First, before
organizing your wardrobe, we need to do some cleaning. Even though, it is
sometimes hard to get rid of the clothes we don't wear too much (although they seem
new), the truth is that if we don’t use it much, is because we probably don’t
need it. For this reason, many experts say that if you haven’t worn that shirt,
jean (or whatever) in two years, you need to get rid of it. If you give away
the clothes you don't wear, you will be helping someone who does need it, and,
at the same time, it will help you have more space in your wardrobe.
Once you
get rid of all those clothes you don't need, a second idea to organize your
wardrobe is to separate (the wardrobe) into different sectors. For example, you
may use a drawer for your underwear, another one for t-shirts (you may also
have one drawer for those t-shirts you wear to go to work, another one for
those you use for doing exercise...), etc.
A third
idea to organize your wardrobe is to use boxes (there are boxes made of carton,
wood, or linen, for example). These boxes may be good to put accessories in
them (necklaces, scarves, belts, handbags, etc.). This way, your wardrobe will
look more tidy and organized and it will be easier to find what you need.
A fourth
idea to help you organize your wardrobe is to buy those vacuum packed bags to
put all those things you don’t wear too often. One example may be the blankets.
If you have spare blanket in your wardrobe, you may use these bags, and so they
will occupy half the space they regularly occupy. You may do the same thing
with the pullovers during the summer. The good thing about these types of bags
is that not only do they make things occupy half the space, but they are also
good to avoid dust getting in the clothes.
Lastly,
another idea to fully organize your wardrobe is to solve the shoe issue. Shoes
tend to take up a lot of space, especially in women’s wardrobes who tend to
have more than two pairs. For this reason, nowadays there are some elements
that help you keep your shoes organized: there are piece of cloth with big pocket
to put the shoes in them -you may hang this in the inner side of your wardrobe;
There are also shoe organizers that are kept under the bed; there are special
drawers for shoes; and, also bars to put your shoes. You should choose which
shoe organizer adapts best to your needs and throw all those shoe boxes that
take a lot of space in your wardrobe.
These are 5
ideas to organize your wardrobe, so you can find everything you need (when you
need it).
