Closets can be intimidating. There are many people that will sit and look at their closet and have no idea where to start. Is that you?
Or maybe you say that you have no room for everything you own. Did you know that about 80% of the clutter in your home is a result of disorganization, not lack of space? Read on for some simple ideas to start making a dent in that valuable space -- your closet.
Look at the tools you are using to hang your clothing. Sometimes the closet structure is the problem (and if so a good closet organizing system can really make a difference) but often the tools used are wrong. What tools? Why the hanger of course!
Choosing the right hanger for the items you own can make a huge difference in how organized your closet is as well as how much it can hold. Take a look at the before and after shots below to see how changing hangers made a difference in this closet.

As you can see in these before and after shots, all we did was change the hanger! By choosing a hanger that did not allow the clothing to slip, all of the clothes stay where they belong. In addition, the hanger was slim in design, so we were able to fit twice as many items in the same space without crumpling any of the clothes.
In this example, we used "Huggable Hangers" from the HomeFocus catalog.
