Dressing room do it yourself

You tortured eternal cleaning scattered things? Are you dreaming about arranging a dressing room? Do not rush to abandon this thought, even if your funds are limited! After all, in fact, you can make a dressing room with your own hands without any special financial costs.

Given the size of the living space, a separate room or a corner of the bedroom can serve as a dressing room. Do not think that such a beautiful room interests only beautiful ladies; men are just as pleased when all things are neatly hung and laid out in their places. In such a room it is convenient to store things for a long time. Here they do not spoil, do not hesitate, do not fade and will not be damaged by pests.

Main room requirements

Even if you can not allocate a lot of space for a dressing room, you can equip it with many shelves. The minimum dimensions of such a room are 1x1.5 meters. Hangers, shelves and drawers will fit quite compactly here. It's great if in the dressing room you can make room for changing clothes with a mirror. If your dressing room is very small, then provide ventilation in it, because otherwise the probability of stagnation of air is great, which will lead to the impregnation of things with a stale smell.

The area allocated for the storage of outer clothing as well as dresses may have a depth of 0.5 m, and a height of 1.5 m. The area in which short clothes will be stored may have a slightly smaller size — 0.5 x 1 m. place additional shelves to store things that you use less often.

We make a dressing room in a closet, niche or corner of the room

The equipment of a quality place for a dressing room does not necessarily have to provide a special separate room designed for this purpose. Select a zone under the dressing room, believe me, it is possible in an ordinary apartment. Do you have a non-applicable niche in which, apart from an unnecessary pile of things, nothing more fits? Then immediately free her from the trash!

First of all, give up cabinet furniture, which occupies a lot of space in a small area. You can make or buy special designs "boiserie" and "loft". They have mobile cabinets, no extra walls. This approach will facilitate the process of creating a dressing room. Pay special attention to the choice of the door. If the niche is in the bedroom, then to increase the space, it is better to use a translucent or frosted glass. Arranging the pantry in the hallway? Then choose a door that matches the tones of the wall or decorate the doorway, because there are always several doors in the corridor.

In the apartments of small size, a dressing room, equipped in the corner of the room, is the most sensible solution in the allocation of space.

The fact is that the placement of standard typical furniture in this case is simply unacceptable. In the corner dressing room you can fit a lot of necessary things, often much more than in the closets.

The functionality of the room for the wardrobe, namely, its internal structure must necessarily meet the requirements of practicality, convenience and spaciousness.

A room for storing a wardrobe of small dimensions can be in the shape of a triangle, a trapezoid, the letter "G" or pyatishtenkov. Center the bar in the center and on the sides of the shelf. Accessories and small items can be placed in specially designated baskets, lattice containers and mobile pedestals. As for shoes, it is more practical to store it, installing a special design on the door or in the lower part of the dressing room. Boxes for storage of all footwear, happen both closed, and open type. In addition, the bottom is convenient to keep household appliances, designed for frequent use. On the upper shelves it is better to pack those things that are used infrequently in everyday life.

Wardrobe small size, located in the corner of the room, have many advantages. For example, in small rooms they are indispensable. In appearance, they resemble a wardrobe, but are placed in a place where its usual counterpart does not fit. Thus, you can maximize the use of space, for example, in the bedroom. The wardrobe room is incomparably functional, stylish and roomy!

For hangers you can build a tubular structure of chrome products. You can buy them at any hardware store in the city. You will need a pipe for a horizontal hanger and a vertical rack. In addition, buy a connector and 3 heels for pipes attached to the wall, floor and ceiling.

If the allocated space allows, place the bar on the right or left side of the entrance for the entire length. Practice shows that this alignment is optimal. Construct the corner shelves - they will occupy the space of a direct far wall and one of the sides from the entrance. Constructing shelves, you can also use chrome pipes, as this is probably the most economical option. In addition, this type of air construction will allow you to easily get to each shelf. Chrome pipes must pass through all shelves. They will be attached to the ceiling and to the floor.

Leave a small space in front of the entrance. This will allow you to move around the room during operation. By the door you can attach a large mirror that will give you the opportunity to change clothes.

Mount the drywall construction

1. Before you begin assembling the frame, make a profile markup and cut from it blanks for the ceiling, floor and walls. You can do this with the help of specially designed scissors, which can be purchased at the hardware store.
2. You can install a floor profile using self-tapping screws and a screwdriver.
3. Now proceed to the installation of wall vertical profiles, and after - horizontal ceiling.
4. To improve rigidity and structural strength, fasten transverse profiles using self-tapping screws. Take care of the accuracy of the work in order not to damage the existing wall covering and not to injure yourself.
5. After you have assembled the profile frame, make it plasterboard plasterboard in two layers, between which lay the insulation.
6. In the same space is appropriate to lay the wiring. Instead of drywall, you can use chipboard or MDF board.
7. At the end of the frame plastering, apply a primer on the plasterboard walls, glue the seams. The easiest method of finishing plasterboard walls is wallpapering, but if you wish, you can do woodwork or use decorative panels. Opinions of experts agree that the most durable finishing option is to paint the walls, but for this you need to carefully pierce and polish the walls.
8. The most practical way of laying the floor in the dressing room is tile. But you can also cover the floor with linoleum, carpet or put parquet.

In the dressing room of drywall doors must be installed, for example, sliding. Their main advantage is that they take up little space compared to the swing model. As for lighting, it is better to arrange it inside, and only one spotlight will suffice. Additional lighting is usually located near the mirror. Lovers of comfort will appreciate the special lighting built directly above the shelves and hangers.

Wardrobe rack

If you pick things up with a taste, arrange them carefully and hang them up, and keep them clean, the dressing-rack will become an aesthetic and stylish decoration of your home. There is a strict condition - the frame and the shelves must be inconspicuous against the background of the contents.

The constructive solution of the dressing-rack is extremely simple: the supporting frame is made of perforated profiles that are attached to the wall, and the shelves for clothes can be made of ordinary dark laminate. For aesthetic reasons, it is better to install the mesh exclusively for storing shoes. And it should be fixed on the metal struts.

Rods for storage of hangers can be attached to the struts or the underside of the shelves. Metal fittings used for the decoration of wardrobe racks, usually has a fairly high cost. However, you can save. How? As a strut, you can use pieces of rod, having a diameter of about 0.6 cm.

They may even be rusty and not very even. Heat-shrinkable tubes, which are used for electrical insulation, are suitable for trimming bars. They are made of polyisopropylene of different colors. The diameter of the tube should be 2 times the diameter of the rod. Heat the heat-shrinkable tubes with a household hairdryer to 70-80 ?. In this case, the plastic layer will be about 2-3 mm. You can remove the markings on the heat-shrinkable tube by wiping it with a cotton swab with alcohol or a scouring powder intended for cooking stoves, or with dish detergent. The tube will hide all the irregularities and roughness of the metal.

As for the shelves, you can make them from ordinary cheap laminate, which must be pre-cut to the specified length. To the width of the shelves was appropriate, laminate connect locks. Now you can do the layout of things.

We collect wardrobe-case

Wardrobe-case is called a rectangular high case, equipped with a retractable hanger frame, which is also equipped with shelves. For a long time, people have made unsuccessful attempts to create such a structure. All failures were associated with the guiding mechanism. In all cases, the hanger, pushed to the limit or just to half, was twisted and wedged. But, not so long ago, the problem was solved. Now as the guides used the lateral ends of the shelves with PVC edging in 2 mm. You will also need paired guide rollers. They are fixed on the side walls of the case from the inside, so that they are shifted as much as possible forward.

This design comes inside the case from a light hand push. Shelves on which it is envisaged to store small things provide small sides of PVC sheets. This is intended to ensure that arbitrarily dangling linen does not fall under the rollers, which can put the dressing room out of order.

During the installation process you should:

• Assemble, first hanger.
• Fasten the rollers to the sides of the case.
• Make a check on the correct location of the rollers in height.
• Now you can attach to the sidewall, which will be adjacent to the wall, back and top walls.
• Push in the hanger and attach the opposite sidewall.
• Fasten the lower part of both sidewalls with a U-shaped galvanized strip. She will be a stopper, which prevents spontaneous rolling out of the hanger with shelves.
