I’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:
Hangers
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 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 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.
Jewelry
For jewelry, nothing beats a tie rack for hanging necklaces and lots of drawers for smaller items.
Shoes
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!
One of my new year’s resolution is to get rid of clutter. So I decided to start with the easy kind of clutter and clean up my closets and garage. I spent 8 hours yesterday and most of it was going through all the junk in my garage. My question is, where does all this stuff come from? I don’t remember ever buying it, getting it as a gift, inheriting it, etc.
