Many people dream of having a walk-in closet when they're shifting to a new place or getting renovations done. However, most of them don't realize how important managing such closets are. The only way to take full advantage of your walk-in closets is by organizing and cleaning them well. A well-managed closet usually has more room for storage and looks nice too.
Here are some of the easiest tips to organize your new walk-in closet. Following these will help you in the long run, especially if you've recently had a walk-in closet made.
Store Folded Items In Separate Boxes
Hanging everything in your closet isn't a practical idea. Many people choose to fold the items they don't need regularly or the ones that require no ironing. However, putting all the folded items together makes the closet messier.
A better idea is to use small-sized boxes to put all the folded items inside. You can put these boxes inside your drawers and on the shelves to compartmentalize the space. Try learning smart folding techniques to minimize your space usage. Once folded tightly, put similar items together in the boxes and place the boxes inside the closet neatly.
Stack Shoes On Shelves Instead Of Using Storage Boxes
Storing all of your shoes in separate boxes might keep them clean, but it will consume a lot of space. Try to get straight and wide shelves fitted over and below your hanging compartments. Align your shoes neatly over these shelves with minimal space separating one pair from another. It would be smart to put the right and left shoe on opposite shelves to save even more space.
Use Small Boxes And Trays For Accessory Storage
Putting all your jewelry on display in your walk-in closets isn't a practical idea. Use all the empty jars, boxes, and ice-cube trays in your kitchen for your benefit instead.
Storing your accessory items in smaller boxes protects them and makes room for more jewelry in your collection. You can use identification labels for each storage box so that you can easily find what you need.
Install Better Lighting And Mirrors
Bright lights and mirrors used in a walk-in closet make it look wider and cleaner. Try using warm lights and one of two tall mirrors in your closet to give an illusion of more space. A well-lit cabinet with mirrors will also make it easier for you to get ready. You can see how you're looking and can do your own makeup perfectly. We suggest going for a full-length mirror with vanity lights on its sides for a modern look.
Go For Hangers And Hooks
Hanging your clothing items keeps them wrinkle-free and saves a lot of your closet's space. Try to hang multiple belts and scarves on the same hanger to save space. Additionally, you can get hooks attached at your door's back and empty walls to hang your loungewear and other casual items.
