"The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe!"

We have been researching on how to fit out the wardrobes in the three bedrooms.  We asked EB to leave the square set openings for the wardrobe spaces and they credited us for the doors and shelves.  We wanted to get better inserts and doors installed instead of paying EB a fortune for them to do it.
Ben has visited a few wardrobe installers at Wetherill Park, they all seem to be around that area for some reason.  Anyway, he's been told that we can have quite a few door options, theres mirrored, polyurethane, melamine and opaque glass doors.  We think we should have a mixture of mirrored and opaque glass doors.  I can't see the kids keeping the mirrored doors spotlessly clean.



The wardrobe inserts depend entirely on what our requirements may dictate.  I think we need some drawers and lots of shelves and hanging space.  I don't allow shoes in the bedrooms, so we won't need shoe racks.



We really need to sort this out soon as it's definitely required right after we move in.  More decisions to make and dollars to spend.

  2. Karla, I prefer the opaque doors for sure, that way it won't show the kids fingerprints as much. My daughter wants at least one mirrored door for her robe. We got a few good quotes, just need to decide who to go with now.

  3. I agree, the opaque doors with a mirror on one, is definately the way to go....both stylish wise and less finger marks, and I too do not allow shoes in the rooms, built in shoe racks are in the garage where dirty, smelly shoes should remain!!!

  4. Helen M, we are putting up shoe racks in our garage storage area so that all their shoes can be stored there. So much neater I think.
