FOUR EASY STEPS TO ORGANZIE YOUR CLOSETS


Take inventory: Use a checklist to think about the items that need to be stored or removed. Ask yourself:
How frequently is it used?
How many items need to be accommodated?
Is there a more appropriate place for it?
Is it time to dispose of it?

Remove the extras. Reduce visual clutter and gain more space by removing items you rarely or never wear because they don't fit, aren't comfortable, or are out of style. Sort them in four boxes: belongs elsewhere; give away or sell; not ready to get rid of, and trash. Date the not ready to get rid of box and look through it a few months to determine if the clothes still should be saved.

Group like items together - Shirts or blouses all in one area, skirts or pants in another. Use double-hung racks, one at waist height and one at eye level, to separate attire and maximize hanging space. Having designated areas for your items means you will always know where to put them away and where to find them the next time.

Keep objects close at hand if they are worn often. Save time looking for your favorite clothes and accessories by putting them in a place that's easy to reach. Designate your top shelf for storing items used infrequently.
