Small living spaces usually come with limited closet space. Here are some tips to maximize small closet spaces for that massive clothes number.
Herald Extra said that the key in managing a small closet is to think vertically. Evaluate the closet space on how high shelves can be installed. Shelves and baskets are the perfect tools in organizing things inside a small closet. Sturdy bins and stacking shelves are also highly recommended where shoes, sweaters and purses can be stored away.
Real Simple also provides hacks in maximizing small spaces. To gain extra space inside the closet, slim hangers and bins that have pull-out drawers are highly recommended. Also, mounting a peg board at the back of the closet door or on the closet wall can store other items like accessories and small purses. Stowing out-of-the-season clothes will also give more room for items that are in season. By using canvas boxes, sweaters can be neatly folded away.
Use the closet door for other items like scarves and belts. She Finds also suggests storing clothes outside the closet. By using an attractive wall or ceiling-mounted rod placed on the corner of the bedroom, more clothes can be arranged. Adding more shelves in the bedroom could also be the key to add more storage space. Install cabinets or shelves on high corners of the bedroom wall to place other items.
Lastly, to make sure everything is organized and neat, it is important to simplify the wardrobe. Every now and then, evaluate the items inside the closet and let go of the things that are rarely used. Having too much inside the closet will not only cause less storage space but will also have more clutter. So before organizing the closet, take everything out first and keep the items that are most needed.
