Tuesday DIY: a fab walk-in wardrobe on a shoe-string

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">In the first chapter of <a href="http://www.gretchenrubin.com/" target="_blank">The Happiness Project</a>, Gretchen Rubin talks about how de-cluttering and organising your home is the first step to feeling happier. I have to say, I admire people who make organising spaces look so effortless. One girl who knows her stuff is the talented interior designer Nina Holst from the Norwegian blog <a href="http://stylizimoblog.com/" target="_blank">Stylizimo</a>. She created this fab DIY walk-in-wardrobe on a shoe-string budget.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxNemYK9rNX_FSCq0SaRZb8ra9BsL4bEJmwW38skiTle-kkQSOrG-qopK7pZkDqy0uCAJSpyisUcGA-FJF4IZYnlYQIzB9fd_Y_XyZpzYcwTFkTir_6SwmTKBxLO1UvPh0a2WD7OzORwc/s1600/styl1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
