Closet Organization System Redesign 🛠️

The one where I spontaneously redesign our closet organizer system over holiday break. The original IKEA Aurdal system is now in the guest room and our closet has the Boaxel system. Sort of a pain to install, but overall very sturdy and functional.

Why you might ask?

• The new setup provides space for more folded items without permanently blocking two utility access points that are in this closet.

• Wiredrawers are also helpful for smaller items, and slide more smoothly than those offered with the other system

• High top shelf I included fits storage bags for seasonal items accessible without a step stool thanks to the bag handles.

• This eliminated some ugly, temporary under bed storage and fits all our items without needing another dresser which there isn’t room for in the space.

... Read moreMy journey to achieving ultimate Closet Organization wasn't always smooth sailing. Like many of you, I started with what seemed like a good idea – my Take 1 was the IKEA Aurdal system. It served its purpose for a while, but I quickly realized its limitations, especially when it came to maximizing space and handling utility access points in my closet. That's when I decided it was time for a complete The Redesign. After much research, I landed on the IKEA Boaxel closet system, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer for finding the best organizational shelves for closet! What makes Boaxel stand out, in my opinion, is its incredible versatility. Unlike more rigid systems, Boaxel allows you to truly customize every aspect, from shelf height to drawer placement, making it perfect for creating a personalized boaxel closet system that perfectly fits your needs. I wanted more than just shelves; I needed smarter storage. If you're looking for boaxel ideas or boaxel closet ideas, here are a few things I learned. For those tricky smaller items, the ikea boaxel drawers are an absolute must-have. I opted for the wiredrawers, and they glide effortlessly, making it easy to access socks, intimates, and even folded t-shirts. This was a significant upgrade from my previous system's drawers. For bulky items or seasonal storage, don't underestimate the high top shelf. My hack? I chose storage bags with handles so I can easily pull them down without a step stool. This simple choice eliminated the need for unsightly under-bed storage, making my space feel so much cleaner. For anyone considering the ikea boaxel closet system installed, be prepared for a bit of a project. While it's generally straightforward, having a second pair of hands is incredibly helpful, especially when mounting the main rails. My advice: measure everything twice (or thrice!), use a good stud finder, and don't rush the process. The sturdy and functional result is absolutely worth the effort. Whether you have a spacious ikea boaxel walk in closet or a more compact boaxel wardrobe, the modular components mean you can adapt the system to fit almost any space. I've seen some amazing ikea boaxel hack ideas online too, like adding custom fronts to drawers or integrating lighting, which really shows the system's potential beyond its basic components. Seriously, if you're craving a more organized home, diving into ikea boaxel inspiration for your closet organization is a fantastic place to start.
