Before & After: Her Closet

Your bedroom closet should have one purpose and that is to store you clothing, shoes and accessories. This closet was also home to an entire bookshelf of schoolwork. With a spare bedroom closet available, we decided it was best to store the bookshelf there, freeing up an entire wall for shoe storage.

We first decluttered. Getting rid of 12 large garbage bags full of clothing! We not only decluttered the closet, but two large dressers as well.

This is just a sneak peek at the decluttering process. Creating piles for what stays and what goes was no small task, but necessary to ensure that only things that were going to be worn were kept.

Once we knew what was being kept we purchased a few items to maximize the space in the closet. We used slimline hangers to make the most of the hanging space we had available.

We used purse boxes for large purses and pull down linen shoes boxes for small clutches.

Because we had limited shelving space, we needed to create our own. These hanging cubbies were the perfect solution.

Lastly, the shoe wall. This Chrome Metal 10-Tier Rolling Shoe Rack fits up to 50 pairs of women’s shoes fit perfectly.
