Closet dreams

We have been in our house for a little over 6 years now and probably since day 1 I have been wanting to rip out the rods and shelves in our master closet and completely customize it. The hubby is a very good carpenter and likes woodworking projects so I am confident this assignment would be happily accepted (sense the sarcasm?) Truth is, he does like projects but tends to roll his eyes every time I tell him I am going to just rip things out...probably because he knows it could actually happen any day!

I dream of lots of rod space, shoe racks, handbag shelves, a separate area for jewelry. I would also love to have a floor length mirror and maybe a pretty rug? Wow, guess I have more "wants" than I realized!

Thanks to Houzz and Pinterest I am always able to find amazing closets! Here are some of my favorites. What do you think? What do you think makes a great closet and what could you not live without in yours?
