At Boston Wardrobes, we love to make your mornings easier and more enjoyable by giving you beautiful and well-organised wardrobe storage. When your clothes are organised and easily accessible, you save time looking for things and avoid the frustration of not being able to find the items you want. Effective wardrobe storage will also extend the life of your clothes by protecting them and keeping them looking good.
Start with what you have
Clear it out!
The best way to get the most out of your wardrobe storage is to do a regular clear-out. This ensures space isn’t being taken up by clothing that isn’t being worn, giving your clothes more room (leading to better organisation), and making space for any new season finds.
Categorise
Group your clothing by category so that you can store like with like. Tops, jumpers, pants, gym clothes, should all have their own shelf or drawer inside your wardrobe. Grouping hanging items together also helps to keep everything organised; shirts, blouses, skirts and jackets should be hanging in groups together.
Keep it in sight
Out of sight, out of mind! Remember that if you can’t see an item, you are more likely to forget about it. Keeping everything within eye sight will not only make it easier to find things, but it will ensure you are getting more wear out of your whole wardrobe.
In-season wardrobe storage
Consider storing clothing away seasonally. Taking your heavy winter coats, jumpers and jackets out of your wardrobe when they are not in use will free up storage space for the clothes you are wearing right now. The more space you have in your wardrobe, the easier it will be to find what you need!
Useful additions to your wardrobe storage space:
Drawer dividers are an inexpensive way to help keep smaller items such as underwear, bras and socks organised and easier to access.
Choose slimline clothes hangers to maximise hanging space in your wardrobe. Wooden and velvet are the best for your clothes.
Hooks can be added for storing scarves, belts and bags. At Boston wardrobes we also have a range of wardrobe accessories that address these items specifically, making them even easier to store.
Shoes can be better stored on a shoe shelf. Choose from one of the multiple shoe options at Boston Wardrobes for the most beautiful shoe storage available. Pro tip: fit more shoes on a shelf by placing each pair with one shoe facing in and one facing out.
Vertical space in your wardrobe
Does your current wardrobe storage space only have a hanger bar? Many houses in New Zealand were built with minimal regard for wardrobe storage. The standard in most older houses is the basic shelf and rail. You can better utilise the vertical space by adding hanging organisers and raising shelves.
A professional wardrobe storage solution
When you need a wardrobe storage solution that efficiently and beautifully meets all of your unique needs, it’s time to think about a professional approach. Talking to a wardrobe designer will help you identify the gaps in your current wardrobe storage, and together you can get to a bespoke wardrobe design that ticks all of the boxes.
