Tips for Organizing Your Closet Having a well-organized closet is not only a good way to maximize your space, it may also make it a little easier to find what you need. Follow these ten steps to learn how to organize your closet.

1

DETERMINE IN ADVANCE HOW LONG YOU WANT TO SPEND ORGANIZING YOUR CLOSET. Breaking the task up into time segments that are comfortable for you may keep the project from becoming overwhelming.

2

DECIDE WHAT TO KEEP. Do you wear everything you have? Any item for which the answer is no may be able to be donated or thrown out.

3

DECIDE WHAT TO STORE. Storing clothes that are not in season is one way to keep unnecessary items out of the way. Consider storing under your bed or at the top of your closet.

5

CLEAN THE INSIDE OF THE CLOSET. Use a vacuum and/or wipes to get your closet organization project off to a fresh start.

GROUP SIMILAR ITEMS TOGETHER. Put your belts on shelves with other belts and your pants on shelves with other pants.

7

START HANGING UP YOUR CLOTHES IN AN ORGANIZED WAY. Put the clothes you wear most often in the front of your closet. Then you may not have to go digging for your favorite sweater.

8

WALL SPACE MAY BE A GOOD PLACE TO PUT YOUR ACCESSORIES. Closet organizers like adhesive hooks can help you place items like scarves, bags, and jewelry in a place where you can see them.

PUT SOME ITEMS IN BINS OR DRAWERS. The items that go in bins may be clothes you don’t wear as often or those that don’t need to be hung. Consider putting casual clothes and accessories in bins and drawers with dividers.

DECIDE IF YOU WANT TO PURCHASE STORAGE BINS. If you want to buy bins, measure your space first. Don’t buy anything until you know it will fit in your space.

ONCE YOU HAVE FINISHED, WORK ON KEEPING YOUR CLOSET IN CHECK. Reorganize on a frequent basis, setting up a notification on your calendar as a reminder.
