My Closet! Well, Get That Closet Organized Right Now!
My Closet
You say…
My closet is bursting with clothes!
We all know that feeling.
When we have too many clothes and things just falling out of the shelves.
Or so jammed in you have trouble finding what you want.
It’s about time you got that closet sorted.
My Closet Is A Mess
Most of us have a fairly large closet, but lots of worthless space in its original design.
It is no wonder things end up piled up and lost in there. To get organized you are going to need to transform that space into areas you can work with.
Once you have decided on the items that will go back into your closet you are going to have to decide how you want them in there.
Do you want to hang it?
Put it on the floor?
Have a few shelves?
Or literally, store some items on the floor?
This information will help you take the proper steps to get your closet organized.
Multi-tier hanging clothes rods are very useful.
You can install half rods in various locations as well.
This is an excellent choice if you need a full-length rod area for dresses and want a shorter hanging space for shirts.
Most of us have a standard closet with one hanging clothes rod all the way across.
Even simply adding a second one down below will double your storage space!
Use:
- bins
- dividers
- small shelves
- baskets
To separate and organize your smaller closet items.
You can even put your sweaters in a basket or on a shelf since hangers can cause them to lose their shape.
Do remember that…
If you put your jumpers on a clothes hanger they will go out of shape. So you do need an area to put them folded on your shelves.
I did say folded them… Not throw it in.
Yes, Yes…
I know…
We are all guilty of that at some time or the other.
Cubbies are great for:
- shoes
- belts
- scarves
And other similar items.
Carousals are wonderful for:
- hats
- ties
- purses
If you are creative you may want to use a particular closet organization product for an entirely different purpose.
Just Do It!
This is your project so make it work for you.

This is your chance to customize your closet storage space. Make it accessible and convenient for what you need.
Some of us have tons of clothes and only a few pairs of shoes.
While some of us have a pair of shoes to go with each outfit.
Yes…
There are such people.
Therefore no custom closet organization design is perfect for everyone.
For the best results, take a complete inventory of the items you plan on returning to your closet and devise a plan that will give the right amount of space for the items you need it for.
Do you plan to live in your current residence for a long time?
If so, a permanent closet organization system is something you will be interested in.
For those of you who move often or who rent, consider using removable closet organization products that install and remove easily.
Otherwise, you will find yourself in the same predicament each time you have to move.
You will also want to consider the cost of each type of closet organization system before making any decisions.
Many people don’t realize the amount of space they have on the inside of their closet doors.
You can hang:
- a bag for hats
- purses
- belts
- umbrellas
- gloves, etc. here.
It is also a perfect location for hanging a shoe organizer.
Make sure you take this area into consideration while devising your custom closet organization layout.
Don’t spend money on items to design your closet until you are absolutely sure that they are going to fit well in your closet area.
Most closet-organizing products can’t be returned or exchanged if you have already started putting them together unless they are defective.
It is a good idea to take your measurements twice in the closet as well as when you are looking for products to purchase.
Now you can say my closet looks a lot better now. So don’t go and mess it up again or you will have to do it all over again.
