Closet Getting Smaller? |
By Marlene Devine
just one more thing in? It may be time to declutter your closet.
No matter what the size, you can organize your closet so it works for you.
Purge – Review each item in your closet. Ask yourself, “Do I like it?
Does it fit? Do I feel comfortable in it? Is it in style? Will I ever wear this again?”
If you don’t answer “Yes” to at least one of those questions, it’s time to part with
it. Don’t forget to include shoes in the purge.
Donate everything that’s in good condition, toss the rest. As part of the closet purge, clear out other items that are out of place as well. Are there items that don’t belong in the closet? Things such as items that belong to other family members, stuff that got tossed in there as part of a cleanup in other parts of the house (I know, it happens), clothes that are waiting to be donated/repaired/sewn…move them out and bring them where they belong.

Hanging all the clothes in the same direction on matching hangers creates a clean look that adds to the feeling of order. Putting a little attention into neatly folding your clothes, and maybe even arranging by color on the shelves, will make getting dressed every morning feel like a high-end shopping experience. Well, maybe not, but it is pleasing to look at and just a little fun. Shelf dividers are a great way to keep those folded clothes from toppling over when you remove a sweater.
