Suggestions?

Looking for a cheap or semi free online program for a one-time use of designing a closet space. Nothing fancy of course, I just need 2D layout of a floor space.

I am aware there are some out there but if anyone has used a decent one, point me in that direction.

Reason: I have drawn out many layouts before, I just want to try it digitally this time around to see if its worth the spending money on. For some odd reason having a difficult time scaling down this particular project onto the paper (im using plain 'ol letter sized paper, I know its not the usual drawing paper but its a small project) I am using this time. I have tried on Paint but it just doesn't look right.

I do not care of there is a watermark or not.

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Even mods needs help now and then, huh. :) 

The only tool I know of is Sketchup. Yes, it's a 3D program, but it is possible to make a 2D floor plan:

This is what my brain could think of at 4:26 in the morning xD

Please mention or quote me if you want a response. :)

Thanks I will check it out.

Like I said, I normally do all my layouts by hand but being that I do so much with electronics I thought I would give it a try.
