You Can
Build A Mini Wine Cellar In A Tiny Space ... Even A Closet!
When you are
passionate about wine you begin collecting it ... when you
begin collecting wine you need a place to store it.
A closet can
easily be turned into a mini wine cellar to store your
growing wine collection, however, before you begin
constructing your mini cellar consider the position of the
closet in relation to the rest of the house.
Avoid converting a closet situated against an outside wall
into a mini wine cellar. The outside walls of your house or
apartment can be subject to wide fluctuations in temperature
which will be detrimental to long-term wine storage. Choose
an internal closet where your wine can be stored in a more
stable atmosphere.
The most difficult part of converting a closet to a mini
cellar can be finding other places to store the original
contents of the closet! Be ruthless ... sell / give away /
move all the present contents and start with an empty space!
Purchase some inexpensive
wine racks
from a hardware store, online retailer or storage shop and
you'll have a simple but very effective wine closet.
The mini wine cellar below will give you an idea of what you
can accomplish if you clean out that closet! And check out
this advice before you start building your cellar...
