5 5 Tips for a More Stylish Organized Closet: 1.
Save Space with Velvet Hangers Not only do no-slip velvet hangers keep clothes from falling off the hangers- they're so slim that they allow you to hang more in your closet (Win, Win!)
2.
Use Lucite Trays to Store Jewelry in Drawers: The best part about clear lucite trays & drawers for jewelry storage is that you can see where everything it is instead of hiding it away in a dark jewelry box (I'm partial to the monogrammed ones!)
3.
Utilize Bookcases for Shoe Displays: If you have the space- there's really no better way to organize and showcase a gorgeous collection of shoes than on bookcase shelves (Ikea has a great model for this!)
4.
Organize Your Clothes by Color: Not only does this make a colorful statement in your closet- it also helps you to more easily visualize what you already own and what "holes" there are in your closet.
5.
Store Small Items in Matching Boxes: Colorful boxes are great for storing smaller items in your closet- scarves, cold weather accessories, tights! Making sure the boxes or storage bins match, or coordinate, will make them feel more cohesive.
