Proper storage of clothes and accessories in the wardrobe is essential to ensure a pleasant and stress-free experience in our daily lives, filling the home with well-being. Lack of organisation in the wardrobe can lead to stress, worsening skills such as concentration. In addition, it can waste time and money by purchasing unnecessary items or replacing parts that are in the cabinet but cannot be found. For these reasons, at Residencial Altavista we would like to reveal 10 secrets to effectively organise your wardrobe and keep it tidy at all times.

1. Do a deep clean

 Before you start organising your wardrobe, do a thorough cleaning. Take out everything inside, clean the shelves, drawers and rails, and separate the clothes you no longer need. Donate what is still in good condition and discard what is broken or in poor condition.

2. Create categories

Divide your clothes into categories such as shirts, trousers, dresses, etc. This will allow you to find your clothes more easily and keep them in order. In addition, you will be able to better visualise what clothes you have and what you are missing.

3. Sort by colour

Once you have separated your clothes into categories, sort them by colour. This will give you a clearer picture of your options and allow you to create colour combinations that you had not considered before.

4. Use quality hangers

Quality hangers are essential to keep your clothes in good condition. Wooden hangers are ideal for heavy garments, while velvet hangers are perfect for light and delicate garments. Make sure hangers are the right size for your garments, as hangers that are too big or too small can damage clothes.

5. Use boxes and drawer organisers

Boxes and drawer organisers will help you keep your smaller items organised and separate. Use boxes to store your shoes and accessories, and drawer organisers to store your socks, underwear and sportswear.

6. Store out-of-season clothes

Store out-of-season clothes elsewhere, such as in boxes under the bed or in a cupboard in another room. This will allow you to have more space for the clothes you wear most often and prevent your wardrobe from filling up with clothes you won’t wear for several months.

7. Go for LED lights

If your wardrobe has no natural light, use LED lights to illuminate it. LED lights are inexpensive and easy to install, and will give you a better view of your clothes and accessories, as well as giving your wardrobe a much more interesting look.

8. Invest in an organisational system

Consider investing in an organisational system for your wardrobe. A system of this type will allow you to make the most of the available space and keep everything tidy and accessible.

9. Make a list of things you need for your wardrobe

Before you go shopping, make a list of what you need and what you would like to have. This will allow you to focus on what you really need and avoid buying things you won’t use.

10. Keep order

The last secret to organising your wardrobe is to keep it tidy. Once you’ve organised your wardrobe, make sure you keep it that way. Take a few minutes each week to reorganise your clothes, get rid of what you no longer need and make room for new acquisitions.

Organising your wardrobe may seem like a superfluous task, but order in our home translates into well-being and happiness for the people who live in it. If you have an open wardrobe, it’s all the more reason to apply these 10 secrets to keep all your clothes tidy and clean.
