Women, Men, and Walk-In Closets
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Sara_Hughes]Sara Hughes

It is a fact that women are interested in closets more than men. The idea of having a big closet to organize and have fun with excites many women while men show no interest in that at all. Men usually want little to do with a closet and don't care one way or another what it looks like. This means that when you have a big master bedroom closet, the woman of the house is in charge of deciding what it will look like and how it will be used.

Only the bigger more expensive homes used to have walk in closets but now they are becoming more common in all types of homes. If you do have a large master bedroom closet, you will probably be looking for ways to manage the extra space. Typically women will have no problem figuring out what to do with all the extra room, as they own a lot more clothes and shoes than a man.

Anytime a woman walks into a big closet, you can almost hear her mind thinking of all the ways she would like to use the space. On the other hand, a man will have little interest in a closet of any size. This means that walk in closets are good for both parties because the woman will want to take over the space and the man won't care. This will make them both happy.

If you have a big closet, you will need to come up with a good way to get the proper lighting in it. Many walk in closets now days are so big they are almost another room and need their own lighting. Installing overhead lighting such as track lighting always looks good and will highlight certain parts of the closet. You can also bring your own lamps into the closet as long as there is an outlet in it. Usually a bigger closet will come with one overhead light but often times that light is inadequate to do the job.

Any big closet needs to be partitioned and it needs to be decided on who gets what. Usually, the woman will get 75% of the closet with the remaining 25% going to the man. Ultimately though, the closet is usually more important to the woman and she should have the say of how it is organized and decorated.
