Folding clothes – definitely not a task that one would look forward to doing but, day in and day out, it simply needs to be done. If you have lots of clothes, then wardrobe organization just became doubly taxing.

Wardrobe Organization: The General Tips
First, of course, you have to make good use of every possible amount of space. To maximize your storage (especially when you have limited closet space), be sure to pack and keep out-of-season clothing out of the closet.
Hang the clothes that you wear often. It’s been proven that clothes that are not seen or just folded away are often not worn anyway so display or hang those that you use in the office or at school.
Always keep one or two hooks empty inside your wardrobe. This is for those moments when you need to have a quick clean up yet you’re so tired so you just end up hanging your clothes.
Never forget the backs of your wardrobe as well as the deep shelves. Check also how you can further utilize the high places.
Hanging a second closet rod right below the main one basically offers double hanging space. Buy a reaching rod or a stool so you can have access to each and every garment that you hang.
Buy hangers that you love so that you will find joy organizing your clothes. Use cascading hooks. These work well with just about any type of hanger. Use more than one – use two at a given time.
You can also have tiered hangers for those lovely skirts and trousers.
As for your knitted clothing, be sure to fold them rather than hang them since hangers create bumps that are pretty unpleasant.
If you happen to have deep shelves, then fold clothes neatly. Use those spaces behind your shelves to store those sweaters or even your sandals. For drawers or dressers, be sure to stack your clothes vertically instead of horizontally.
Avoid stacking clothes so high on open shelves.
Now when it comes to your shoes, you can invest in those affordable over-the-door shoe organizers. These are better since closet space is too valuable and with too many shoes to hang, they have the potential to eat up most of your wardrobe space.
Bookshelves can also be utilized as boot shelves. ‘See the play of words there?
As for those precious bags, be sure to stuff them with tissue or balled newspapers so that they are able to keep their shapes. Sit them on shelves instead of hanging them so that the handles don’t get stretched out. To keep them up, find bookends that complement the theme of your room.
Now, lastly, let’s organize those accessories. Use towel racks for hanging your scarves. Have two installed on the inside of your closets.
As for your jewelry, belts, sunglasses, and everything else, they can be stored in open boxes, cups, jars, or hung on screwed-in hooks.
Cabinet Shopping
Now that you know how to organize, let’s find you the best wardrobe, cabinet or drawers for your fashionable items.
A basic wardrobe is the quickest way to have clothing storage. This typically comes with a frame, rail, and a shelf. The more decorative types come with more drawers at the bottom of the wardrobe.
The armoire, on the other hand, is the more ornate version of the basic type. Most of these are made of durable wood. They have the basic parts of a wardrobe plus other options such as adjustable rods and shelves.

There is a huge advantage in having a walk-in closet at home. This can provide you with lots of extra storage space for your clothes and other stuff. This kind of closet, though, requires an equally huge amount of energy and preparation time. If you’re still interested, then it’s time to explore your options.
The first option is to set up multiple shelves on two or more sides of the space allocated for the walk-in closet. The more shelves that you set up, the categories you can create, meaning, you can have a separate shelf for your shoes, for your bags, and for your designer clothing.
The design of the walk-in closet also depends hugely on your storage needs. Almost always, it is adjacent to the master bedroom and can be accessed by a separate door. You have the option to continue the theme in the master bedroom to the walk-in closet. In other homes, this room is near the biggest bathroom.
Here are some guidelines if you want to store your clothing, shoes, bags and other accessories in the right manner.

Put Tasteful Furnishing
Armoire drawers and dressers would still look great inside your walk-in closet. These can hold seasonal clothing such as sweaters, sweatshirts and jackets. For the regularly used clothing such as jeans, blouses, shirts and undies, use a more accessible and spacious closet.
Yes, there is nothing wrong with putting a closet within a walk-in closet. In fact, the most beautiful closets, drawers, and vanity tables will make a huge difference on the overall attractiveness of the room. Put in some matching storage units and you can stow away more apparel and some tools needed in keeping clothes looking their finest. Have a separate drawer for buttons, iron, ironing board, and a mending kit.
Modern armoires and wardrobes now come in various styles. Choose the piece that is most appealing to you. Consider also your chosen theme for your walk-in closet. The classiest wardrobes that you can find and eventually consider an heirloom are usually made of wood. Find out which wood can make your space more charming.
Also, do not forget that no walk-in closet should be without an elegant mirror.
Let Go of Pre-Loved Clothing
Clothes are better able to retain their best looks if they are stacked in a neat way. This is also the case if you hang them freely. So go ahead and create some breathing room in your drawers and closets by giving away some of your apparel. Those that you have not worn in a year or no longer fit you can be given away as donations.

Use Labels
Create a reminder system that would indicate which items go where. This is an effective way to speedily locate items or for other people to return the items to their proper places. Like items should be stored together.
Apart from labels, you can also use wood hangers for your special garments. The larger the hanger, the better able they are to retain the original shape of the garment.
There are also some people who prefer to have weekly dividers in their closets.
It’s a small wonder why many people prefer to have pre-sorted clothing and accessories storage units. It becomes a lot easier to dress up during busy mornings if you have everything in its proper place.
Customization for Children
Even smaller children would benefit to have their own closet inside your home’s walk-in closet. Choose multitier cabinets or those with dividers. While plastic boxes and fabric bags may be used as storage units but these cannot provide the level of toughness that you need if you really want to protect your children’s church clothing, uniforms, shoes or toys.
