Linen Cupboard Sorted

Now that the front of my linen cupboard looks so pretty ...



I thought it was time to tackle the inside.  So the before ....


and the after....



Here's what I did.  I lined the shelves with pretty paper and painted some veranda brackets white to use as shelf dividers.


I made pretty labels for each shelf.  The scroll frame is from The Graphics Fairy.


Then I folded everything (what a difference that makes!)


I added some pretty postcards I had of Stonehenge and Bath to the back of the cupboard.  I saw this idea on a blog.  I can't remember where (I should have pinned it, then I'd know).


and some pretty blossom postcards that came free in BBC Good Homes magazine one month. I like that they work with the blossoms on the front of the cupboard.


I bought some storage bags from Spotlight to keep all the sleeping bags under control.


and it all came together like this ...


Now that's what I call stylish storage.

  1. absolutely lovely!
    now can you come visit and do mine!!!
    when we moved in (hmmm - that would be in 2002!) my bestest girlfriend set up my linen cupboard all beautiful-like!
    it hasn't been properly organised since.
    e-gads!!
    it also doesn't help that it's in a very dimly lit hallway - which drives me nuts.
    anyhoo - that's my winge and excuses!! i really should get onto mine. thanks for the inspiration.

  3. Stylish storage indeed! I love it when my cupboards are all neat and pretty inside, but to keep them like that takes some doing. Love the labels and brackets. x Sharon
