Getting Organized

28 Topic: organizing
 
closetI’ve always been extremely organized but over the last couple of years, things somehow got out of control and my closets were beyond messy. I decided it was time to take action! My closets are now organized (albeit not nearly as nice as the one pictured above). I also managed to donate nine (yep, I said nine) large bags of clothes, shoes, etc.
This process reminded me of a few of my favorite organizing items:
hangershangersHangers
Nothing drives me crazier than mismatched and/or cheap hangers. For tops, I like the wood hangers from Target. They’re cheap but well made. For pants, I love the non-slip friction hangers and can’t imagine how I ever managed without those.
shelf dividersShelf Dividers
These will keep your sweaters from toppling over. They’re also great for linen closets. Mine are made of wire but I really like the look of these acrylic ones.
purse organizer Purse Organizer
I’ve tried many solutions for storing handbags but this is the best one I have found. Works for all sizes and keeps them nice and neat.

For jewelry, nothing beats a tie rack for hanging necklaces and lots of drawers for smaller items.
shoe boxShoes
I haven’t found a great solution for shoes yet. My only strategy is to post polaroids of the shoes outside of the boxes. Takes some work but it looks cool and makes finding your shoes much easier!
Stumble it!
