35 Clever Closet Hacks You’ll Love

Tank Top Hanger LDC

A tie hanger?  Sure you could hang ties on it.  OR you could use it to corral your tank top collection.  Folding and stacking those tops takes up valuable real estate on the shelves (and time!).  With a tie hanger, you can easily see each top and grab what you need without messing up the whole shebang.  //  Tank Top Holder  //  Life. Design. And the Pursuit of Craftiness.

Apparently, those of us who fold our brassieres are doing it all wrong… bras are intended to be hung as you would a shirt, to keep their form.  But who has room for that in their closet??  Enter, the hanging bra organizer – or a multitude of hangers all hung neatly in a vertical line.  All you need are wooden hangers and eye screws!  Since you only need about a 2 inch drop between hangers, you could connect anywhere from 5-10 hangers together, depending on how high your rod or hook is placed.  Get those bras out of the drawer and free up some room!  //  Hanging Bra Organizer  //  Artsy Architette

Use a cute hanger to store your sunglasses.  Just hang them over the crossbar so you can easily see each pair, and grab what you need on your way out the door.  //  Sunglasses Organization  //  Love u Madly

While you normally find these tiered hanging baskets corralling fruit in the kitchen, they are super useful in a closet as well.  Keep your accessories in one spot, within easy reach without using up valuable shelf or drawer space.  //  Tiered Basket  //  Greg Marino from Studio D for Redbook

If you’ve got wire shelves in your closet, this hack is a must!  Find baskets with holes, handles or a large weave and hang them from the underside of the shelf with metal S hooks.  Square baskets with chalkboard labels would be perfect!  This is the perfect spot for socks, undergarments, belts, scarves and other small items.  This tutorial uses them for storage in a pantry, but there’s no end to the applications!  //  S Hooks and Baskets  //  Do It On a Dime (YouTube Video Tutorial)

Here’s another idea for under shelf baskets that will work for wooden shelves instead of wire.  Instead of S hooks, use hook screws and screw them right into the underside of the shelf!  Hang some small plastic crates (similar to these) and toss in all the miscellaneous odds and ends one stores in clothes closets – belts, tights, socks, handkerchiefs, scarves, headbands… well, you get the idea.  //  Hanging Crates  //  Reality Daydream

Baskets of all shapes and sizes are crucial for organization.  Here, slim and stylish wire baskets are hung directly on the back of the closet door to store cold weather essentials.  Even a small, packed closet has a bit of door space available to hang skinny baskets.  //  Back of Door Baskets  //  The Baloney Bug

Clutch Holder Close Up

These awesome clutch holders make use of neglected wall space.  They’re made from clear plexiglass so you can see exactly what each one is holding, and your purses double as wall art.  Plus, they are super modern and cute!  //  DIY Clutch Holder  //  Polished Habitat

Or, if you’re unsure of your plexiglass-building abilities, get a lid rack. These are found in kitchenware departments and are meant to contain lids for pots and pans, but slide it onto a closet shelf and slip your clutches and wallets in and you’ve got a handy fix for messy purse storage.  //  Clutch Holder  // Fabulous Fashions for Sensible Style

Wall racks with hooks are super useful, but what if you haven’t got enough wall space for the amount of hooks you need?  The solution in this case?  Attach them to a hanger – one on each side – with zip ties!  It’s a nonpermanent solution that can come apart when needed, and can easily hang a number of scarves, belts, small bags or even necklaces.  //  Scarf Hanger  //  Dollar Store Crafts

Tension rods are very handy in a closet!  You can hang them in the same fashion as you would for shoe storage – in a nook or to the side of your closet, then loop scarves around the rods.  The plus side to this is that they actually look colorful and artistic, so if they’re in your room instead of your closet it can double as free decor!  (And that frees up some closet space, too!)  //  Scarf Rods  //  Tara Bellucci for Apartment Therapy

When it comes to hanging clothes up, what could be smarter than clothespins?  That’s what they’re for right?  Well, they can also organize your closet if you get smart and attach them directly to the wall with some removable but hefty adhesive.  Just line them up vertically and you’ve got a spot for tutus, scarves, necklaces, caps, or any other hangable, clip-able collection.  //  Tutu Hanger  //  Reality Daydream

    My favorite was the no slip hangers! Who knew pipe cleaners could be so useful!
