DIY solution for making the most of my walk in closet.!

So I looked into getting a fancy custom walk in closet built. There was a lot of empty space not being utilized and I called one of the people to come in and give me a quote. Oh my God it was $10,000!!! The proposal looked really nice but I asked for the most basic solution (with no fancy glass and doors) and it was still 5 figures!!! Declined, went to Home Depot, got some melamine boards and cut to size, bought a brad nailer and some corner braces, and voila! Not the best craftsmenship work but I am not really a handyman, messed up a lot, missed with the nail gun several times and messed up the wood, but here is what is looks. Still need to build one more but it meets all my needs. I like all the imperfections and am proud of the blood, sweat, and almost tears put into this project! Had to put together all the IKEA drawers under the DIY hanging solution as well and it was a nightmare to fit everything in the closet after already building it!
