Perfect Wardrobe: 10 Hacks for Storing Clothes and Shoes

Sometimes it's necessary or desirable to move away from traditional solutions for storing clothes and shoes. We share tips that will help you make the most of free space when organizing your wardrobe.

Shoes on Shelves

If your shoe boxes are full and won't fit in the closet, boldly place your favorite pairs on open shelves. Organize shoes by color or category.

Hangers: 3 Life Hacks

To prevent silk blouses from ending up at the bottom of your closet, try these simple tricks:

• If you wrap the shoulder straps with colorful threads, clothes won't slip off or stretch.
  
• A less noticeable option – polymer glue. Apply the glue to the edges of the hanger and let it dry.
  
• Finally, the fastest way – use rubber bands.
  

Clothing Rod

This is a familiar solution for many, but it can also be creatively used. Use metal towel racks, rods, or railings, or even a wooden branch imitation. You can hang a branch from the ceiling and attach other holders to the wall.

Racks and Grills

Those who own shoes with heels will love this idea: attach a metal frame to the wall and hook the heel onto the support.

Baskets Under the Bed and Vacuum Bags

Don't know where to store seasonal items? Woven baskets and boxes easily accommodate part of your wardrobe. Vacuum bags are the most practical storage solution for seasonal items. They can reduce the volume of clothes by up to three times and save a lot of space.

Clothes in Rolls

Instead of folding t-shirts in stacks, try rolling them into neat rolls. All t-shirts will be clearly visible, and you'll quickly find what you need.

Slide-Out Shelves

Replace the internal storage in a shoe box with slide-out shelves. This solution is quite laborious and requires time, but it will allow you to fit more shoes than before.

Space on Doors

Use all available space to the fullest, including closet doors. Hooks, metal rods, or wall shelves help keep your wardrobe organized.

Trouser Holder

A sliding trouser holder with individual hangers will protect your suits from accidental slipping or crushing.

Suspended Shelves

Even for a full closet, there's a solution – fabric shelves. Hanging shelves are perfect for organizing clothes or lightweight shoes with flat soles.
