7 ways to achieve your closet organization goals

There’s something so satisfying about spring cleaning your closet. Donating the items you no longer wear and making sure that whatever’s left is nice and organized makes getting ready in the morning that much more pleasant.

One of the reasons why it’s so satisfying, and often necessary, is because closets become cluttered so easily. What starts off as a perfectly methodical system can transform into a disorderly mess in a week’s time. Clothing and accessories that were once organized by size and colour now dangle halfway off their hangers, sit in piles on the floor or have become lost in the depths of closet chaos.

Okay, that might sound a bit dramatic… but for many of us, it’s the truth! Luckily, there are some special features that can help you make the most of your closet space and stay organized all year round.

Here are a few tips that can help make your #closetgoals a reality!


Divide and conquer

Do you feel like no matter how neatly you fold your clothes or gently you place your jewelry, your drawers always end up looking like a mess? Flattening out wrinkles and untangling necklaces is no fun, especially when you’re rushing to get out the door.

Drawer dividers are a great way to keep everything neat and organized. You can even have them customized to perfectly fit your drawers.


All in one basket

Go ahead, put all your socks in one basket. Or pants. Or scarves.

Pull-out baskets grant you easy access to your clothing without taking up too much space. They come in a variety of sizes and colours, so you can customize them to match your closet’s look and storage needs.


Iron out the kinks

Do you put off ironing for as long as possible? Maybe you even opt for the throw-it-in-the-dryer-for-a-few-minutes option, or the hang-it-in-the-bathroom-while-you-shower trick?

What if you had a fold-out ironing board right there in your closet? With super convenient access to your ironing board, you’ll be looking sharp in no time, without worrying about a clunky board taking up a bunch of your closet space.


Hide your dirty laundry

Has the cute chair in the corner of your bedroom become a dirty laundry dump zone?

What you need is a hidden laundry hamper. Whether you prefer the tilting or sliding variety, a hidden hamper keeps dirty clothes out of sight and is easy to carry to the washing machine when the time comes.


Let things slide

Slide-out racks come in a variety of shapes and sizes and are a great way to maximize your closet space.

From pull-out tie bars to retractable valet rods, these simple yet effective gadgets give you a clear view of your clothing when you need it, and can be tucked inconspicuously away when you don’t.


If the shoe fits

You didn’t think we were going to forget about shoes, did you?

There are a few great ways to keep shoes organized. Try closet separators or slanted shelves with rails to keep your shoes in place.

Have an awkward closet corner to fill? A fancy spiral shoe rack is the perfect option.


Hooked on accessories

You know what they say — a place for everything and everything in its place. This is also true for accessories, which often go forgotten in the closet organization process.
