House Series # 5: Partitions for your bedroom
partitions do double duty - carve your spaces and provide storage. Am loving this hack room divider, which really puts the wardrobe system Pax in a new light.
Pax dressing divider
Phyllis is a lucky woman with a handy husband who installed the cabinet splitter / room for her.
The radiant woman said: "My husband installed a row parallel to two of Pax wardrobes as a wardrobe system divider / room in our bedroom. We had two challenges:
1. How complete the back row of a cupboard shells, and
2. How to install lighting in the closet self closet system for a room with carpet. rigid cable would have been very expensive.
He finished the back shell with laminate flooring and Ikea silver trim corner of Home Depot. (We still need to add a piece of art on the "wall".)
(Moreover, treatment the window is just heavy nonwoven fusible interfacing to a fabric store like Jo-Ann. I cut the decorative circles above using pots and pans and lids attached to each room window with double adhesive tape. it has been for about 3 years now.)
Ikea lights were connected to an X-10 system remote control lighting which uses wireless to operate the lights. It allows me to turn on the lights of the winter bed when it gets dark (I really like this feature.) Photo right is the wireless switch
. The switch is not hard wired - it sticks to the shell with glue
This is how the lighting set-up looks !. The first image below is the outlet for closet lighting and in the following image, you can see a white pipe up the side to the top of the hull of the closet.
Below is the unit of the transmitter on top of the hull. There transformers also for each device and a power strip
My husband is an electrician by all means -. He's just a guy handy and really had no problems installing this system. "
an Bonde divider
Olivier made a divider too, but with the Bonde . He said: "Living in a (small) loft space turned out to be quite a challenge and at one point we needed to make a room divider to separate the space of the dining room
white unit in the divider unit is a white 4 door Ikea Bonde that we already had. the unit is a small 39 "AKURUM wall cabinet kitchen with a frosted glass door. The cube tray is just a few left on Järpen trays cut and colored to match the rest
