We just cleaned out our closet and built the IKEA system in January. We hung our clothes with the hangers backward on the rod. Once we wear and wash that item, we hang it back on the rod the "normal" way. Next January, if something is still hanging backwards, it means we didn't wear it and off it goes for donation!

Perfect video! I have been working on my closet for a couple weeks. When you live in a climate with four seasons, that’s a lot of clothes and shoes. I figured out that the perfect solution for me would be if my husband would take his stuff out and give me the whole closet 😂

This is exactly what I needed today! I’ve been putting this off for years. I’ve lost 125 pounds the last 18 months. And I have slowly been taking the too large clothes out. But realistically, I have about 5 sizes of wardrobes in my closet. I purchased a bunch of my favorite t-shirts last night for spring and knew I needed to work on it to have somewhere to put them. Since most of my closet I don’t even wear. This gave me the motivation to get in there and get all those clothes out and just put the clothes back that fit my current body. Thanks for the motivation and beautiful organization.

One thing I have done to downsize my closet is I only put clothes for the current season in my closet and for the other seasons I put in a tub and put it in my garage. I have been able to keep my closet less cluttered. Its definitely a must do. Hope this helps too 🙂

I color and pattern code EVERYTHING. My closet is sorted in categories; Tie dye, plaids, patterned, etc.

You are one of the most relatable influencers on YT Liz. It’s refreshing, thank you.

I've used option 1 most of my adult life and I'm in my 60's. Its a great! I.also sometimes use 2 hangers, the seconds holds the bottom portion of the dress. This is great for dresses that wrinkle easier because you can stretch it out wider; it just depends on the dress.

[catche]

I do Option #1 and if it's especially bulky I hang the lower portion on a second hanger then hang that on the lower portion of the first hanger. Colour and item category coding is essential! I love the way my denim jackets look lined up in gradient order haha.

Hey Liz- I do a my longer dresses a different way. I use two hangers. Hang the dress normally through the neck. Then take a second hanger and scoop up the skirt of the dress over the hanger. Then hand the second hanger on the cross bar of the first hanger. It takes a litter more space, but I feel like I won't have to iron the dress this way

Home Goods is a National chain, part of the TJMaxx, Marshalls group! For jewelry I took a large piece of cardboard, thick is best! Then I covered it with a dark colored fabirc and nailed it to the wall that is behind my bedroom so that it isn't seen when the door is open. I live in a very small apt. and just don't have another wall such as one in the closet (in other words, don't have a walk in closet). Then I used push pins to hand jewelry on. It is so PERFECT to see every single piece of jewelry I have so that when I am choosing what I am going to wear, I just look at the one wall and pick out my accessories! It works great! Now I have one of those things to hang on the door for bracelets and watches since they are too big for push pins. It is the smartest idea I have had for jewelry display and instead of just using 25% of my jewelry I now use it all because I can SEE it all!!!

I have always organized my closet by 1.type of clothing (summer/winter), then 2. by color. So much easier to find exactly what I want.

[juliacockroft]

I have categorized my clothes for years. But, rather than sort the categories by color, I sort by style (long sleeved T-shirts, long sleeved dress tops, etc). Whatever the weather or occasion, I can look at that section and decide what I want to wear. Btw, we have At Home and Home Goods here in the Dayton, OH area.

Great ideas - my daughter came over and helped me do this to my closet the other day….well one of my clothes closets. One left to go 😬 Love option 1 for dresses - definitely going to do this to have some extra floor space!

[samanthab]

We have an at home in Omaha and council bluffs IA! Such a fun store. I organize my shirts by tees, long sleeves, tanks, sweaters.

[joanwalford]

Option 1 looks more pleasing and cleaner

Option 2 for folding maxi dress over hanger bottom… a pool noodle on the hanger prevents that crease from hanging on hanger.

[nicolepyne]

Option 1 on the dress hanging, definitely

[patmartin]

I find Option one works better for me. Love the target bins better than the wicker ones because they don’t click things in them and are also much easier to clean/wash out. I find things stored in bins are easier to manage and keep tidy.

Hey Liz, have been needing to clean out my small closet for awhile now. Thank you for the motivation and ideas for storage. Your closet looks wonderful. Our master bedroom closet is so small. I just have my clothes in there and my husband has his clothes in the guest room closet. Buying some dollar tree buckets and basket will really help out with some organization. All I need to do now is turn on some good 80’s tunes and get going.

[fayepeder]

Hey Liz, are you doing this in one day? You had a helper today. I like option 1 for the long dresses. Thank you for sharing with us your closet mess and how to organize it!
