How Should I Organize my Closet?
A good layout for a closet is having everything color coded and separated by type. This will make it easier to find exactly what you are looking for quickly. As a general rule, the lighter the item in both color and weight, the closer it should be to the front of the closet.
The heavier and darker the item, the further back in the closet it should be. The process of creating an organized closet begins with taking an inventory of what you have. Remove all the clothes out of the closet and place them in piles. Jackets, tee shirts, sweaters, dress shirts, dress pants, jeans, dresses, and skirts should be separated by type, size, and color. This will make organizing the closet much faster.
First, take the darkest, heaviest jackets and sweaters and hang them on the lowest shelf in the closet near the back. Then, take the lightest tee shirts and skirts and put them on the lowest shelf near the front of the closet. Next, the darkest, heaviest jeans should be placed on the highest shelf in the back of the closet. Follow this, by putting the lightest dresses and dress pants near the front of the closet on the highest shelf. You should continue putting your clothes back in the closet from heaviest to lightest and lightest to darkest until all the clothes are organized.
After you are finished with the clothes, your shoes can be organized in a similar fashion. Take the biggest, darkest shoes and place them near the back of your closet. Then take the lightest, smallest shoes and place them near the front of the closet. Keep organizing the shoes until they are all in order. Once you are finished, take a look at the closet as a whole. You will soon realize how much this one step will make your life a bit simpler.
