Picture this scene. Your wardrobes are in bad need of reorganisation. You have been telling yourself and others that you must sort out your clothes and get your wardrobes organised. The weekends seem to come and go and you are no further forward. You still have piles of clothes on the hanging on doors and strewn over the backs of chairs. Your wardrobes are still housing clothes from a decade ago. To make matters worse many of the items no longer fit.
Despair no more as our tops tips will make the task simpler and easier. Your bedroom is about to change and you will love the new look and feel.

So let's start.
First things first designate a Saturday or Sunday morning to the job in hand and you are on the verge of reaping the rewards of an organised bedroom.

Start With The Wardrobe Shelves

Assign each shelf to a specific type of clothing. For example tee shirts or jumpers. If you have restricted shelf space put your tee shirts to one side and the jumpers to the other. A good alternative is to divide the shelf by using baskets or boxes. You can easily pull them forward and see the entire contents, which is very handy.
Go a step further and label or colour codes them so you can quickly find what you are looking for. Labelling may seem a bit extreme but we all need our memory jogging from time to time.
There is a great deal of merit is having a place for everything and everything in its place. Organised clothes are actually a pretty cool attribute. If like me you occasionally like to adopt a bohemian approach there is something free spirited about being just grab a few items and put them in a bag and go. Or for the formal moments having your clothes accessible and straight for the next meeting gives you time to concentrate on the day ahead. Just think no more scrambling for clothes on a busy Monday morning. Organising gives you that option.

Wardrobe Hanging Space

Now you’ve organised your wardrobe shelves it is time to move on to the wardrobes hanging space. For best results hang your clothes in sections. Keep heavy bulky items to one side (such as thicker jackets and coats) and lightweight items at the other (dresses, shirts. skirts). If you have double hanging this is ideal for lightweight clothes as shirts and skirts can be easily divided. Go a step further and hang them from dark to lighter shades.
It just looks fabulous and feels fresh every time you open the doors. If you do not have double hanging space consider purchasing some hanging rail and the fixings. You will double your hanging potential around ten minutes. Your clothes will look sharper with space for air to circulate.

Wardrobes Design Includes Floor To Ceiling Storage

Need To create Wardrobe Storage Space Think Seasonal

If wardrobe storage space is scare you must think seasonal. It is a good habit to form because you will naturally learn to dispose of any excess. For example if you have a jumper at the back of the wardrobe it will probably stay there for years never seeing the light of day. The reality is after a number winters most jumpers are past there best. By rotating your wardrobe space seasonally you are more likely to dispose of unwanted items. So keep a charity bag handy.
It works like this in the summer place all bulky items such as coats and jumpers to the loft / under your bed until the cold weather returns. Consider using vacuum bags to save even more space. Come the winter switch the long summer dresses and beach wear back to the winter garbs.
Suitcases can make the perfect storage unit and can unlock valuable room in your wardrobe.

Shoes Wisely

Keep shoes at the bottom of your wardrobe and rotate seasonally. Either invest in a shoe rack or simply line them up. If you alternate the direction of each shoe you will make the most of the space. Alternatively, stack your shoes in shoeboxes. The clear plastic varieties are good to see which shoes are which at a glance.

Wardrobe Accessories

Believe it or not the smaller items can be the hardest to organise. However, fixing a belt rack to the back of the wardrobe door serves multiple purposes. You can hang or tie scarves and hang belts. You can even use belt racks to hang jewellery.

We hope you enjoy the process of organising your wardrobes. You will find things you have forgotten about that may make you smile. You may even find things you find hard to part with like long lost memories. Whatever your experience at the end of it your entire room will feel fresher and open. You will save time and your clothes will be displayed to best effect.
