of clothes!
I'm not kidding either. She has so much clothing that it ripped off the wall (for the second time) two days back. So I said F'it i'm done with the whole drill in wall setups that you can buy and built my own clothing rack.
I used gas piping with threaded ends, to make a two row rack that is 150" long and 84" high. It uses 3 pillars and also connects to the back wall in 3 spots. You can only see the aftermath of the old rack in these pictures, but you can get an idea of the volume of clothing from it.
The last 3 shots are actually one after another after another (you can find a point of reference with clothing in the pictures) just to give you an idea of how much clothing we are talking about here.
Fucking girls and their pack rat nature I tell ya!

At first I was like it is going to look like shit due to the materials you used but once it was all put to use you can't even tell.
Also never have to worry about that shit sagging, our 4 year old closets are starting to droop a bit from all the weight.
What is that an extra bedroom I assume?

Yeah if anything it matches the room now as its all black trim anyways. But if it would have looked liked total shit, I wouldn't have cared one bit. Just as long as I'm not in there trying to pick up that load of clothes again.
Its actually where we keep the servers and also at the end of the room she sets up her photo studio.
Our house is way too big for us. We have 5 bedrooms 3 full bathrooms. BUT we use 1 master bedroom, baby's room and a guest room. Rest are now office, server/clothing/photo room, art room.
And to Sex...Yeah, I totally knew it would grab attention even though everyone KNOWS its not my wife's tata's.
As for my sisters tattoo, she actually got more done. I'll get some pics up soon.

Nice rack. Thanks sir!
Jesus Christ. Yeah, not how I wanted to spend half of my Sunday LOL

Now, no lie here. I made her donate a huge amount after the last time it broke. She donated 8 or 9 trashbags of clothes and also gave away 2-3 bags to friends of our families. Still, this remains.

I can fit all my clothes and coats in one normal sized closet.. I put my tshirts and jogging shorts in the drawer though that is probably 80% of my wardrobe.

I've got a TON of clothes because she shops for me all the time. But in all honesty, 2 pairs of shorts and a shit ton of running pants and I'm good. Throw in about 12 white t-shirts for good measure and you have what I would prefer to wear 24/7

That is just it man! She buys shit in multiple sizes so that she can wear the stuff no matter what (pre-pregnant, during, post).
Before we were dating she racked up TONS on credit cards. Took us awhile just to get all that shit in order.

so you have an entire room dedicated to clothing? isn't that just called a walk in closet? just baller status?
You should consider using one of those rooms as a beer fridge like in the Heineken commercial :)

also, she didn't always work from home. that collection has been built over many o years.
She has donated SO much of it. I'd say 30 full trash bags in the last 4 years.

I'm a 22 y/o college student. It's justifiable not to have much stuff.
I'm graduating this summer, and soon I'll have a job, a home and more stuff than I can fit in a Focus. But for the time being, I'm content.

but it'll all still be to fit in a Focus BBT
