I think I will give that one a try. One idea to get more space is to hang multiple garments in one spot using soda can tabs. Key items you may want to have on hand when tackling this project are extra hangers, shopping bags to place clothes for donations, garbage bags for clothes that have food stains, and can’t be donated, and clear storage boxes and space bags to place seasonal items in.
Separating pants legs to give more space for air to move. Of course I have a young boy so more often than not his wear out from use and repeated soaking and washing and bleaching.

I spent years “organizing” my clothes, but it wasn’t until I learned the difference between organizing and decluttering that anything changed. Additionally, it may be helpful to divide your clothes into categories (e.g. work clothes, casual clothes, etc.) and declutter one category at a time. For me, the freedom and reduction of stress that personal uniforms provide was well worth the homogeneity of my outfits or risk of growing tired of one look.
If you have one that’s short and wide, you can also hang clothing items above it. I prefer to hang my clothes - until it comes time to wear sweaters. In Zone 4, the back of my closet, I have another section for slacks and blouses, clothes I only wear if I have to meet with a client. When going through my closet, I have to constantly remind myself about my goal.
Depending on the configuration of your closet, you may have a corner to store a small chest of drawers or plastic bins for shoes and other items. Other than that, dividing all the available clothes by season and storing them in separate containers or drawers is also important. As a general rule, if you haven’t worn your clothes in six months or a year, then it’s time to let it go.

Some people prefer to hang their clothes by color, however 90% of my clothes are black, so I find it easier to hang them by sleeve length.
ORGANIZE BY CLOTHING TYPE: Perhaps another obvious tip, but keep the same types of items together, like your jeans with jeans, dresses with dresses, etc. The whole point is to make your life EASIER so you can find things in a timely manner. So many times I find myself holding on to something “just in case”. I’ve found that they fall over in our drawers, Wolfie, when I stack them.
This is where they’re starting to realize that they have fingers and toes and they’re going to start moving their little bodies all over the place and showing you how strong they really are. I start with button-down shirts, then long sleeves, then 3/4 sleeves, to short-sleeves to tank tops to strapless. After everything is removed, start by vacuuming the floor and baseboards. I hope you enjoy following along on this perfectly imperfect journey through life with me, Mama K!
