Yesterday morning, I tried to find my blue shorts, but couldn't find it anywhere, so I had to take everything out of my clothes drawers till I finally found my blue shorts crumpled between socks. If this sounds familiar, then you it's time to organize clothes drawers. When you organize clothes drawers, it makes everything so easy to find and saves you frustration and time!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Clothes
  • Drawers
  1. Step 1

    Take out all your clothes out of all the drawers.

  2. Step 2

    If they are not already folded, then you need to fold them before you can start to organize your clothes drawers.

  3. Step 3

    Organize the clothes by putting like things together (shorts together, underwear together, pants together, sweaters together, etc.).

  4. Step 4

    Set aside clothes that you want to hang, throw away, or donate, so you can get more room for your clothes drawers.

  5. Step 5

    Then finally, organize your clothes drawers. I suggest putting things you use the least often in the bottom clothes drawers, and the most used clothes in the top drawers. For instance, since it's summer, I organize my clothes drawers in this order (from bottom to top): sweaters, nice blouses & accessories, shorts & skirts, shirts & pants, and underwear. You'll notice that I combined some things like the shirts & pants in one drawer. You might end up having to do this if you don't have enough clothes drawer space.
