There comes a time in every closet’s life, when its doors no longer function. Usually, it’s because of old loose hinges and the fact that you don’t know how to use a drill to fix them. But with a nice tension rod, you can do just fine.
After you got rid of the old doors and sent them to door heaven, go get some fabric. Then, mount the rod at the top of the inside frame of your closet, drape your fabric over it. No power tools needed.
Beauty Products Rack
Hair clips, makeup, combs, hair ties, bobby pins, shaving cream, razors. Much like your phone charger, you hate how dependant of these things you turned out to be. But there is something you can do in order to show them they're not your parents/bosses/landlords and therefore YOU control THEM. YOU bought THEM with your own money. You are their god.
Mount a small tension rod and curtain clips inside your bathroom cabinet/bedroom closet, and start clipping stuff. Lord knows putting them in a drawer hasn't been working well anyway.
Drawer Space Divider
It's time we have the talk. The talk about empty takeout containers. It's nice you're trying to go green and reuse those plastic containers, but letting them pile up in the kitchen drawer you never open does not constitute as reusing.
The chaotic mess in that drawer can be contained (get it? contained? containers? ugh, nevermind) using a nice tension rod and a little effort. Separate the containers by color/size/material/political opinion, or however else you see fit.
DIY Canopy
Unless you live in the UK, you may have noticed that monarchies are going extinct, as are your chances of marrying a royal (thanks a lot, Ms. Markle). But just because governments are now a thing, doesn't mean you can't sleep like a royal.
With the help of a few curtain rods and some light linen curtains, you can create your own canopy bed. Now you have a place to run off to and cry after stalking your ex on Facebook (which you shouldn't do anyway, but that's a different story).
Party Decorations
Holiday and party decorations always sound like a nice idea but turn out disappointing (a little like that extra shot of tequila you had last night). There is either too much or not enough of them, and they're only good for a few hours before they get thrown in the trash, which Earth isn't thrilled about.
With a curtain rod and some colorful fabrics, you can create a big wall decoration that you can reuse and modify according to whatever it is your celebrating, be it the 4th of July or the fact that you finally got that matcha tea you ordered online 6 weeks ago.
