Designing Your Dream Closet

Your bedroom closet is a valuable space where you can store clothing, accessories, and shoes. However, a disorganized closet can feel overwhelming and greatly increase the time it takes for you to get ready in the morning. Designing and implementing your dream closet is easier than you think—check out the tips below to find out how you can transform your apartment’s closets into organized and appealing spaces.

Assess Your Needs

The key to developing your personalized dream closet is to first assess your needs. Your closet should fit your wardrobe preferences, rather than forcing you to make your wardrobe fit into a space that isn’t right. Do you prefer to hang or fold your clothes? Are your shoes a significant portion of your wardrobe, or do you only have a few pairs you wear regularly? Once you’ve determined the type of space you need most—shelving, closet rods, or shoe and accessory organization—you can begin building the closet of your dreams. If you prefer to hang your clothes, closet doublers provide a second rod to accommodate more hangers. Wall-mounted hooks can also create a place for you to put together outfits ahead of time to make getting dressed easier and more convenient. If you need extra shelving, hanging organizers and baskets can create the space you need to store clothes in your preferred method. Shoe storage options are available in a variety of styles, including floor-based, hanging, and over-the-door solutions. Alternatively, you can use a few tension rods to create your own perfectly-sized shoe rack.

Opt for Convenience

With a full-size washer and dryer right in your apartment, laundry day is already convenient. You can further improve your laundry experience by purchasing a rolling laundry organizer to separate lights, darks, and delicate items as you wear them, rather than all at once before you wash each load. Having your laundry on wheels makes getting dirty clothes to your washer faster and easier—you might even start looking forward to laundry day! Other ways to make your closet more convenient include placing bookshelves or a small table just inside the door. This provides a place where you can organize and lay out accessories, keeping them close to your clothes so everything is in one space. Hanging a mirror either in or near your closet lets you evaluate your wardrobe choices immediately, rather than going back and forth to another area of your apartment. If you use baskets, bins, or drawers in your closet, create fresh, fun labels for them—not only will your closet look more appealing, you also won’t have to spend time searching for socks, undergarments, camisoles, and other loose items.
