How to Organize Your Closet

Decluttering your clothes is a vital part of closet organization. It is a great way to single out the items you wear from the ones that are simply taking up space and contributing to the mess. Here are a few easy steps to declutter your closet:

Clear the space: Take out all your clothes to properly give them individual attention and assess the space you have in your closet.

Categorize the items: Have different bags or boxes with labels matching what you intend to do with each item. You can choose to keep, sell, donate or throw away the clothes you have.

Let go: Get rid of clothes you haven’t worn in at least a year, items that are no longer your size and multiples of the same item. Depending on the condition they are in, you can put them in their respective boxes.

Clean the space: Before putting any clothing back in, vacuum your closet and wipe the surfaces.

Organizing your closet will depend on various factors, from the size of your space to the number of clothes you have. When you’re ready to put what you’re keeping back, here are a few closet organization tips you can use to have a neat and functional space:

Group items: Put similar items together, like pants, dresses and tops in the same sections. Closet dividers can help you separate the sections effectively.

Use space-saving hangers: Space-saving hangers can be a good investment if you have a lot of clothes. In addition to creating more room, it can also improve the aesthetic of your closet space.

Effective folding: There are several folding techniques you can use that save space and make your clothes look neat.

Seasonal storage: Only keep clothes that are seasonally appropriate in your main closet. The rest can be tucked away in a guest bedroom or under your bed until their season rolls around again. If you don’t have extra space, place them at the back of your closet.
