When opened it has one side with a clothes bar for hanging stuff and other side has a series of drawers with labels on them like "makeup" "jewelry" "shoes" "underwear" etc... I had thought I'd put her in a guest room and have it opened up so guests could hang a couple things in it while staying, but I could never bring myself to just clean it out and sanitize it. There are little bits of things like sequins that fell off stage clothes, an old hotel room key, the tag out of something made of cashmere, etc that I thought I would clear out and make it more utilitarian to justify the cost. But I've so far never been able to remove those traces. So I've kind of come to realize that it's actually more of an artifact to just display more than "use", like a piece of history, or a piece of art that you just enjoy for what it is

It makes me sad that it's in the garage. I'd love to smell her perfume in it. ❤️
