How to Build Basic Modular Closet Cabinets for a Small Walk In

Does your closet need an upgrade? These modular cabinets are a great way to add versatile and practical storage to a small (or large) walk in closet. I built these to be SUPER SIMPLE in design so that you can easily swap drawers for shelves or shelves for hanging rods because not all closets are (or should be) the same. I hope you enjoy seeing how they transformed my guest bedroom closet space and I hope this gives you some ideas and inspiration for your own!
