It’s that time of year again. Things are starting to get crowded in your Closet as your spring and summer clothes start to mix with the heavy winter clothes you still occasionally need to pull out and wear. All this wardrobe chaos shows its time for a nice spring clean.
Spring cleaning isn’t just for the dark, dirty and hidden spaces in your house; your wardrobe also needs a serious going-over at least once a year, and the changing of the seasons in the spring is simply the best time to do it. You probably will already spend a few hours packing scarves, gloves, and sweaters into temporary storage, so why not use a little extra time to free up some extra space and money in your wardrobe?
Step 1: Set It All Out - Start By Getting Everything in Your Closet Out Where You Can See It
Open your closet doors and drawers, and get everything out where you can see. That means pulling out the contents of drawers, stacked piles, any clothes hanging out of sight in your closet, and anything that may have slipped into dark corners.
Step 2: Separate it all - Sort Every Item into Keep, Mend/Clean, Discard, and Donate Piles
Begin by sorting your clothes, section by section, into three piles. The clothes you want to keep should remain in your closet, but the other 3 piles should be Clean, Discard, and Donate.
Step 3: Rearrange Your Closet to Put Current Season Clothes Front and Center
Place off-season clothes appropriately, in garment bags or other storage, on high shelves or in other closets, so that they don’t take space away from your day-to-day wardrobe.
Happy Spring Cleaning!
