroom tour here and the Master Bath tour here. With each room I went into on our first visit of the home I fell more in love. All my life I have wanted a walk-in closet, so when I saw this one I was in love! Our walk in closet is a little less functional as a closet the past year or so (I will explain below) but I still love it.
This is what you see when walking in…….my husband takes up most of the hanging space.
This is back behind the door where I keep all my things. On the top shelf I have a colored basket for each of my kids for all there special things and baby books. On the second shelf I have some of my craft things and all my greeting card storage. And of coarse lots of space for my shoes!
Below, is more of my husband things and baby blanket storage.
And here is why our closet is less functional………..it also serves as a nursery! Before you call me crazy I can explain! Our youngest, Leon, has always had so much trouble sleeping. We have tried it all, he has slept in almost every room of the house, in every baby bed we have owned and no matter what we tried he didn’t sleep. We even tried co-sleeping for a while. Well when he was getting a little older and wasn't sleeping well when he could see us I decided to try out closet. It has a light, a window, a door, heating ducts…….it is basically a bedroom. So I moved his crib into our closet and that has been his little room since. He really seems to love it too, it is quiet and dark and cozy! So there you have it! I would love to hear all the crazy stories of what you have gone through to get your child to sleep, feel free to share below. 
Leon’s cozy spot!
One of my favorite parts is the window! So cool to have a window in our closet!
So there is our Master Walk-in Closet! What do you think! o you have a walk-in closet? Have you ever used it as a bedroom?
