If you are trying to make your closet look nice you should pay attention to this advices. Given by professional designers, here you will find the ultimate tips to organize your closet in a unique stylish way.
Try to create a balanced and visually appealing design. You're investing your time and money....so be sure you like the finished product. Determine how much of each clothing storage "type" you need (eg. hanging, folded, drawers). Some professional organizers recommend doing a detailed inventory....but who has the time. Just make a general estimate of what you use now, and note any deficiencies. For example: you have 10 feet of hanging space, but could use another 2 feet. Don't underestimate how much space you require for hanging clothes, and don't plan too much area for long hanging. With today's fashions most people don't need more than 12 to 24 horizontal inches of long hanging space. Next, you need to hang the longest items that you have, such as dresses and long coats, far back to one side. If you have a little money to put into your closet organization, high-quality wooden hangers can make a huge difference. They keep everything hanging correctly and they also space out your items so that they don't get crammed and wrinkled. You can install a second bar under the first to hang shirts, suit coats, pants or other short items. This can just about double the useable space in your closet. Installing more shelves down the sides of the closet or where ever you have room, can give you lots of storage space for ties, socks, t-shirt stacks belts and other accessories. Some people have a large shoe collection that could fill an entire closet. Standardized shelving can be utilized for the shoe collector. With all your shoes organized, your closet solutions will be that much more streamlined. If you do not have space for all the shoes consider donating some of the more practical shoes to a third world country, they could really use them. Plan sufficient space for your shoes. If you have an average number of shoes you may be able to place them under the hanging clothes sections. Otherwise, you should plan a full closet section for shoe storage. Shoe shelves should be a minimum of 2 feet wide to accomodate two pairs sitting tandem. Wider shelves should increase by increments of 12 inches (or approximately one pair of shoes).
Many closet solutions meet your needs and wants. Search the internet for the latest styles and trends in closet design. You will find many tips and tricks along the way. The main idea is to re-organize your life not just your closet. Get rid of the excess baggage you collect both literally and figuratively. |
