Some Tips for Your Storage Problems

Drawers

• Use a cutlery tray to divide the inside of drawers in to sections - it will keep make up, toiletries and jewellery in order and cease them from rattling around when you open and close the drawers.
• Store folded t-shirts, vests and jumpers in bottom drawers as they are usually deeper. Keep individual stacks separate with plastic drawer dividers.
• Hang clothes more effectively. Group long hanging items such as coats and dresses together on section of the rail and shirts, skirts, trousers and shorter items on another section.
• Don't get in a tangle - keep socks, underclothing and belts separate by purchasing expandable drawer organisers that have a pocket for every item.

Hanging rails

• Permit depth for hangers by fitting your rail at least 30 cm from the back of the wardrobe. Think about replacing wooden rails with metal ones, as hangers glide along them more basically.
• Think about what you'll be storing and position the hanging rail accordingly. It will need to be positioned at least 110cm from the floor for longer items (or measure your longest item and add 5cm), or think about fitting double rails if your wardrobe consists chiefly of shorter items such as skirts and shirts - the higher rail will need to be positioned at least 90cm above the lower.

Shelving
Add shelves above the rail in ceiling-height wardrobes: for folded clothes and accessories you often use and above that for items you need less often, like spare duvets, ski wear or out-of-season clothes.

Floor space

• Store shoes at the bottom of the wardrobe on slanted shelves or racks - you'll fit more in in the event you alternate the shoes toe-in and toe-out.
• Keep shoes dust free by storing them in boxes in the event you have plenty of free floor space. Their original boxes (labelled, or with a picture of the shoes on the front for simple identification) will do, or buy clear boxes.

Doors
Use the backs of doors by fixing a rack for belts, scarves or ties. Hooks are handy, , but don't hang precious clothes as they can stretch out of shape.
