April 16th, 2012 No comments

Whether your home is a streamlined contemporary style or a cozy cottage, there’s one thing all of them seem to share – a messy closet. Regardless of whether your current living space provides a big, deluxe walk-in closet, it’s likely that, there’s more things compared to space to put all of it. That’s our nature – the more space we have, the more things we accumulate.

Is that hitting too close to home? It’s about time, then, for a little intervention. Here are a few suggestions for overcoming that disorganized closet. Use one, three or all of them to get organized. You’ll be surprised at the major difference just a few of these suggestions can make. Workdays will be easier to cope with, you’ll look better when you can to find your clothing.

  1. Use hooks on the sides and back of the closet walls to hang accessories. Don’t neglect the cabinet doors, either. As long as there’s space, there’s room for a hook.
  2. Use multiple rods, hung at varying heights rather than a single high clothes pole to get more clothes in the closet. Hang evening clothes, everyday outfits and coats on a upper rod, while shirts/tops and {skirts/pants can hang on stacked rods.
  3. Lots of clothes inside your closet don’t have to be hung up. Shirts and knit tops can be folded away and placed into dressers or bins on a high shelf.
  4. Utilize tall racks to keep seasonal items. They’re still within reach, but don’t use up important space for your everyday wardrobe.
  5. There are several shoe storage alternatives that make use of the unused room on the bottom of the closet. There are also styles that hang from the clothes pole to save space. There’s an option almost every closet and need, so pick one that maximizes the entire space.

In case you still require more space, consider using a garment rack. It may be put in a basement or extra room to store seasonal clothing or those you just will need from time to time.

There are many choices to manage that disorganized closet. Stop for a moment to ascertain your needs then get moving. A few minutes planning can produce a major impact in you daily life.
