Built-in Baby Closet Ideas
How can you not crush on this gorgeous nursery closet?! It even has a built-in dresser!
You’ll either need a VERY handy husband OR a custom cabinetry person for this project, but I do love that you could save some space on your nursery room floor by putting the dresser drawers in the closet.

However, the cost of baskets can add up, so unless you already have quite a few extra, it may come out to around the same price as using drawers.
