I'm barely 3 minutes in and I really want to give cudos to that contractor who was honest and helpful. Those are the kind of people you remember and help build real relationships with their clients
I’m sitting watching this and staring at my own pax system. I’m stuck with a gap at the end not knowing what to do and after seeing your video, I found my solution. Love the handle details. Everyone needs a Dan in their lives ❤️
We've had our IKEA wardrobes for about 11 years now, they are holding up really well, and have no obvious signs of wear. Yours look amazing, I've seen custom units that don't look as good as yours. Love the wallpaper idea too.💕
This install turned out beautiful. The flooring is just to die for. As for the clothes (I have a sneaking suspicion you cheated - - YOU have way more clothes than that!! Where'd you hide them?) lol.
I freaking love y’all’s videos! Y’all are soo nice to share every single little detail and putting in the description section must be a hassle. I really appreciate the work u put into your videos! Me and hubby are buying a house soon and this video is soo helpful!
Dan did amazing work on that floor. He must have a lot of patience. The closet came out looking great and to think it's from IKEa. I love how he did the trims around it and the lights because that's what makes it look so well made. It's wonderful having a husband who knows how to do things. Great job Dan. You are hired.💕
Thanks so much for sharing this video Amie and a massive thanks to Dan for all his hard work and tips and tricks which will come in handy when I do mine! Would have loved seeing you unpack your wardrobe and putting things on hangers and filling up the draws etc......maybe in a different video? I've got my fingers crossed lol. Thanks again guys, fantastic work xxx
Dan is amazingggg, truly in awe!! Labour of love. Can’t wait to see your filming in here. 🥰 the gold accents are such a classy addition. I feel like this is very reminiscent of your closet two homes ago, love love love it!!!
I couldn’t live without my big radial arm compound miter saw, bench saw, and pneumatic nailguns (and compressor). I wish I had spent the extra $250 and got the bench for the miter saw, but I did invest in the rolling bench-mounted table saw, well worth it.
@@ChaseAmie how is the gold spray paint holding up to the hangers sliding back and forth? Asking because I'd like to do this hack but am concerned about the paint quickly wearing down because of friction from the hangers...
Dan has done a fabulous job!!! The closet and floor look soooo good!!! Well done!!! 👍🏼 Could you share what colour and brand spray paint you used on the gold handles? I would like to spray paint over the legs of my coffee table. Thanks.
Oh my goodness both my husband and I saw that same blog post a few months back, and said that when we move into our home, that we would do this exact thing to the closet because outside contractors were super expensive! We can't wait. Closet is gorgeous 😍 💖 Thank You for sharing ❤ 💕
Wow!!! He is so talented!! I hope my partner has a talent to build my wardrobe as beautiful as urs!! Haha i know if i started ended up i’ll do everything except the heavy lifting! Anwy impressed!!!!
Great job to Dan for all the hard work!! Looks so great! And of course, your collection of clothing and bags, and your eye for organizing and styling makes it one of the most beautiful wardrobes I’ve seen! Enjoy ❤️
I’m first one to comment, it’s so lovely. I’m not an IKEA person, except for their organisers, my husband always says he is not putting ikea to our house, this has a nice finish though. I got my wardrobe, kids and study made all custom about few months ago when we moved to our new house. It’s worth every single dollar and I think it adds value to the house. I really like your colour coordination of clothes. 🤗💕
My husband refuse to buy IKEa because he thinks the wood is so bad. We just had ours redone to the way I wanted it. Still trying to organize my stuff. But it has made all the difference and all I had to do was to buy the wood and paint etc. My husband made it all including the drawers, took about a month but it's gorgeous. I am so glad we decided to get it done. But Dan did an amazing job and it's the little touches of the trims and the lights and rails that makes it look so good and well made.
Wow it looks absolutely stunning and high quality too, I would have never guessed it was from ikea, well done guys. I live in Switzerland and I was thinking to get my wardrobe from Italy since it’s cheaper than here, but if I can achieve something similar to this from ikea it has literally changed my mind
Amazing job from Dan, everything looks so good both the wardrobe and the floor. DIY is always a good ideea and so rewarding, but you need to have practical skills and also specific tools.
Great video. My hubby and I have talked about some of the things we want to do to our house and this is one of them, I also want him to add some shelving and drawers to my office which would be similar to this and I think when the time is right I'll make him watch this video so he can see how the molding adds so much. Looks beautiful! He already has tons of tools since he's been replacing our carpet with wood flooring so I'm sure he can do this too. I like how you spray painted the hardware to make it look different from just the plain versions.
Dan the Man woohoo. The wardrobe looks fantastic. What a fantastic tip the contractor gave you. It makes perfect sense we don't think about things like that.
Dan's a keeper! It looks amazing! In some ways better than the known wardrobe brands that cost a fortune but is easily identifiable in people's homes so can lack originality. There's also the added satisfaction in knowing your hubby and mummy set you up! Nice one
It looks fantastic! I actually just finished my own IKEA Pax closet installation but without any customizations. I may add a few items like the handles and painting the bars though. One question I had: I understand most of Dan's customizations except for the drawers "fronts." The IKEA drawers already come with either opaque solid fronts or glass. I can't tell what he did on the front of them to "customize."They look exactly like my solid ones. Thanks!
He cut strips of wood and attached them to the front - just to minimise the gaps between the drawers that IKEA drawers usually have. Totally not necessary to do, just personal preference :)
So lovely! What a gem of a husband! I requested that my curtain rods be raised higher, and before it was over, I thought my hubby and I would divorce. He is not as handy, but he does try. It is very inspiring. Well done!
Dan did an amazing Beautiful for the first time. It's always great when you can save money in every way possible. Mostly it's more appreciated when it's done by yourself. Nicely done Dad. Great job.
I also have a beautiful IKEA Pax Wardrobe. I noticed you have your drawers close together. Did you do something to them or do I just need to get my closer together?
This looks the absolute nuts! How smart and savvy to adapt a standard offering to something so chic! Anyone that’s coughed up the amounts for fitted solutions must be gutted as whilst I like many other influencers dressing rooms they actually don’t look any better ......really good advice too regarding difficult tricky spaces - hope Dan got a treat for it! Fantastic work!! ❤️ xx
Such a beautiful transformation! Dan did a great job on it! Your mum’s so cute helping with the painting. Well done guys! Looking forward to more videos in this set up!
Do you plan on putting up units on the opposite wall? How do all your things fit into just four units? Everything looks so good!!! Like walking into a boutique.
No I'm keeping the other wall bare. We're having a whole wall of wardrobes built in our bedroom and Dan will only be able to fill up a quarter of the space there so I'll use some of that too. Will probably do a seasonal switch :)
A quick tip for anyone considering installing a pax wardrobe they are planning to take when they move house: Consider getting all 50cm wide units. Why? They are much sturdier as the back is only one piece, they're lighter, they're smaller so easier to handle/move, the hanging rails are sturdier and the drawers are much easier to handle.
Amazing closet! I'm trying to do something similar in our house renovation. How do you get power to the lights? Is it connected to a plug socket or the main room light switch?
I'm barely 3 minutes in and I really want to give cudos to that contractor who was honest and helpful. Those are the kind of people you remember and help build real relationships with their clients
I like how you didn’t surround the whole room with the units. Great balance of storage and empty space. He did a phenomenal job with the floors!
Dan did an amazing job with everything, but I am beyond impressed with the herringbone pattern on the floor!! It's beautiful.
Me too! It's my favorite wood floor pattern, I am really impressed that he did this himself. I always figured that itg was super difficult.
@@vmpapillon8984 I know, right?!!
I love it too xx the colour too!
This is amazing

Dan is so handy and did an outstanding job to reconstruct the wardrobe and the flooring thumbs up to Dan
I’m sitting watching this and staring at my own pax system. I’m stuck with a gap at the end not knowing what to do and after seeing your video, I found my solution. Love the handle details. Everyone needs a Dan in their lives ❤️
Hello. How did your closer turn out? Was it hard to put the Pax system together?
Step 1: marry the right guy! 🤪
P nip xero
My husband isn't handy at all!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀
@Kandice M this why I rather be single good for nothing 🙄
So true. You certainly don’t want a spouse who is always against your idea and not supporting your idea
Dan is THE MAN!!! He killed it on those floor. Everything looks amazing.
Your closet looks like a beautiful boutique. I wouldn’t know it was ikea if you didnt say so yourself. Great job.
Dan did a phenomenal job! That herringbone floor is just...chef’s kiss!
Just absolutely godsmacking gorgeous... Love the attention to detail and your mum's touch. Dan is The Man. So happy for you!!!
Although I usually love Amie's content because of her style and wardrobe, this time the like is mostly for Dan! Husband of the year!
Forget about a diamond ring! Just build me a really BIG closet! Lol. Wonderful job! What a dream, Amie! ❤️👜👗👠
Oh those floors are beautiful. He did a awesome Job with the whole room, just beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Just beautiful, Dan deserves a lot of husband points for this, especially if he didn’t yell at you at least once!
LOL, LOL, LOL!
Dan did such an amazing job!!! All that hard work and he isn’t even going to use it. You’ve got a great guy 💛
Wow. If there are more men were like Dan, there would be less disgruntled married women out here
You just compared yourself with a closet😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I'm lucky enough to have one like him as a husband 😁
men would also be if the woman wouldnt just watch and film her man but actually help him..
@@TheManCraZy12 exactly! Women have 2 hands too- crack on
Dan strikes again! He is so talented! First the paintings, now flooring and custom clostes! Great job, the closet and floors are beautiful 😍!
We've had our IKEA wardrobes for about 11 years now, they are holding up really well, and have no obvious signs of wear. Yours look amazing, I've seen custom units that don't look as good as yours. Love the wallpaper idea too.💕
Dan absolutely nailed this wardrobe it's amazing!
I love your closet. The floor, the units, everything is wonderful. Dan did a great job. And I think You and Dan are just the cutest couple.
Not only handsome, he could build a huge closet for her. I wish I had Dan in my life too
This install turned out beautiful. The flooring is just to die for. As for the clothes (I have a sneaking suspicion you cheated - - YOU have way more clothes than that!! Where'd you hide them?) lol.
Dan’s efforts are priceless. He’s a nice guy

I a, getting such good vibes from Dan. You chose each other well, always good to see a happy couple
Out of all the youtube pax hacks I see that your closet looks the best for what I like. Thank you for sharing!
Gorgeous job. Can you share the exact off-white paint you used? What is the color called, and what brand?
Wow ! Amazing job Dan ! This is literally the best IKEA hack I have ever seen 😍
You should have a moveable island with a marble top with wheels on the bottom. Draws all four sides. Good for vlogging and create more storage
You are so blessed to have Handyman Dan. You guys saved a lot of money. What a beautiful closet.🙏
Your new space is beautiful and I imagine you feel inspired every time you walk in!
Dan is so talented and such a sweet husband! You two are so cute!!
Beautiful. It is soo nice to see a man who is a finisher! What a wonderful husband!! Go Dan!!
This man is a joy to look at let alone the great job he did😊

The best pax hack video out there

The gold hardware looks so good against the white! Can I ask what spray paint brand and color you used?
Will sliding the hangers scratch the spray paint
Added to the description section :)
@@ChaseAmie thank you!!
@@ChaseAmie how is the gold spray paint holding up to the hangers sliding back and forth? Asking because I'd like to do this hack but am concerned about the paint quickly wearing down because of friction from the hangers...
@@jamoula i am curious also. That would be my concern about painting them

@@ChaseAmie thanks! ❤️❤️❤️
I love it i didn't know i can actually get a professional looking closet at ikea great job
Great job Dan on the wardrobe. Beautiful closet! It’s nice to see some DYI and know one can do something professional themselves.
Question: where are your bags? Are there stored in another room? Your hubby did a great job bringing your vision to life. Great teamwork!
Yes! Currently a work in progress :)
Oh my goodness both my husband and I saw that same blog post a few months back, and said that when we move into our home, that we would do this exact thing to the closet because outside contractors were super expensive! We can't wait. Closet is gorgeous 😍 💖 Thank You for sharing ❤ 💕
your husband built you a wardrobe from scratch... this is what true love looks like.
Totally agree... isn’t she the luckiest?! 😊
My hubby never will do that for me... he said it’s wasting time 🥺 😢 sad sad
Dan did a great job! I made my husband watch this and he has promised to do mine in January - so excited :)
WOW! Dan did a magnificent job! So professional. Congrats!
Wow I really love your new wardrobes Amie. I’ve seen a few IKEA wardrobe hacks but this is by far my favourite xx
Dan did a great job. Very professional even on the flooring. Wow....thumbs up to Dan. Lucky you.
Loved this video.. to see you & Hubby work together.. the respect you have for one another..👍🏼👍🏼 it looks awesome 👏🏼

The finished wardrobe looks amazing, Dan is a man with many talents. I would’ve never be able to them myself
Can. you please tell what type of flooring that is (the name and color)? Absolutely beautiful job you two did.
Will have to save this video for when we buy our house next year super chic wardrobe and so happy this is a UK TH-camr makes it so easy

Gold medal to Dan for the amazing finished product/project! 🤙🏼 Also, I like how he’s always wearing comfy stuff whenever we see him!
Perfect timing, I was just looking for something to watch 😊
The floor is stunning!
I read that blog post. Their striped ceiling and green closet system caught my eye on Pinterest. Your closet is so dreamy!!

Looks amazing! Can you tell me what size you cut the door fronts please?

Where are you going to store the rest of your handbags?
A quick tip for anyone considering installing a pax wardrobe they are planning to take when they move house:

Hi Amy! My husband will be doing this project! I love it? How did Dan hide the silver plate attachments at the tops of the closet? Thank you.
Looks great! For someone with else skills I might build the unit and ask for the moulding and etc after too! Thanks for the video
