Smart Ideas for Enhancing Home Closet Storage and Organization

Organizing a house well is much more than just decorating it. The efficient management of the available space is an integral part of organizing it. Optimization of space is not a standalone activity and involves organizing the storage units well. 

A clean and neatly arranged closet is indispensable. Planning the cabinets contribute to your ease of functioning in the house. I would recommend that you make sure to hire a reputable and experienced company such as this custom closets Edmonton shop. On their website, they clearly state that they will involve you in planning, strategy and design process. Below are some smart ideas on how to best utilize your closet space.  

Walk in closet with DIY Shelves

DIY Shelves

The more the better! If your wardrobe is packed already and you aren’t sure of where to keep your accessories, why not create a multi-level shelf? Empty wall space can be turned into a cabinet for storage and décor.

Make sure to install brackets so that you have an extra space to hang your favorite scarfs, night suits, etc. Shelves planted in the corners of your bedroom offer additional storage without interfering much.  

A drawer organizer can be a viable solution to your precious jewelry, accessories, and other vanity knick-knacks. From your magazine files to an old office desk, you can get creative when it comes to on-shelf storage ideas. 

Floating cubby walls make way for more space and complement the modern décor as well. These look better than the traditional shelving units. 

Big walk-in closet

Hidden closets

If you don’t like closets easting into your room space, it would be better to opt for wardrobes that disappear behind doors. These allow more walking space in the room and make your bedroom look more organized. Those shower hooks behind the bedroom door enable hanging just about anything. 

Need to hang special clothes. Pick your hangers carefully. Those that are slim and open work great for your trousers. If you are in a rush and want to grab off your pair off the rack, this design will ensure you enjoy that luxury without tattering your garment. The wooden hangers or ones with a pad are always better than the wired ones that are prone to losing shape.

Read more on how to choose your hangers for specific clothing here:

You can always roll up your woolens, sweaters, and other bulky apparel instead of hanging them. The latter is anyways not a great idea for materials that sag. Just in case you want to discard your old shoe organizer, consider painting and polishing it and simply use it to stow those extra blankets, pillows, or your fluffy clothes away in the revamped wardrobe. 

Nothing is handier than a free-standing clothing rack. That could sound like an old-school idea, but the accessibility it offers can easily beat a modern organizer. You can always have a playful design that befits the overall aesthetics of the room. Be it your everyday handbag, your favorite coat or a robe, just hang it there!

Closet with bright window and curtains

Draw some curtains

Just a curtain can add an exclusive space. Wondering how? You can demarcate your room into two sections using a curtain. This will prevent your wardrobe area from impeding the interior design of your bedroom. So, with a curtain, you can have a dressing room as well without any special installation or high costs.

Large mirror in bedroom dressing area

Mirror-mirror on the wall!

Turn your dressing room into a complete studio with just one full-size mirror. Not only will it give your room an enlarge look but will also light it up manifold times. This kind of a walk-in closet oozes comfort as you can keep everything you need to quickly dress up within your arm’s reach. Just add a bar along one side of the wall and you can drape your garments.

Any extra wall space you spot in your bedroom can be turned into a personalized display of your wardrobe favorites. For instance, your belts, scarves, stoles, handbags can be arranged on hangers on a rod mounted on the wall.

Clothes organized in closet by season

Stack by the season

Arranging your closet by the season is a good way to prevent clutter. Clothes that you wear in a season can be pulled to the front when organizing it so that you don’t land up messing up the entire cupboard in your hunt for your favorite piece. Installing organizers can prevent your clothes piles from toppling over. 

While seasonal sectioning is useful you can also assign separate racks to stack your tops, skirts, jackets, denim, etc. You can hang more than one rod and create a vertical display wardrobe.

Garments that you don’t use often can be placed on the higher rod. Also, make sure that you affix the lower rod at a distance from the ground so that anything you hang doesn’t sweep the ground. 

If you don’t want an extra storage unit for your shoes, you can always put your shoes on the door of your closet. All you would need is to simply hang rails on the inside of the closet door and place your stylish booties without squeezing any additional space out of your closet.

Be it your running sneakers, stilettoes, or beach slippers, your footwear deserves an exclusive space. Keeping them off the floor if you don’t want to trip over them. Shoes need to breathe and investing in a good shoe rack would be a good idea, especially if you have a score of them. You can organize them by activity and color. Click here for space-saving ideas on storing shoes.

Declutter the kid’s zone

If you are planning to organize the kid’s room, you will have to take care of their books and clothes long with the indispensable toys. Those things take up more space than you can imagine. A little planning can go a long way. Try doubling up the closet space to store their books and toys.

Investing in a multi-purpose cabinet unit would be a good idea as you would have ample space to compartmentalize it to suit your needs. Small stool-cum-storage boxes are also quite useful when it comes to dumping toys.

Reorganizing the wardrobe is likely to pile up cast-offs. Having a plan in mind will help you manage it better. Whether you want to donate your clothes or recycle them, plan in advance so that you don’t stress yourself on scouting for space to house the discarded items.
