Whose afraid of their own closet? Being a self-proclaimed neat freak, I am constantly hoping to keep my overflowing closet organised. You don’t need fancy drawers or containers to make a space look incredible! Closets with the best colour schemes or spaced out items often look better than one that’s crammed to the fullest! I hope these 5 points will help you organise your space and make it look magnificent.

  1. Colour tone: One of the major problems I constantly faced, was making the clothes that I had hung, looking co-ordinated. I found an easy guide, that will help you arrange your clothes. However I would suggest, that black clothes should face the left side, rather than the light.
  1. Folding: Always fold a particular type of clothing the same way, regardless of its color, quantity etc. This will not only save space, but also look neater. It will also be very easy for you to find the item you are looking for!
  1. Decluttering: I know there is a new fad of decluttering and posting pictures/videos etc. The basic pointers I use are: Is it a necessity? Will i wear it in the future? Do i feel good in it? Ideally hoping for a YES for 2 of those questions. Anything that has had the tags for many years and still not been worn? I think you know that you wont be wearing that anytime soon.
  1. To-Be-Fixed: All items that require alterations, replacement or need to be embellished further can be kept together! That will help you organise more when you do get a free day or a few unencumbered hours!
  1. Hangers: One of the tips that I have seen most often is : “Buy all same colour and type of hangers”. Although that tip is helpful, but often not everyone can afford to do the same or what if the store no longer keeps your favorite hangers? In such cases, I prefer to keep similar hangers together, it will immediately look more assembled.

Did these tips help you? Are there any tips you have found useful? Let me know, in the comments :)
