Closet Makeover Part 2
Closet Makeover Part 2
In my last blog, I gave you a sneak peek into how I re-organized and beautified my client’s closet in California.
Today, you’ll see more and yes, I know that she is very lucky to have a large closet.
Please know that everything I did in terms of organizing will also work in your own closet, no matter how small or big it may be.
I used the floor shoe rack for sneakers and hiking boots, tucked into a corner instead of where it was before under the window.
Tip 1 – Keep all your shoes in one place. In the photo above you can see she had some on the floor, upper shelves, and more in bins. This is very common, but not a good use of space.
Instead, keep them all together on the floor, or if you are lucky enough to have shelves, store them there. See the above-after photo.
Note: Donate or consign the shoes you no longer can, or will wear again.
Tip 2 – Use all the same hangers for your clothes. No plastic or wire ones…please!
Tip 3 – Use see-thru plastic boxes for shoes. It’s ok to use a regular cardboard box now and then too, or use the clear boxes for larger shoes/booties.
Tip 4 – Use a pretty laundry bin. Here’s the one I found for this closet makeover.
Tip 5 – Hang like with like. Sleeveless with sleeveless, short sleeves with shorts, etc.
Tip 6 – If you are fortunate enough to have room for a rug and chair or bench, then use it! I asked my client if she had an extra chair and rug, and much to my delight, she did!
You can transform your closet with tips 1 to 5 in a matter of hours, and find pieces you forgot you had, and recognize those you need to say goodbye to.
P.S. I redid another of her closets which I’ll share one day as well.
