Accessories in Closet: Hang Up Your Best Accessory
If you want to achieve a neat, clutter-free appearance in your bedroom, buy accessories in closet organizers. If you can’t seem to find what you need, use a slat between two cabinets, then slide the shelves out and look closely. Use dividers to create storage areas or make a floor-to-ceiling wardrobe system. Closets are sometimes difficult to organize. Here’s how to organize your closet to get the most out of your closet space:
Buy a wicker or wood closet organizer
A slat board with wire sides and an inside snap feature. Place hangers on each side of the rack. Slip one accessory onto each wicker or wooden shelf. An assortment of scarves and necklaces will make your bedroom look rich and inviting. Purchase a matching wash hanger and drawstring sweater, slip on the washable fabric scarf, and hang the scarf over the hangers.
Hang a cheap
Thin satin or silk scarf from the closet rod, making sure it is tightly tied. A designer silk scarf looks especially elegant when hung in a large metal or wooden frame. A stylish scarf that has a built-in mirror is clever enough to hang over a mirror. If you buy such a dressier scarf, you might consider purchasing another accessory in the same color or pattern to match the mirror, such as a pair of earrings or a brooch.
Create an effective toolbox for organizing your clothes by buying or downloading a set of 10 printable closet organizing brochures from the Internet. Print out at least three different copies for every closet in your home. You can also buy organizers in ready-made formats from craft stores or discount retailers. When shopping, be sure to keep a checkbook ready to pay for extra items if needed.
Instead of just buying
A bunch of laundry pins, purchase a few cheap but well-made hooks from dollar shops. Hanging them in a few strategic locations in your bedrooms can transform a messy closet into one that is neat and tidy. Use the appropriate type of hooks for your clothing sizes. If you have a collection of tiny button up shirts, then use pin holders instead of buttons so the clothes don’t get pinched between them and the hooks.
Instead of wasting time searching for hand wash and dry cleaning detergents in your drawers and cupboards, purchase containers that come with dividers. Use these containers to separate hand washable and dry cleaning detergent in different compartments, which keep the hand wash out of your favorite jeans, and the dry cleaning away from your delicates. Instead of wasting your time by randomly purchasing random bottles of liquid shampoos, pick up a travel sized bottle of Neosporin and use it to freshen up after a long day at work or school.
Instead of throwing your wool socks and wool sweaters in a plastic garbage sack, hang them upside down in a mesh bag. The mesh bag traps body oils and dirt which dry quickly while preventing molds and mildew from forming. This will make it easier to retrieve your washed wool socks when you need them again. A mesh bag also makes it easier to hand wash your wool sweaters because you won’t need to add water to super clean them, a process known as hot water extraction.
Rather than using your iron to dry clean your clothing, purchase a mesh bag that has a drip plate on its lid so you can hang it open to dry in the open air. Instead of drying your items by hanging them upside down in a mesh bag, hang them face up in a dryer on a low cycle with the vent fan on. This is a much easier way to get your clothes perfectly dry and avoiding any ironing.
