Clean And Organize Your Closet


It's everyone's dirty little secret...a dirty closet. There are plenty of ways to clean and organize your closet without a headache. You can make your own closet organizing system and closet organizers without paying a dime!


Here are some tips and ideas to help clean and organize your closet space without spending a ton of money. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. First off, look through everything in your closet. Decide if you really want it, or your just keeping it...to keep it. If you have no use for it - it needs to go.


Same rules apply to clothing. If you haven't worn it in 6 months, chances are you are not going to and it needs to go.


2. Make good use out of old things. Clothing, shoes, old purses, and accessories can be donated to The Good Will, or Salvation Army.


3. Now that you have gotten rid of a few things, you will notice you have extra room!


A really easy way to help organize is to seperate your clothing by season, use, or function. Example: Your work clothes go together, etc.


4. Invest in some shoe racks, space saving boxes or containers, and labels.


If your a shoe lover, a rack will be your best friend!! Space bags or plastic containers will help you store accessories, and other odds & ins much easier. You can label them and not have to worry about trying to find them later.


5. If you don't have room, or money for shoe racks. You can build your own. A friend once told me a very clever way to build a easy slide out shoe rack.


You can buy a piece of ply wood from your local hardware store and a few rollers. You screw the rollers on the bottom on the ply board, and instantly you have a sliding shoe rack.


You can place it in the bottom of you closet, or even under your bed to create some more room.


6. Another really easy and inexpensive way to help get organized is to make some shelves. Go to your local hardware store and buy a few pieces of board and shelf hangers.


You'll be amazed at what you can store, and how much money you saved.
