Add lighting
If every time you look into your closet it’s like staring into the abyss, here’s how to solve your problem: Light it up! More light in the closet is fantastic for optimizing closet space and will make it seem more grand.
One option is to swap out your regular rod for a motion-activated and battery-operated LED closet rod.
For a more accessible and more economical fix, purchase a pack of puck lights, which you can simply stick onto walls or any other surfaces.
Even better, get a few that have a remote control, timer, and dimmer feature, so you’ll never get lost in the dark again!
Use storage space on the closet door
Closet door shoe racks are the best storage space option for optimizing closet space. But these genius little solutions aren’t just for shoes anymore. They offer a very functional way of storing all kinds of accessories and clothing items.
Over-the-door organizers can hold accessories, scarves, jewelry, hats, undergarments, small handbags, and even wallets. Your closet door is the perfect place to store the things you wear the most.
For instance, if you’re a scarf-wearer, tuck your most worn scarves in the shoe rack pockets that are at eye level. Swap gloves, scarves, and tights for tank tops when summer rolls around.
And don’t forget about all that prime real estate OUTSIDE your closet door. You can add some decorative removable Command hooks from which you can hang bags and other grab-and-go items neatly.
