For all those passionate about Ikea furnishings and DIY projects, below we present how you can create your own Ikea Pax wardrobe in an existing storage space.

Open the Gallery You will need the following: two pieces of Pax-type material or any type of wood or plywood, preferably white, with dimensions 60x200 and two Pax sliding doors with dimensions 150x200 (for this project you will also need a frame to support the doors).

For a This is a bit tricky! "Dressing" in Romanian can mean both a salad dressing and the act of putting on clothes. To translate accurately, I need more context.

Please provide the sentence or paragraph where you found "dressing".
For a spacious walk-in closet you can enter, you first need to install a metal frame to secure the doors. You can also use wood to connect the wardrobes inside (see details in the gallery photos).

After mounting the rails, carefully position the doors so they move and function smoothly without obstruction. It is not necessary to fix them to the floor; the rail between the two sides of the wardrobe is sufficient to support the weight of the doors. You can allow the doors to overlap, they will look better this way.

Since dressing rooms are usually located in a darker area of the room, we suggest using light colors, preferably white for both cabinets and doors. As the door frames are white, you can add a type of paper called Shoji. Shoji paper is durable, translucent, and made from wood fiber, making it perfect for your project.

The shoji screen is characteristic of traditional Japanese homes for dividing living spaces, but it can also be used as a decorative element for screens or, in this case, incorporated into the furniture structure.

The space above the doors up to the ceiling can also be covered with part of the door structure for aesthetic continuity (see photos in the gallery).

Your dressing room project is complete, and you can now fill it with various storage options, including shelves of different sizes and metal storage boxes. Don't forget to add a mini lighting unit for better visibility.
