Custom Closet Designs in Miami FL: Get Yourself Organized

Most people have trouble keeping their closets organized. Cluttered, stuffed, dusty and messy are words that most people will use to describe their closet when asked. I challenge you to get your closet organized, clean and manageable. The secret is to have a place for everything. You have to learn to make the most of useable space and categorize like items.

Try to create a balanced and visually appealing design. You're investing your time and money….so be sure you like the finished product. Determine how much of each clothing storage "type" you need (eg. hanging, folded, drawers). Some professional organizers recommend doing a detailed inventory….but who has the time. Just make a general estimate of what you use now, and note any deficiencies. For example: you have 10 feet of hanging space, but could use another 2 feet.

Now that you have an empty closet you can feel satisfied that you have de-cluttered your closet and de-cluttered your life as well. However, simply putting your clothes and belongings back into the closet does not complete the job. You need to put the final changes to maintain the organization that you have created.

Locate drawers at the center of your closet design, directly across from the door so they are the first thing you see when entering the closet. Drawers make a good visual focal point and typically need the extra clearance provided by the central location. If you're designing a large closet, include an island in the center of the space that incorporates your drawers.

Many people have all different types of hangers; go out and purchase matching hangers for all your clothes; it will create a much nicer appearance of your hanging clothes. In addition, it allows all clothes to hang at the same level and nothing will be hanging below other clothes and thus maybe even becoming lost in your closet. These are simple closet solutions to revamp your closet.

Leave a little space at the bottom of the closet for your shoes. Shoe racks can keep shoes organized and prevent you from creating a shoe mountain at the bottom of your closet. You can purchase cedar chips or just place a container of baking soda open somewhere near your shoes to control odor and keep your clothes from smelling like your shoes.

Plan sufficient space for your shoes. If you have an average number of shoes you may be able to place them under the hanging clothes sections. Otherwise, you should plan a full closet section for shoe storage. Shoe shelves should be a minimum of 2 feet wide to accomodate two pairs sitting tandem. Wider shelves should increase by increments of 12 inches (or approximately one pair of shoes).

Make a space for your dirty laundry hamper. Keep in mind that you must tote that full hamper to your laundry room. Retractable hampers that slide on runners is an ideal system for most closets. I hope these tips are helpful and good luck designing your custom closet.
