I had a landlord once, he said because of all the improvements we made, he needed to raise the rent because the apt was worth more. We took him too court and won, but he was so miserable after that we moved anyway. So we were able to undo most of the improvements and put the apt back the same way it was rented to us. It still looked better than when we rented it, but not as nice as we had it. Moved out and he said we wrecked his apt. Went to court again. Had taken before and after pictures both times. We won again because even though we put the apt back the way we found it, it still looked better because we fixed damaged things that should have been repaired before it was rented out. He actually had to pay us for all the things we repaired for him. So even if a bad landlord always take before and after pictures and keep all your receipts. And that closet really looks great now. God Bless.
XO, MaCenna if I had money I’d hire you ASAP! Maybe consider starting a business. Or perhaps reach out to professional moving companies to partner with at first. Their clientele who are moving into a new space can work with you on the design and placement of items and it can be worked into the actual moving/arranging of everything in the new space according to your design. 🤔
Amazing storage upgrade !!!! 👌 Free editing tip : Get rid off flickering on footage : Copy that piece footage (without audio) to new layer above it Change opacity to 50% Move duplicated clip 1 frame to the right.... Flickering gone.... 😜🤓
love it so much - especially all the lighting choices. I'm making my granddaughter (15) watch this video because she's thinking about taking woodworking as an alternate subject and want her to see how useful it will be. So Inspiring! Plus she loves to organize!
You are so clever and think of all the details. Since you rent you should make your landlord aware of the changes you've made. You're adding value to their property.
MaCenna, I love how this came out!! I love your personality too. The string on the door during the reveal cracked me up 🤣 your videos are so fun to watch, I learn something new every time. One last thing: your sweater collection is amazing 🤩
Thank you for remodeling your closet. It looks so much better. I moved into my new home almost a year ago and never bothered with my closet. I deeply appreciate you showing that it didn't take one day but realistically took three days. Having the right tools and materials to get the job done right. You are amazing. Have a wonderful day.
How satisfying was this?? Outstanding job! Your landlord would freak knowing how much more rentable you made their place with all your beautiful makeovers!
Your closet looks like a boutique now! Gorgeous and inspiring how do-able it is. I’ve so enjoyed watching all of your videos! They always leave me inspired to redecorate or do a home project ☺️
What a super professional looking job! Your insight to style is fabulous. Your landlord must love you. You continue to improve the home and it looks so modern and high class. It's fabulous. You really have a great eye for style and design.
Loved this makeover. Especially the fixes that you come up for every challenges (bad lighting situation) is amazing. Makes me think 🤔 ‘oh, why didn’t I think of that’.
Your landlord should really be happy with you, you just made this closet upscaled and he will be able to get a couple of dollars in rent because of it. Awesome job
Beautiful transformation! The lights are such a crucial addition. I bet you’ll actually use that space towards the end now that you can see back there! The shelving you built looks 👌🏽
Love the tip about using paint from behind the outlet cover as a swatch! Also I appreciate that you wear realistic at-home working mode clothes as you’re building things!
Hey Macenna, you know, you can add an extra wire, connecting it to the existing one and have a second pendant light in the back space. You can hang it by a hook and they will both turn on by the same "switch/cord". Then, you can hide the extended wire with those square long things that hide the cords (I don't know how they're called) to have a more finished look. I hope I made sense... :P Contact me if you need more info (or explenation) :) You rock Macenna
Omg soooo good! Your landlord should totally invest in having an electrician come in and add another light source in the back of that closet since you did all of the work to make the improvements. You’re so thoughtful for finishing it out and making it look custom.
In my head when I saw the dark shelves I was like "oh my gosh the clickable or remote controlled battery lights would really brighten up the space, hopefully she puts some in" then boom! "I ordered some lights..." I was like wow, same brain 😂
Love, love what you’ve done with this closet! Thanks too for touching on the reality of trying to balance making a space fit for purpose and cost, when your ostensibly increasing the value of someone else’s investment. Would love the cost breakdown on this, I really appreciate when you include that in your other DIY videos. We rent and improvements/alterations are a constant thought in the back of my mind. We added so much to our last rental because we thought we’d be there long term, unfortunately the landlord had to sell and we weren’t in a position to buy. We’ve thought a little harder about improvements this time so I really appreciate all the wonderful content you share that helps us think of affordable ways to make changes Xo
This came out SO GOOD! What a great use of space (in an awkward space no less) and you managed to make it look pretty too! I’ve been trying to brainstorm on how to make my closets more functional yet nice to look at it and this has definitely given me some inspiration. Thanks for sharing!
I just want to thank you for inspiring me. I’ve been in a long long drought of not feeling passionate about anything. Now I’m excited for crafting and I’ve already got a few projects done!
This perfume subscription sounds amazing. I think its nice to change the smell often so you don't kind of get used to one and can't smell it anymore. Love the closest makeover. You've motivated me to sort out my clothes now. 🥰
Wow!! Excellent job. I love how you can utilize the space given to you so well. I too live in an apartment that I cannot change much but this inspires me to really think about my space and what I can do with it!
That's a beautiful closet. Closet makes all the difference in the quality of life. You are so talented. Would you show me how you are organizing all your tools and paints and some objects that you are currently not using?
Great video! Not only a successful makeover, but also a display of incredible attention to detail! That special little shelf covering the rod made my jaw drop. "Bag in a bag" storage trick is something I picked up from KonMari and I must admit it works wonders. If I may suggest something: try to elevate the back rows of those deep shoe shelves e.g. by putting the shoes on top of some boxes - this way you will see everything better. All the best!
when I first saw this video pop up i was like...meh a closer makeover. But I don't know why I ever think that because every project you do I learn something from it!!! You once again kicked butt at a project.
I saw a hat wall display on Pinterest that would be SO cute in your closet and might be another good way to save some space! You're a creative genius sweets!
I hope your landlord watches your video. You are increasing the value of his/her property with each project!
🥰🥰🥰
That's what I was thinking. Macenna is a dream tenant.
Mandy Exactly what I thought! That landlord is so lucky to have Handy Macenna as his tennant!

@@willothewispl omg what a jerk! Some people will truly do anything for extra money 😒 karma got him good tho 😂
i‘m kinda sad you don’t have anymore rooms to make over now 😂 so obsessed with these kinds of videos from you!!! quality content 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Hahah I know 😭 I’ve honestly contemplated moving 😳
Next step to move 😋😘

@@XOMaCenna - Maybe there might be a place in Drews block coming up?
please re do our rooms virtually!!!! money for you, nice stuff for us!!!!!
Oh my gosh, adding those puck lights made such a difference! It almost looks like a retail environment! Lights up your closet wonderfully!
Amazing as always and so proud of how quickly you’re getting accustomed to power tools!!
Thanks so much!! I’ve been trying really hard to get more comfortable and learn at least one new thing every project 🥰
@@XOMaCenna )
OMG I love this! Prob best closet transformation I’ve ever seen! 👏🏽🙌🏽
UMMM WAS THAT A NEW PAINTING OVER THE LENS CLIP?
Omg it was!!!
You noticeddddd 🥰🥰🥰 yes!
Yasss!!!🥰
MaCenna is so talented, I would just go to ikea 😂
I noticed it too!
Amazing storage upgrade !!!! 👌
Free editing tip :
Get rid off flickering on footage :
Copy that piece footage (without audio) to new layer above it
Change opacity to 50%
Move duplicated clip 1 frame to the right....
Flickering gone.... 😜🤓
Wow! Absolutely stunning! Add a mirror and a stool and you have a dressing room. Perfect in every way. Especially like the touch of green.
love it so much - especially all the lighting choices. I'm making my granddaughter (15) watch this video because she's thinking about taking woodworking as an alternate subject and want her to see how useful it will be. So Inspiring! Plus she loves to organize!

Lovely job!! To be able to work the drill, my next thing to learn. My thrift friend. Wish u lived inJersey. We could be friends!lol
Kenzley is so adorable! She follows you every where you go. 🥰 I just love her!
Amazing refresh. You go girl!
Wow! Your carpentry skills are going to another level! Looooove it!
Thank you for remodeling your closet. It looks so much better. I moved into my new home almost a year ago and never bothered with my closet. I deeply appreciate you showing that it didn't take one day but realistically took three days. Having the right tools and materials to get the job done right. You are amazing. Have a wonderful day.
That is an insanely tall and awkward space. You did a spectacular job making everything work. I love it!
I just keep thinking how happy your landlord must be because you keep adding incredible value to this home!
Girl, I am so impressed by you! Love your videos and love that you built the shelves all on your own. Awesome job!!
How satisfying was this?? Outstanding job! Your landlord would freak knowing how much more rentable you made their place with all your beautiful makeovers!
You add so much value to that condo with that closet, the owner should reduce your rent 👍
I loved the personal touches with the plant, the rug, and the new light fixture.
Wow ! What a transformation ! It looks absolutely beautiful & well organized !! Great job !!
Thanks so so much 😘😘
That top is fantastic on you! Looks great! It feels much better, doesn't it? Like a weight has been lifted and now you can find things!
Magnificent! I used to professionally design custom cabinetry for closets. Your use of space is so very good. Plus you have an adorable pup.
You never cease to amaze me. Is there anything you cant do? What vision! You are truly a problem solver. So talented! You inspire me.
Omg yes thank you I need this so bad! I have to do my closet because we just moved so I need all the help I can get LOL
painting the shelves was a great idea you couldn't tell at first but in the end it made such a huge difference at the end! love it !!
Okay you’ve officially decorated every room in your house, time to move and do it all over again
Your closet looks like a boutique now! Gorgeous and inspiring how do-able it is. I’ve so enjoyed watching all of your videos! They always leave me inspired to redecorate or do a home project ☺️
The string on the doorknob made me laugh loll...you are so talented! I love Sunday’s when you and lone fox post! ❤️
The lighting made a dramatic difference. Love the shelving too. 🤩
Wow! The lights add a “retail” effect. Looks great :) what was your total cost for something like this?
What a super professional looking job! Your insight to style is fabulous. Your landlord must love you. You continue to improve the home and it looks so modern and high class. It's fabulous. You really have a great eye for style and design.
Gonna go organize my closet now. Thanks, this was the motivation I needed.
With the lights looks like a store display, LOVE IT!
the BEST closet transformation I've seen. Go girl! 💕
Omg I just gushed over your new painting over the lens clip. I even showed my husband! “she did a new one!” 😍
ahahaha
There's thread on the doorknob?
It's such a functional space now! And pretty too! Good job :)
Love your channel, it is a source of inspiration for me. Lots of love from India.🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much
Sunday's are my favorite day! I love the closet makeover!
Omg I have been wanting to do my mom’s closet! This is great!🤩
Yayyy!!!
Great job! If you put the small suitcase inside the larger one, you could put your big basket of rolled scarves where the small suitcase is now. 😊💙
She Said the big one already had smaller ones inside
They also have wood edging pieces you can iron on to wood to have a more finished look.
Bravo! You really utilized the space and made it look so nice 👍🏻
I wish I could fix up my closet that good 😂
I loved when you have really good ideas , almost you're so friendly , your's pet so cute
After drew here comes macenna... love you both. 1am here in manila..really waiting for these before sleeping..
Tnx macenna..❤❤❤ from🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Yayy 🥰
Loved this makeover. Especially the fixes that you come up for every challenges (bad lighting situation) is amazing. Makes me think 🤔 ‘oh, why didn’t I think of that’.
OMG GIRRRL I LOVE THIS CLOSET!!!! The "built-ins" look so good! 😍😍😍😍
Blessed is the person who will move in after you because these makeovers are everything 👌❤️. I also hope that your landlord watches your videos 🙌.
Your landlord should really be happy with you, you just made this closet upscaled and he will be able to get a couple of dollars in rent because of it. Awesome job
Beautiful transformation! The lights are such a crucial addition. I bet you’ll actually use that space towards the end now that you can see back there! The shelving you built looks 👌🏽
Lol, anybody else see the string that pulled the door open at 17:29 😆
I was wondering how they did that...😆😆
Sharon Wangari haha, now you know 😁
Also, right before, I think she meant to write “after” but wrote “before” again 😝
@@sweeetstache yeah glad i wasnt the only one to notice that
Love the tip about using paint from behind the outlet cover as a swatch!
Also I appreciate that you wear realistic at-home working mode clothes as you’re building things!
Looks great. I did mine 2 months ago, now I'm moving this Monday to a new old house. Here we go again.
I love the way you maximized your closet space. Amazing!
Hey Macenna, you know, you can add an extra wire, connecting it to the existing one and have a second pendant light in the back space.

Marina Miliari You are thinking of a conduit to hide the cord. They can be painted out and you barely notice.
Omg soooo good! Your landlord should totally invest in having an electrician come in and add another light source in the back of that closet since you did all of the work to make the improvements. You’re so thoughtful for finishing it out and making it look custom.
In my head when I saw the dark shelves I was like "oh my gosh the clickable or remote controlled battery lights would really brighten up the space, hopefully she puts some in" then boom! "I ordered some lights..." I was like wow, same brain 😂
The best!!! It looks soo pretty now!!!❤❤😱😱
Damn good!❤😊
OOoo! New intro!
Yayy you noticed 🥰
I love this makeover so much! Just as much, if not more than, a room makeover because you worked with a difficult space and made the most of it!
Haha I clicked when it was uploaded 17 seconds ago! First to watch award 🥇🤣
Loooooved this!!! So functional!! Love the optimization of the space!! Always adjusting 💞 I bet it feels soooo good!!! you’re killin it!!!!
At 17:27 you put "before" instead of "after", just saying
I saw the same thing. Had to go back and see, just to make sure I wasnt going crazy ..lol
I came here to comment that. I don't know if it's fixable, guess not. Maybe a little note in the info box.
She also spelled vertical "verticle" at 1:59 ;-)
Love, love what you’ve done with this closet!

Can't wait to watch the whole video
This closet makeover is unreal. Amazing handiwork.
The after reveal was so AMAZING!!!!! You did an incredible job omg
What a professional job! You're amazing!
Wow! That was an amazing makeover! It looks so organized and with all those lights you’ll be able to find what you want easily. I love it!
I loved how you used the shoe boxes to add some extra height. Brilliant!
this was one of the most satisfying makeovers! I absolutely love watching people remake spaces to fit exactly what they need, and do it affordably!!
Beautiful job! Absolutely gorgeous and so well organized and relaxing. You could just sit in there and read it’s so pretty!

New camera lens was perrrrfect for this video! We were able to see so much of the tighter space, so impressive!
Amazing transformation and budget friendly!!
Wow Macenna, I am beyond impressed. U are so darn talented. U made ur closet look like a mini boutique. I'm in love with it. 😍😍😍😍
I love it! Those little lights really transformed that space
Wow this is fantastic. That mirror you just made would look fantastic on the left wall!
Wow!! Excellent job. I love how you can utilize the space given to you so well. I too live in an apartment that I cannot change much but this inspires me to really think about my space and what I can do with it!
Wow! What a transformation! Love it!!!! and Kinsley is so cute!!
Gorgeous and brilliant! Gone from nightmarish to dreamy. Your puppy is so adorable and I love she has to be touching you 😍😍😍

You are so clever with design! Your closet makeover was AWESOME!!!!!
I saw a hat wall display on Pinterest that would be SO cute in your closet and might be another good way to save some space! You're a creative genius sweets!
i love the string, that opened the door for more dramatic reveal!
What a difference! The shelving unit is totally renter friendly as well.
Okay so I seriously NEED your playlist that is in the background! Its what inspires meeeeeeee
