How
can you use glass and mirrors to update your walk-in closet? If your master
bedroom closet lacks a lux aesthetic edge, take a look at the creative ways
clear and reflective panes can combine form and function.
Create Display Cabinets
Open
the space and display your favorite wardrobe pieces with see-through glass
panel cabinets. Instead of solid wood, install transparent doors. This elegant
walk-in closet storage option:
- Creates
a showcase
. Do you want to show off a designer dress, handbags, or
anything else? Glass-front panel cabinet doors create the perfect showcase
space for your precious pieces.
- Adds
the illusion of extra area
. Can you barely walk into your walk-in? If
your closet isn't spacious, glass panel cabinet doors create a light,
airy, open aesthetic. This creates the visual illusion of extra space.
- Allows
you to organize easily
. You can see every shirt, dress, skirt, or pair
of pants hanging in your closet with glass-front cabinet doors. The
ability to easily see your wardrobe allows you to organize everything.
- Gives
you easy access
. Not only can you organize everything easily, you can
find specific wardrobe picks quickly.
Along with these benefits, glass panel cabinet doors have a
clean, contemporary look that can step up your closet's overall design or
coordinate with the rest of the master bedroom.
Install Floor-to-Ceiling Mirrors
Your walk-in closet doesn't only store clothes. This
bedroom-adjacent area is a dressing room, catwalk, and glam space. This means
you need plenty of reflective surfaces. Over-sized mirrors provide this surface
in a decorative way. Before you install new floor-to-ceiling mirrors in your
walk-in closet:
- Consult
with a professional
. Even though you could hang a full-length mirror
yourself, a mirrored wall will make a bigger impact on the space. This
type of mirror installation requires professional design and installation.
- Choose
the right wall
. Which wall should you cover with a mirror? Make sure
the space is free from cabinets, shelving, or other obstructions. You need
full visibility to make this over-sized option work in your favor.
- Consider more than one wall
. Add the visual illusion of space, create a
light or airy area, and add a luxurious feel to the walk-in closet with two or
more mirrored walls.
If
you don't want to cover an entire wall (or can't cover the full space), talk to
the glass professional about other options. A contractor can custom cut a
mirror to fit part of a wall.
Add Glass Shelves
Does your walk-in closet need extra storage space? Instead
of the same wooden or board shelves everyone else has, consider custom cut
glass. To create stylish yet functional glass shelves in your closet:
- Explore
wall-mounted options
. Wall-mounted glass shelves float above the floor
and give your closet a fresh, clean look. This option is the ideal
showcase for your handbags, shoes, and other accessories. You can also
store folded T-shirts, sweaters, or other lightweight clothing on the
shelves.
- Choose
a stand
- alone shelving unit
. Do you want to reorganize your closet
periodically? A mobile stand-alone glass shelving unit moves to fit these
changes. Discuss sizing options with a contractor to store anything from
smaller shoes to bulkier bedding items.
- Add an artistic design
. Consider an artistic shelving design, such as
a zigzag look or a geometric wall-mounted option.
You don't have to choose a completely clear material for
your walk-in closet's glass shelves. A frosted, etched, or tinted type of glass
creates a standout or luxurious aesthetic. Discuss these custom options with a
qualified glass contractor to make the most of your room's new shelving
upgrades.
