You know how clutter works. First it’s a sock or two, a T-shirt that didn’t make it to the drawer. And then before you know it, you’re stepping over your clothes from left to right just to cross your room. What a mess! To avoid this situation, don’t just clean — get organized with custom cabinets, bathroom storage units, and other tools.
Have you ever heard the phrase “band-aid for a gunshot wound”? That’s basically what cleaning is: a stopgap. You’re picking up your items, folding them, putting them in drawers, but without closet organization systems to keep you in check, you’ll eventually end up with the same mess on your hands. Getting organized allows you to break the cycle.
For example, suppose you take clothes out of your hamper to separate the light from the dark. It only has room for one load of laundry at a time, leaving a pile of dark (or light) items all over the floor. And then something good comes on TV, and your best friend calls you on the phone, and suddenly that second charge doesn’t seem so important. He just stays on the ground. For days.
Sounds familiar?
Fortunately, laundry problems are very easy to fix: all you need is a wicker laundry hamper with sorting capacity. A laundry sorter hamper will have separate compartments for light and dark clothing, allowing you to organize on the go rather than every once in a while when you decide to do the laundry. Some of these wicker laundry basket products even come with three or four compartments for other categories of clothing, such as delicates.
Speaking of clothes, let’s talk closets. The phrase “custom closets” may sound expensive, but it only describes the customization you can do yourself using closet organization systems. You can buy a system with various configurations of shelves, drawers, and hangers, and then move the different components around to fit your space perfectly. Whether you have a walk-in closet or a small cabinet, you’ll be able to find something to fit, as closet organizing systems come in all shapes and sizes.
To complement your closet organizing system, consider investing in some new closet hangers as well. You probably have a hodgepodge of cheap plastic hangers from clothing stores and bargain bins, but it’s possible to upgrade to closet hangers that will help keep your clothes wrinkle-free—might even help you fit more in your closet!
There is an important room that we cannot forget, and it is the bathroom. Like cabinet organizing systems, bathroom storage units can help prevent clutter by allocating a place for all your items. Some bathroom storage units are designed to store shampoo and body wash in the shower, while others can store your hair dryer or curling iron in a safe, dry place. Alternatively, people looking for a major storage upgrade should check out larger bathroom storage units like cabinets and shelves.
With all this talk about bathroom storage units and custom cabinets, I bet you’re already feeling more organized!
