“If you want to improve your life immediately, clean out a
closet. Often it is what we hold onto that holds us back”-Cheryl Richardson
Organizing our otherwise perpetually disorganized closets
can be liberating and fulfilling.
Apart from discarding items you no longer wear, it also
allows you to revisit old sartorial ensembles that you might wish to start
rocking again. More importantly, an arranged and organized wardrobe allows you
to see your clothes better which means you have better choices for mixing and
matching clothing resulting to an overall improved ensemble. Unfortunately,
organizing closets is only the easy part—the difficult part is learning how to
maintain them—especially if you are someone with quite a lot of clothes. So, to
preclude the contents of your closets from falling into disarray once more and
having your
wholesale bob marley clothes mixing in with your more contemporary pieces, here are
some of the best closet organizing tips to keep in mind:
Hang your clothes strategically
One of the ways your closets can easily
fall into disarray is hanging up clothes without care. This means just randomly
hanging clothes regardless of what kind of piece they are. To address this,
ensure that you section off what you hang. Hang your blouses, skirts and tops
above the closet section with built-in shelves. Dresses, trousers and pants
should go into the space with nothing underneath.
Have bypass doors
With bypass doors, you do not need to walk
from end to end just to search for what you need. With them, your clothes are
concealed from view and can easily be accessed by moving them side to side. More
importantly, they are easy to install by yourself.
Consider using an entire room
If you have way too many clothes that you
cannot let go of in a diminutive closet, perhaps the only way to address this
is to have an even bigger closet. However, if you are not pressed for real estate
space, go ahead, take the extra mile and use an entire room for your clothes
instead. In this way, you do not have to worry about never having enough space
as the entire room is dedicated solely for your clothes.
Organize accessories and small garments
In lieu of stuffing undergarments and other
intimates into one drawer, organize them neatly in makeshift shelves like
wicker baskets. Keep them out of sight by stashing them inside these makeshift drawers,
they would not only make your closets look organized and neat, they look pretty
as well.
Use the closet’s wall spaces
Closet space is pretty much like prime real
estate—especially to women who have an affinity for hoarding clothes. In this
regard, you should be able to strategically use every available space in the
closet. So, in lieu of hanging your scarves, belts and other accessories on
hangers and taking up valuable rod space, attach a towel bar to the unused wall
space of your closet instead. There you can have a display of your sartorial or
accessory collection. Plus, it makes your closets look super cute upon opening.
Use built in shelves
Having enough room to store your shoes and
clothes might seem enough. But to other fashionistas who capitalize on looking
good, they do not stop at just looking for enough space for their clothes and
shoes—the accessories need to go somewhere as well. In this regard, you can use
the built in drawers of your closet for storing sunglasses, jewelry or other
sartorial accessories. Be sure to arrange them properly so as to prevent them
from being jumbled together.
Have a shoe organizer
It might be that some of your shoes are
impossible to store in a closet. In this regard, you might fare off better if
you tried using a shoe organized instead that would not take up any space in
your closet which allows you to maximize its limited area.
Hang your closet rods higher
The higher up your rods are, the more items you
can store below it. Sure, it does not exactly make for the closet’s overall aesthetic
appeal but it does wonders in improving storage space. Once you have hung it
higher, you may opt to put a little dresser or even a shoe rack underneath the
garments hung up. Alternatively, you may even hang a second rod beneath it.
