Closet Organizing – Sorting & Organizing Your Clothes

How many times have you said, “my closet just isn’t big enough”? Well the truth of the matter is, your closet is probably large enough, you simply have too much stuff! I’ve worked in a few hundred closets, and I find people use the wrong accessories to store their clothes, and don’t take the time to fold or hang items. Instead, they shove the clothes on shelves and expect their clothes to not be damage, wrinkle free, and they expect to find a ready to wear outfit in a timely manner.

In this fifth video of my “how to organize your closet like a pro” series, I’ll demonstrate the steps you can follow to sort your clothes. I also talk about the proper types of hangers to use, and how to avoid some common mistakes people make in their closets. Watching this video may just save your favorite outfit from damage!

I’ve previously posted five videos in this series. To view the other posts, please visit the links below. If you have any clothes storage tips you’d like to share, please comment below.

    Hi Scott!

    One thing I have not heard yet is where is the client? I haven’t seen every video and heard every word… are you organizing an actual client? Where are they during the decision making process? I am just curious. You are doing an excellent job and the quality of your information is really wonderful.

    I sure do enjoy all of your information. The statistic that people wear 20% of their clothes 80% of the time is so true. This is similar to one of the closet organizing tips I found at http://www.organizeyourclosetnow.com is to have trash bags ready. You will be surprised when you organize your closet how many things you saved that must go to donations or trash.
