Storage solutions have always been a problem for me. I tried to organize my closets. I tried to keep my closets tidied but I generally failed as I simply had too much stuff.
I did not have to look to far for help. It seems that over night the closet organization industry has blossomed. I did not even know it was an industry until I started looking for help. These pro closet organizers come with a price tag so I decided to do some bargain basement research into my problem. I started to peer inquisitively into the closets of friends and strangers alike.
Although, I feared organizational failure I feel pretty successful in my venture. I now have organized closets. My big eureka moment came when I noticed that my most career-wise successful friends had extremely well organized closets. This was a con-incidence they told me. They said they simply did not have time to deal with any disorganization in their lives. It made sense.
I started to copy the ideas of my friends. The first closet I tackled with my front hall closet. This closet was my Achilles heel but was also the closet I used the most. I started with a shoe rack and some clear plastic bins that I placed side by side on the top shelf. With these small additions my closet seemed infinitely more organized. I organized the contents of the bins between hats and scarves, sporting gear, and slippers. What a difference.
Fortified by my first closet organizing experience I made a list of the other closets in my home and ranked them in order of their disorder. In turn, I tackled each closet and made at least marginal improvements. Along the way I have found a hobby. I really like to read and write about storage solution tricks.
Even the best designed closet can not accommodate too much. BE honest about what you really need and use. Really make an effort to purge your closets. Accept the fact that the mitten you lost in 1988 is never going to be reunited with it’s mate. You do not need a special closet organizational consultant. Start with baby steps. Experiment a lot. There are dozens of cheap storage solutions out there waiting to make your life easier.
