In this week's video, I used €25 VARD Ikea doors to makeover my small storage wardrobe. I tweaked the IKEA doors to fit my wardrobe to make a custom built-in effect unit. I gave my small space a satisfying declutter, paint job and then fitted the new Ikea wardrobe doors. Let me know what you think of my small space glow up!

The glass doors do make the area look bigger and it's nice that you can see the lovely items that are stored. The solution for the gap worked perfectly and looks like it was meant to be that way!

Such a great upgrade with the glass doors! Makes it look more feminine while serving it's purpose as storage and display! Lovely outcome, Catherine!

Loved giving if a new look 😍

Has to be done! So much cheaper and adds that extra personality and charm ❤️ thanks for stopping by X

Another brilliant job. New doors really finish off the area perfectly. You never fail to amaze me how you never get paint on your lovely clothes x

Girl that is Pinterest worthy. The strip of wood gives the cabinet extra detailing. Love it!

For a second there i thought today was thursday 😅 what a lovely surprise 🥰

@samanthachung4844 2 года назад

You go Girl! Tear into those walls to give yourself some more storage space. Ask your brothers. You'll know if you hit a major beam, then stop. You can put your summer/winter clothes in there. You know how to hang a door to hide the closet. You just do it! I know you can. Please film it though, you are tres inspiring. Thank you for sharing.

@stephm281 2 года назад

Great fix with the gap between the doors. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I just love when you're #doingadainty and working through things! Buy a door that's close, then modify as needed. Perfect custom fit! Love it!

@laviniajohnson9210 2 года назад

You are the only channel that I can watch and watch again. Really admire your confidence using a drill. We need a tutorial on what size drill plug and screws for different jobs please. Revamped cupboard looks great. Pure genius putting the strip of wood on the door.

@penepat9111 2 года назад

I love seeing the mess everywhere half way through the wardrobe revamp, it’s cheers me up because that’s exactly what I’m like 😂😂. Nothing like having a mini makeover and a clear out to make the whole world seem a little better 😉🥰

@level-uplearning5095 2 года назад

You go girl....after you get that clearance from those in the 'know'! Nothin' stops Catherine and her side kick Blondie.

@juliederry3719 2 года назад

I must say Catherine “that’s a job well done” you’ve certainly pulled it out of the bag, and I look forward to seeing what you’ve decided to do with that extra storage space too, tfs x Julie

@DaintyDiaries 2 года назад

Thanks so much Julie! X

@carolmiller8811 2 года назад

It looks lovely and, despite your modest opinion of your work, is Pinterest-worthy! As part of my husband's profession (he has his own business), he does renovations and repairs, so I can tell you that you filled the gap exactly correctly. It is perfect. And the 3 baskets were just right. I can't wait for the "door into Narnia!" (You always crack me up.) You will definitely want a professional to come in to determine where your electrical and plumbing are running behind the walls - don't want you flooding your beautiful home or electricuting yourself! ❤

@sirennemesis 2 года назад

That is so clever sticking that wooden strip to the door! Genius!

@lynnslosson5937 2 года назад

Your idea for that gap is wonderful. Does not obstruct your shelves. Great job as always!

@starbrown1219 2 года назад

Clever idea on attaching the strip to the door instead of the cabinet. Smart.

@christineh5790 2 года назад

What a lovely and inspiring vlog to wake up to, here in my 12th week of lockdown in New Zealand! I’m about to purchase an Ikea Billy bookcase with three glass doors to replace my traditional dresser in the kitchen as a china storage cabinet. I have decided to make my fine dinner ware and tea-sets more accessible for everyday use (as you do in your home) and therefore be able to enjoy the beauty of seeing them and using them daily. Love your videos and I hope many support your site by watching the ads - or replaying each vlog a few more times? 😉😅💖🇳🇿

@kitchenworker446 2 года назад

This is genius!...I loved the fact that you ploughed on even though you had hiccups!

@EmmaDurrans 2 года назад

You did such a great job with the makeover and you really can’t tell that you had to add another piece of wood to hide the gap. It works really well! 😊

@DaintyDiaries 2 года назад

Thanks so much Emma! X

@alison__16 2 года назад

"More storage, more shite" 😁😁 sums me up in one sentence 😁. Your new doors look incredible and the gap solution was genius 👌

@alexisb.8965 2 года назад

Brilliant job, Katherine! Very clever to use the scrap wood to hide the gap. I thought it was genius to stick to the door instead of blocking your storage

@annbutler8302 2 года назад

Making more storage of those spaces will be great. I have seen people make dressers in there, putting in drawers for recessed dresser. A lady I follow her blog she has, like you were saying for the doors on the side of you couch, doors for storage of her Christmas decorations. Use every bit you can. Love your solution for your new doors, looks normal.

@dwynn57 2 года назад

I think the glass doors do make the space look bigger! I think the solid doors just closed the space in. I think it turned out wonderfully be proud of yourself! your brother is so funny! thanks for sharing! oxo

@elizabethhair723 2 года назад

with very limited space I'm thrilled to have ordered my first Ikea item, a thin tall six shelf unit called the Billy. I found we have an Ikea on my Island and though they didn't have what I wanted in stock, they quickly ordered it for me and it's come from abroad, can't wait to get it for my books.

@MrCarrington 2 года назад

Love the wardrobe hack!! The storage will be so handy in the bedroom, I'm thinking can you squeeze in a cabrio balcony in there too! :)

@andree824 2 года назад

Is there anything you cannot do?! New doors turned out beautifully. Great job.

@emilysmith2784 2 года назад

@DaintyDiaries 2 года назад

Oh I'm so glad❤️ thanks for stopping by today 🥰

@cherylmckay6806 2 года назад

I love the glass, I think the door pulls you had on before would play off the glass inserts. It always amazes me how you tackle so many projects. So nice that you have an Ikea close by.

@annroberts3635 2 года назад

The area does look great with the glass doors.. You are so brave to take on that kind of a project. I am beginning to think that there is nothing you can’t do. Ann from Va. USA 🇺🇸

@poodlegirl55 2 года назад

It's hard to believe that there is still anywhere in the house that can be made over, but this was a big improvement. Why not see your pretties even when not in use? Great job!!

@c.j.2576 2 года назад

DD: GREAT JOB!! You show NO FEAR in tackling your projects. Keep the faith...more storage is ALWAYS a good thing! :D

@tmcdgreen 2 года назад

I love it! The glass in the door gives the landing depth that it didn't have before. Great inspiration!

You are such a darling! An incredible motivator whose confidence and enthusiasm make me feel quite pathetic lol. I wouldn’t dream of touching a jigsaw! The cabinet makeover is gorgeous too. Well done that girl 👍🏻👍🏻

Gorgeous! I'm sure you've doubled the value of your beautiful home!

@vickinoeske1154 2 года назад

Brilliant idea replacing the doors. The glass panels make the entire area look high-end and so pretty.

@Jo.H. 2 года назад

Hi Catherine, the cupboard look’s lovely with the glass doors, you did a great job. And I’m glad you attached the plank of wood to the door, much easier access. Opening the eaves in your bedroom would add great storage, good idea getting someone in to check it out. Enjoy the rest of your week 😊💖

@AnnieKat_ 2 года назад

Beautifully done! So glad you bridges the gap by extending the door 😊

@itsacarolbthing5221 2 года назад

Look at Blondie - she's knackered, poor girl! Loved the end result, especially the insert on the doors, fab idea. I would have put crystal faceted handles on, purely because I love them, and they're so light reflective. They're also easier for my older hands to grasp without your smacking my nails, which I wear long.

@emb54 2 года назад

The wardrobe looks great. I like that you attached the strip of wood to the door. Brilliant!

@olieramirez.823 2 года назад

Absolutely gorgeous ‼️‼️✨✨✨ the mirror absolutely beautiful, it gives so much character ❣️😘 stunning just stunning 🤗🤗✨🥳🇺🇸

@labbrockington7854 2 года назад

The doors came out really good. If you still have the old doors you might be able to use them on your new cabinet. Love your pink pj's they look so soft . God bless you and keep you

@33me- 2 года назад

Your brother is right it does look bigger! Well done great job ! And I like the idea of the extra in the wall storage . Take care 😊.

@carollove8752 2 года назад

I was not ready for when you opened the closet door! 🤦‍♀️😂😂😂 glass doors are a real motivation. This turned out really nice!

@DaintyDiaries 2 года назад

Don't judge me 😂😂 we all have that one cupboard 😂 thanks for stopping by Carol ❤️

@barbarajennings1057 2 года назад

Very good that you attached the board to the door. Good thinking girl.

@sheliabowen7094 2 года назад

I have to say I admire your talent for so many things you can do. Your Beret is precious on you and it would look great at your book signing. Of course I love Blondie. Every thing looks great ❤️

@DaintyDiaries 2 года назад

Thanks Sheila x

@audriejurgens5259 2 года назад

Brilliant job, Catherine! Excellent solution to the gap! Your videos make my week ❤️ If you feel the landing is dark, you could add some LED lights spotlighting or backlighting the flowers.

@ladyt2587 2 года назад

Lol Catherine so funny about you needing up your Tuesday and Thursday, I do things all the time like that. No worries it just means we got to enjoy another one of your videos 2 days sooner. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I love how your doors and your closet turned out. Good idea have great day or in your case evening.

@beckymeldrum7022 2 года назад

I love it! You never sit still, you’re always creating! You go girl!!

@martinalemmerhofer6937 2 года назад

Such perfect solution, it looks lovely. Yes, it does make the space look more spacious and the pretty stuff behind the glass doors looks nice. You could even put battery operated/ rechargeable spotlights in for extra cosy look and light. Well done, it must be extra nice now coming up the stairs.

@DaintyDiaries 2 года назад

Yes! Lights be so cute x

@beluciano3 2 года назад

Nice look. Enjoy open and airy look. When I was a young girl our knee walls had built in dresser drawers. We had three bedrooms upstairs all having them in walls. Gave us more bed space (five children) and play room floor space. Blessings to ya.

Your not just a pretty face, you are a super talent ! Great idea and wonderful outcome.💙💙💙

@marionandrews176 2 года назад

Your doors look great! Brilliant idea to put the strip of wood on the door instead of the cabinet itself.

@songbird3094 2 года назад

The new doors make a big difference. I admire the way you're willing to give anything a go. There's so much I want to do, but I don't trust myself. I've a load of things bought for different projects, but they're just gathering dust! 😂😂

@janetbyrne7765 2 года назад

I love these “sprucing up my space” videos you’ve been doing! You are slowly ploughing through you house making it perfect in every detail! Very inspirational!

@DaintyDiaries 2 года назад

Im so happy you are liking them Janet! X

@itsmewende 2 года назад

Catherine I think here in the states your home would be considered a Cape Cod, those homes do use that area upstairs for storage. Your hall make over is just lovely, I bought an IKEA tv cabinet years ago, it has a strip on one door, and yes there is a gap, I think it just adds to the charm.

@ggmax2958 2 года назад

Love the glass doors. That looks great. You did an awesome job. You always make projects look so easy. Love your sense of humor. Can't wait for more

@ShadyManMI5 2 года назад

You're such an inspirational woman. Thank you 👍💚

@kridder1018 2 года назад

Not only do the new doors make the area look bigger, but brighter too if that makes sense. I would imagine it would be easy to put some battery operated led lights in there if you wanted a little bit of light in the area for night time or something. I have always referred to those kind of behind the wall areas as attic crawl spaces. The second floor of my house has a few of them, and they are lined with thin plywood for the walls and insulation, but ours don't really have wires or pipes. The previous owners used to use them, but we just don't have a need for them at the time as we have a full basement as well, which can hold a lot of stuff. lol. I am like you, I can not function if there is a mess. My brain just seems to focus on how the mess needs to be cleaned and I can't focus on the task at hand. Thank you for yet another tip! I swear you are just full of them, but I love it all.

@mecraftytoo 2 года назад

Oh how fabulous, you have a beautiful house, and I’m amazed at how you come up with such great ideas for improving. You certainly aren’t afraid to tackle jobs yourself. Fantastic Catherine, all credit to you girl. Hugs x

@Jo-im6iz 2 года назад

Latest project looks great Catherine. Nice to watch your ideas manifest!😊

@jot4336 2 года назад

I think you did a great job adding that strip of wood. Idk how old your home is, but that's exactly what a carpenter would have done back in the day, so I think it actually looks like it has always been like that🤔

@lindanave6390 2 года назад

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again YOU’RE AS CUTE AS A BUTTON and I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!! Your videos make me smile and are always inspiring!! 👍👍

@MyWaywardLife 2 года назад

Girl! Ya did it again!! It looks awesome! I think the glass doors bring in some depth and as a result makes the space appear bigger! I was totally thinking, put the strip on the back end of the door so it gives the illusion that it’s a shelf (what are they called…) brace? Divider? But you don’t block access to the actual shelf… and you did just that! Felt as right as rain that I was channeling my inner Dainty as I watched heehee! Great minds and all that! 😄. Do we still get a Thursday video as well?!😃🤗🙏🏽

@cathylynnpietranton 2 года назад

Hi Catherine We really like the glass doors it does make the area look larger.💚❤

@Patti-1962 2 года назад

Oh my goodness Catherine, we are SO similar in how we "collect" things in closets and anywhere else there is storage. I have to re-organize my craft closets a couple of times a year. You did a beautiful job on these doors as I am always impressed with your carpenter's skills!!♥♥
