If you often look at your wardrobe with a sense of despair then you’re not alone. Many people whether they consider themselves fashionistas or the average shopper, struggle to establish a wardrobe that they love and have curated with the pieces they’re itching to wear.
Not only that but you might find that your wardrobe space is a mess and needs some desperate organization. Well, good thing you’ve landed on the right page of the internet today. Here’s how to create a Pinterest-worthy wardrobe organization system.
Assess and edit your wardrobe contents first
First and foremost, what is the current situation of your wardrobe? What does it look like? Is it providing you with everything you need to get the most out of your fashion choices? If not, then it’s time to splurge and treat yourself to some beautiful handmade wardrobes.
Make sure that the wardrobes you get fit your space but also fit the volume of clothing you have to put in it. Look at your clothing in more detail too. Assess what items you’ve not worn in over a year and if that’s the case for some clothing, sell it on or donate it to someone who’ll use it.
Once you’ve whittled down your selection of clothes, you can then work on organizing it all.
Organise into seasons and then by garment type
When it comes to having a functional wardrobe organisation system, it’s imperative that you can see every season in front of you. Your garments should be separated into seasons and that way, you’ll be able to grab things knowing which part of the wardrobe to gravitate to.
It might be that you don’t have enough space, so make sure you keep one or two seasons of clothing in storage bags under your bed until it’s time to swap over. Once you’ve organised it by season, organise it by garment type so that you can easily pick out clothing without needing to rifle through lots of clothes in a panic.
Get the same hangers for a seamless appearance
Over time, you’re likely to collect a vast assortment of hangers and while this might be helpful to have enough for when you’ve got more clothes than you need, it can end up making your closet feel a little out of sorts.
To create that seamless Pinterest aesthetic of an organised wardrobe, make sure you get the same hangers. Be selective on what type of hangers these are depending on the type of garments you have.
Learn how to fold to utilize space
Folding is an important skill set when it comes to creating the perfect wardrobe organisation system. Be mindful of how you’re folding currently and whether this is utilising the space enough. If it isn’t, then it’s worth learning some tricks in folding to help utilise the space better.
Install over-the-door storage
Finally, to make full use of your wardrobe space, don’t forget about the doors of your wardrobe. This can be a great use of space simply by adding some over-the-door storage. Perfect for holding your shoes or odds and sods that would otherwise be in a heap on the floor.
Your dream of a Pinterest-worthy wardrobe is easy enough so set aside an afternoon to tackle it head-on.
