Don’t want the clothespins directly on the wall? Check out this clothespin scarf holder. Use reclaimed wood and wood glue, then hang it on your closet door. Here it holds scarves, but it could easily organize any number of clothing items. // Clothespin Scarf Holder // Sally Ann
These clever slide out organizers make use of drawer pulls in a new way. Mounting towel bars, ikea rails or other mountable rods to MDF cut to the desired size creates a scarf organizer in it’s own right. But by attaching it to drawer pulls on your closet walls, you take it up a notch! Tuck it nicely and discreetly out of the way, pull it out when you need it. Perfect! // Slide Out Scarf Organizer // View Along The Way
Here’s an organization solution that’s easy to do, easy on the wallet AND easy to place, since it doesn’t take up much room. You’ll need a towel bar and a spot to attach it, either to the wall or the inside of your closet door. Then clip shower curtain rings around it and slide one belt on each ring – you’ll never have to hunt through your belts, or take all of your belts off the same hook to get to the one at the bottom! // Budget Belt Organization // Vintage Zest
For this shoe storage, all you need is a nook between two close walls – either inside your closet off to the side or in a corner of your room. Hang tension rods every foot or so down the wall and place your heels over the tension rods. Instant storage, plus your shoes will look cute too! // Tension Rod Shoe Hanger // A Loyal Love
Women’s dress shoes can be a pain to organize because the heels often get caught and tangled up, and they don’t always stand up nicely. If you’ve got a spot in your room or closet, use an Ikea shelf to organize your shoes according to height, style and color. Don’t have an Ikea near you? There are lots of affordable options for adjustable shelves at Target or Walmart. // Shoe Shelf // With Love, Veronique
This is a pretty incredible organizer for the guy in your life. There’s a spot for everything he needs – all right there at his fingertips – and all you need to do it is a frame and a peg board! There are even small baskets for cologne and dress socks. If he could use a little help organizing his necessities, this is an inexpensive and thorough way to go. // Framed Organizer for Him // Lookie What I Did
All you need is a cardboard box and about a yard and a half of fabric to create a unique, customized sweater box to store and organize your cold weather staples. These sweater boxes are the perfect shape and size to accommodate bulky clothing, and allow you to see items on the bottom of the stack. // Sweater Boxes // I heart Organizing
Not sure how to organize bulky items that take up a lot of room? Roll them up and place them in a hanging cubby (which is usually for shoes). You can use this method for anything from sweaters to jeans to jackets. // Sweater Organizer from Hanging Shoe Cubby // Ask Anna
Hanging cubbies are great for tons of things! Here’s an idea for organizing your morning routine as well as your closet – use one cubby for each day and set out the weeks clothing in advance. If you find that your cubbies sag with the weight of clothing, cut cardboard to fit, cover with pretty paper and place in the bottom of each one as shown in the tutorial. // Daily Clothing Hanging Cubby // Delineate Your Dwelling
A closet with no lighting wired in is pretty impractical. It’s hard to be organized when you can’t even see! For this brilliant lighting solution, all you need are seasonal rope lights with a remote. Hang them around the inside of the closet doorway (or even under shelves for an “under cabinet” lighting effect). No need to do electrical work to make that dark closet shine! // Lighting Hack // Reality Daydreams
If you’ve got a bedroom minus a closet, or you simply need to create more closet space than you already have, you can DIY a great looking wardrobe out of mismatched furniture! Wardrobes are super pricey furniture pieces, but with this tutorial you’ll be looking at cabinets, dressers and shelves in a whole new light. // DIY Wardrobe Hack // Remodelaholic
Here’s a tiny closet done right. Moving all the storage to the unused and almost unattainable sides (that are hidden away behind the walls) frees up the entire middle of the closet, giving it a walk-in closet feeling. The new design allowed for shelves from floor to ceiling on one side and two rods for hanging clothes on the other – while still saving enough room for a hamper and mirror! The overall feeling is much more spacious and organization friendly. // Closet Makeover // Always Never Done
