Without a place to call home, items will turn into clutter whether that is in the closet itself or in your bedroom. Is your closet so overrun that your clothes are now taking over your bedroom? I find this the easiest as I always know where to find things, and this makes it very easy to mix and match clothes.
Define yourself. My life is a mix of slow days at home (and working in my pajamas) and fast paced travel. Remember, all the clothes you never wear could make a big difference to someone else’s life. These are cluttering up the rod, the closet and your life. I decided that I would re-arrange everything in my closet by outfit combinations. Arrange by outfit combinations - which is what I did.
I hung everything together that I could possibly wear with that jacket and ended up with a pencil skirt, plaid pants, indigo jeans, black jeans, crepe pants, 4 blouses and 2 tops for a minimum of 10 outfit combinations. Give it a try, you will be surprised at how many new outfit combinations you can create. Find one that fits your personal style and figure, get it tailored, and wherever you go, you’ll always have the perfect outfit.
But, being a personal stylist is about SO much more than just running off to the mall and swiping credit card after credit card. I like packing cubes, because they’re a good way to limit how much stuff you take! If you’re overwhelmed with clutter and are in the process of trying to declutter, making an effort to stop, or at least slowdown, the amount of stuff coming into your home is essential!
Once you’ve made your way through all the rooms in your home, remember that decluttering is a continuous process. If your rods, shelves, drawers and floor space are crammed full of wrinkled items, start decluttering today. Utilize every square inch of your closet from top to bottom, including every wall, the floor and the back of the door. Tip: Don’t forget to get a receipt to claim back some tax on your donations.
Start by decluttering. If you don’t love it, wear it or look good in it, then get rid of it. Opening up your closet should be like arriving at a really good party where everyone you see is someone you like. Instead, have you thought after folding your jeans upright so you can see what you have and reach them easily. Folding them neatly keeps your drawers organized.
PLEASE DON’T DONATE to them. Keep what you need, and consider donating or selling the things you want (or don’t actually need).- Clear out by season-when getting ready for summer, clear out the winter clothing and so forth. Make your closet as attractive as possible to inspire you to keep it organized but schedule in a monthly review to keep on top of things. Replace things in a place appropriate to their style (eg, skirts on hangers, sweaters on shelves, camisoles in baskets).
Take everything out of your closet and group items in a way that works for you (eg, color, style, type, function). But even with a home, your closet will still attract clutter in the form of items that shouldn’t really be in there. Still stick with the onesies as they aren’t out of that diaper phase yet, and won’t be for quite some time. Remember if you can’t see it, you won’t wear it, so get rid of some stuff and make space for the items you don’t want to forget about.
You also don’t miss seeing others because they’re thinner. Don’t waste your money. You have already seen some options for storing away what you don’t use often. For stubborn dirt and grime, you may need to use a mop. If so you need some tips on how to organize a closet. How do you like to arrange your closet? Use closet organizers to maximize the space. The best way to use the space in the return is to place your closet organizer against the short wall.
If you have a walk-in closet that has shelves and hanging bars, switch it up so that everything is now hanging or folded in a different place. If you have a TV, you can place it in front of your sofa or bed. I can easily picture what it would have turned into years ago as his older relatives downsized.
I have always arranged my closet by activity and color. If you arrange by activity now, change that and arrange by season or color. You can organize your closet specifically by color so that you are able to find certain colors easier. I organize by activity, then by item and then color. I removed everything from my closet and selected 1 item I wanted to create an outfit around.
