Organizing your clothing closets

The closet is one of the fastest places in our houses to get cluttered. It is so easy to stick something that you do not know what to do with in the closet. The clothes closet also becomes a storage area for clothing and accessories that are obsolete, ripped, or blemished. It is a holding place for clothes that might come back into style, accessories that were bargain but we do not really like.

Cleaning out a clothing closet can hurt. It would be hard to throw away things that is still good, things that cost us a lot of money, but still you need to pull out everything you do not love or find useful. In your wardrobe closet, if you are having a hard time figuring out what you love, flip your hangers around so that they are hanging on the rod backwards.

As you wear each piece of clothing put it back with the hanger hanging correctly on the rod. At the end of a year you will know exactly what you have not worn because the hangers of those items will still be backwards. If you have not worn it in a year, you don't love it or find it useful. Probably, this would be a great technique to the one who find hard to figure out the dislikes form the clothes closets.

If you still find more complexity in organizing your clothing closets, purge out every thing from your closets as clean as a slate. Sort out those items you wear a lot, those you don't and why. Get rid of no matter which that no longer fits, is worn out, or just doesn't make you look good.

Separate your wardrobe by item and categorize. For instance, put all the pants together, all the skirts together, and all the tops together, etc. To prevent cluttering for the small items such as ties, scarves, shoes, belts, etc use storage container, baskets or closet organizers.

Do keep in mind that when you do not wear an item for more than six or more months, it probably won't get worn and it's time to get rid of it. So, maintain a basket for the unused things as a temporary spot.

Stand back and look at your closet and give yourself a pat on the back. Invite your friends over to see all of your hard work and organizing skills. CELEBRATE by treating yourself to something special. You deserve it.
