Is getting your closet organized one of your new year’s resolutions? If so, check out these tips:

1. Declutter First: Start by removing items you no longer need or wear. Donate or discard what you haven’t used in a year.

2. Categorize Clothing: Group similar items together, such as shirts, pants, dresses, etc. This makes it easier to find things.

3. Use Slim Hangers: Slim hangers maximize space and create a uniform look. Consider non-slip hangers for items like camisoles.

4. Utilize Vertical Space: Install shelves or hanging organizers to make use of vertical space. This is great for shoes, bags, and folded clothes.

5. Color Coordination: Arrange clothing by color for a visually appealing and organized look. It also makes finding specific items faster.

6. Seasonal Rotation: Keep only the current season’s clothes accessible. Store off-season items in bins or vacuum-sealed bags.

7. Shoe Storage: Use shoe racks, clear boxes, or hanging organizers for shoes. This prevents clutter and makes pairs easy to find.

8. Drawer Dividers: Use dividers or organizers within drawers to keep smaller items like socks and accessories neatly separated.

9. Hooks and Over-the-Door Organizers: Install hooks for bags or accessories. Over-the-door organizers are handy for shoes or small items.

10. Label Containers: If using bins or boxes, label them. This ensures you can quickly identify what’s inside.

Regular maintenance is key. Take a few minutes each month to reevaluate and maintain the organization.
