As we are slowly moving over to the new place, it hit me that our fabulous coat hanging system in our current apt won’t work in the new one.
We took a long wall with plenty of walking space and hung curtain hooks on the wall. We put our heavy winter/wool jackets there. It turned into a functional piece of wall art. We have a huge variety of coats, long, short, grey, patterned, colorful.
This idea came about because our closets are tiny (typical SF) and we have a ton of jackets. I was actually surprised how many I/we had when I started putting them on the wall. Living in cold weather means I need a variety of coats and I certainly can’t wear the same coat every day. From the perspective of my wardrobe, I don’t have nearly enough. However, given my limited closet space I have to choose new coats sparingly.
This was the perfect solution, plus you never had an excuse to not hang up your coat for the day. The new place has a wonderful entry closet that we can hang coats in. I will keep this idea in my back pocket for future city apts.
