Get the Closet of Your Dreams

 

Perhaps inspired by the closets seen on popular home design television shows and websites, homeowners are beginning to look at their closets in a new light.    Whether your closets are the size of a small bedroom or the size of a locker, here are a few tips to help you get the storage spaces you've always wanted.

 

  1. Clear everything out of the closet, and organize it into three piles:  keep, donate or toss.
  2. Assess the space you have, and decide how you want to organize and store your items.
  3. Install lighting which will help you see everything you have from clothing to craft supplies.
  4. Don't be aftraid to experiment with bold color and patterns.   If your closet has a door, spruce it up with paint and/or change the hardware.
  5. Take off the doors, and put up curtains. Many older homes have smaller closets and this will create the illusion of space.
  6. Install built-in custom cabinets.   In homes with small closets, floor-to-ceiling cabinets may give you the space you need, and they come in sizes that are perfect for the items you intend to store.
  7. Turn a wall into a closet    No one says that a closet has to be built into a room....line up a dresser, hutch, cabinet, shelving, bookcase, etc. along a wall to add the storage space needed.
  8. Look for furniture with storage space, such as an ottoman or bedframe with drawers under the bed, to keep the closet clutter in check.

 

Top areas for storage:

  1. Laundry rooms
  2. Linen closet in bathrooms
  3. Garage storage space
  4. Walk-in pantry in the kitchen
