What is the best way to organize your wardrobe?

Whether your wardrobe is a huge closet, full of shelves (what a dream!) or a small, improvised piece in the corner of the room, keeping this space organized is essential. But what is the best way to organize your wardrobe?

There is no recipe for a cake, you will have to find the way that works best for you. For example, a good starting point is to ensure that the pieces you use most frequently are within easy reach – neither up there nor down there.

Ideally, your wardrobe should be a safe haven in your daily life: clean, elegant and functional for all your clothes and accessories.

An organized wardrobe simplifies your routine, allows you to get rid of what you no longer want while also giving you an excuse to buy new things. ; )

You need to get rid of clutter – to do this, use shelves and compartments, creating specific spaces for each type of item.

Ideally, your closet organization system should be simple, personalized, and repeatable, so you can maintain organization for a long time.

Gone are the days of reaching into a drawer looking for a t-shirt you swore was there, leaving a mountain of clothes on the couch in the living room, and picking up a stocked bag from the clutter and watching the entire pile fall apart.

Here are seven smart closet organization tips for your inspiration.

 

#1 – Organizing wardrobes without spending a lot

You don’t need to spend a lot of money to make your wardrobe more functional. Quite the contrary, you will discover here that many ways to upgrade your space have zero cost.

Organization methods can increase or reduce the size of your closet. Try, for example, storing winter clothes in a suitcase during the summer and vice versa, or better methods of folding the two pieces.

These are simple tasks that can be turned into habits at no cost to you.

#2 – Wardrobe organization starts with hangers

It may seem crazy, but have you ever noticed your hangers? One is made of thick wood, another is plastic, another came free from the cleaners. One way to start organizing is to have matching hangers for the same types of clothing items.

Let’s say you use wooden hangers for coats and plastic ones for pants – just to give an example.

It may seem like an exaggeration, but matching hangers help keep clothes placed on top of each other, preventing them from wrinkling. Not to mention that, aesthetically, it is more pleasing.

#3 – Small wardrobe organization

If you’re working on organizing a small closet, you’ll need some updates to make it more functional.

We can summarize it in three points: efficient methods of folding clothes, occupying empty spaces and separating the space into sections for specific items. We will address each of these items below.

Remembering that a general cleaning to get rid of what you are not using once every six months is also strongly recommended.

#4 – How to organize a couple’s wardrobe? Install new spaces

This is the best way to get extra space in your double bedroom wardrobe – or a single bedroom that is too small. You will occupy spaces in your closet that were previously being neglected.

Look for organizing boxes, prefabricated shelves, trays or even your own shelves to create more space in your closets. You will be surprised at the variety of options available for those going through the same thing as you.

#5 – Wardrobe organization by separating sessions

Now that you’ve created extra space in your closet, take advantage of this new space and create dividers to organize your clothes and accessories. Start by separating the items by category: jeans, t-shirts, blouses, dresses.

When choosing the space for each session in your wardrobe, consider the volume that the pieces occupy. Blouses take up less space, so a smaller shelf can do the trick.

Long dresses and very bulky coats need more space, so they deserve larger shelves (or an organizing box).

If you are a visual person, another way to organize is by color. Follow the logic of the rainbow colors for greater harmony: red, orange, yellow, green, shades of blue, indigo and violet.

And no matter what, make sure you leave the items you use most within easy reach. Items you use less need to stay out of your way.

#6 – Organizing wardrobes with better folding and hanging methods

After separating your wardrobe into sections, it’s time to learn new folding and hanging techniques. Choose to stack your clothes on dividers and shelves for better access.

If you are using drawers, use Marie Kondo’s vertical folding or file folding method. Google it. ; )

Bras can be nested inside each other to save drawer space. Suitcases must follow the matrioshka style – those Russian dolls that go from largest to smallest –, that is, smaller suitcases inside larger suitcases to occupy a single space.

Pants can be hung to take up less space. Hangers will also help keep them wrinkle-free and wrinkle-free. Items like scarves and ties can occupy a single hanger to save space.

Hats, caps and berets can be stacked. Belts can be rolled up and placed on a shelf. And if you have too many accessories, evaluate whether you are really using everything you have. Otherwise, throw it away.

#7 – Wardrobe organization based on long and short items

This last item is specifically reserved for long dresses. Pay attention to this piece, as it takes up more space vertically.

To prevent it from dragging and disturbing your wardrobe organization, try folding it or, even better, separate a space with a greater height to be able to allocate this item without it being damaged.
