Thanks for the links. For those of you who dont know what the fuss is about, I want the WIR to be big enough so that when I hang my nicley ironed clothes up the stay that way!! Its all about organisation. A place for everything. The ottomans you see in these large robes are there for practicality, you sit on them while putting socks or shoes on. The shoe racks are so you can see all the selections at once to see what best goes with an outfit. the old saying 'out of sight out of mind' applies to me, if I cant se it I forget about it, so better to have them all on show. Now, I might have to build one in the garage - we take our shoes off to come inside While all this practical, it doesnt hurt for it to look good as well Paula Re: Walk in robes (drool and dream) 3Jun 08, 2008 11:03 am Trust Paula to find this post first!!!
