Organizing Your Closets
It’s spring, you have to be home and parts of your house need organizing. Sounds like the perfect time to do some spring cleaning. But if you’re not ready to dive right in, why not wade in with a closet or two? Here are some simple, closet-organizing tips to help you take the plunge.
- Utility Closet – Use a hanging sweater organizer from bedbathandbeyond.com for storing paper towels, trash bags and even small bins that hold miscellaneous items. Then, hang a shoe bag from containerstore.com for spray bottles, cleaning wipes cannisters and other cleaning essentials.
- Linen Closet – Instead of trying to fold your sheets and towels into perfect squares to keep on the shelves, roll your linens as you would items in a suitcase. The closet will look neater with the added benefit of giving you more room. For additional organization, use bins for holding the rolled sheets and towels on the shelves, and label those shelves and bins with a Brother P-Touch label maker from staples.com.
- Kids’ Closets – To maximize storage and make it easier for children to pick out their own clothes, hang an additional rod from the existing one. You can find a rod extender on target.com. Next, add some cute cubbies from amazon.com to store underwear, socks and pjs so that it’s easy even for toddlers to grab.
- Coat Closet – Replace your old-fashioned rod with a hook hanging system. Everyone in the house is more likely to use a hook than a hanger, and it definitely looks less cluttered. You can install individual hooks or mount a hook rack inside the closet. Both options can be found on amazon.com.
Even a little organization goes a long way – just getting those closets organized will feel so good. But, if the thought of organizing anything makes your head swim, contact GoodDeeds.
