10 Steps to an Organized Closet<br />
By Kerrie L. Kelly, FASID<br />
Is it just me or do you process change by cleaning<br />
and organizing, too? A feeling of “everything in its<br />
place”—at work and at home—gives me a sense of<br />
general life order. And what better place to start<br />
organizing than your closet? Here are my top tips for<br />
making your closet clutter-free.<br />
1//Hire it Out<br />
There are many ways you can make changes in your<br />
closet areas. One of those ways is hiring help. If you’re<br />
not confident making changes yourself, then getting a<br />
professional to assist can be helpful. While Boomers are<br />
often reluctant to ask for support due to the financial<br />
cost or being unsure of whom to trust in the home, a<br />
professional (or a very organized grandchild) can provide<br />
just the needed closet jump-start.<br />
2//Start from Scratch<br />
Pulling everything (yes, everything!) out of your closet is<br />
the most effective way to get to the bottom of it. If you<br />
don’t, chances are, the same unworn clothes will end up<br />
staying in your closet.<br />
