Dad transforms dingy attic into breath-taking walk-in wardrobe for his wife
One woman is living like a Kardashian after her heartthrob husband nailed the ultimate attic renovation.
Most of us can only dream of a walk-in wardrobe (as well as designer clothes to fill it) but get a long just by watching our bargain buys bend the cheap clothing rack we should probably replace. However, one wife is now living her best life after her husband transformed their once dingy and slightly creepy attic into a spacious and sleek walk-in wardrobe.
It took the dad and a team of workers around three weeks, using supplies from local hardware stores, to create the IG-worthy closet. But, the renovation didn't come in cheap, costing an eye-watering £24,000 to complete.
It took Rodolfo three weeks to complete - with a little help (Jam Press)Rodolfo Cabrera, from Maryland, US, wanted extra space for him and his wife Idaly to store their clothes and realised the empty space in their unused attic provided the perfect opportunity. Rodolfo, who owns the Remodeling and Design LLC construction company, installed a wooden frame for the walls before plastering drywall on top, and created handy shelves using wood planks.

Before and after photos of the transformation were shared on X (formerly known as Twitter) by Rodolfo's daughter Josdallana. Back in 2020, she wrote: "Anyways my dad built my mom a closet in the attic." It quickly racked up hundreds of thousands of likes, with many expressing their jealousy of her mum.

"*Adds handy man to my long list of dating requirements*," one user joked - while another said: "Can your mom fight?" A third cheekily suggested: "He built her that room so she would spend more time up there and not bother him. He ain't slick."
Even the staircase is beautiful (Jam Press)The man himself Rodolfo explained: "My workers helped me out and they got paid for the help. For the closet, I used 2x4 for the framing and a drywall to build the walls. The shelves were made out wood planks. I used PVC laminate for the floor, which is a wood looking plank but it’s made out of plastic and other materials. It’s also waterproof."
