Comments on: How to Conquer Your Closets

on 9/15/2007 You have some really good ideas listed in this article. Thanks for sharing them with us!

on 7/15/2006 At Home Depot, I purchased two metal pipes to fit the width of my closet. Using metal rod holders, I placed one rod in the top half of my closet and one in the bottom half. My shirts, blouses and T-shirts hang on top, and pants and skirts hang on the bottom. Since I don't have a lot of dresses, I hang them over a hanger and put them on the top rung. I still have room on the bottom for medium sized plastic bins to store various items. I even hang my bras in my closet, so I can rotate them. I love the closets. Happy organizing.

on 2/8/2006 Once a year, hang all your clothes backward on the rods - with the hanger hooked from the back to the front, open side facing out. Make a note of what day you do this. After you wear something, hang it back up the other way. When one year has passed, anything you haven't worn during the year will still be hanging the wrong way. You will know what to consider purging. For items that are folded rather than hung, place them upside down or backward.
