Time for wardrobe changes
This is the perfect time of year for deep cleaning your closets. Labor Day weekend is the official end of summer vacation and we know that cooler weather will soon be on its way. This means that it is time to pack up the Shorts, sundresses, and sandals and get out fall and winter clothing. If you are like most people, your closet not only needs to make room for the seasonal clothing change, you also need to reorganize and deep clean it. Remember, winter clothing is bulky by nature, and your closet needs to be organized for easy scanning to select the most appropriate clothing choices.
If you are one of the many people whose closet is not so neatly organized, we want to offer you some timely tips that will allow you to deep clean your closet without making it a completely overwhelming task. Consider the following systematic tips:
- Completely empty the closet
One of the first mistakes that people make is trying to combine the existing disorganization with the newly organized. It is important that you begin your deep cleaning with a completely empty closet.
- Clean it
Even if the door is closed most of the time, your closet has months of dust and dirt on the walls and the floor. Wipe down the walls, vacuum the floor and get rid of cobwebs.
- Sort and pack up summer clothes
During this process, you want to take the worn out garments, or clothes that do not fit; and sort them for donation or the garbage. If you have clothes that have been hanging in the closet with the tag still on them, do the right thing and set them aside for donation.
- Try questionable winter clothing on before putting it in your closet
Remember, we are deep cleaning and organizing. Why put something in the closet if there is no chance of you wearing it. They would be just taking up space.
- Organize your winter clothing by type and color
Now hang your fall and winter clothing according to type and color. Hang all the coats together, sweaters together, shirts, pants, etc. Arrange each group from dark to light colors, or however you prefer.
Our closets never lie. If your closet is cluttered, crammed, and disorganized, you can be sure that there are usually ill fitting and out of style clothes in the mix. A clean and organized closet makes it easy and even fun to pick out your fall and winter wardrobe.
