Today it took 20 minutes to look for a skirt, yesterday it was possible to find the pantyhose only from the third attempt, and the spring boots, which were so needed on the first day of spring, were up to indecently erased heels. This means that it's time to ask yourself the question: how to put things in a closet and finally put it in order? To do this, it will be necessary to sort things out, approve candidates "for departure", wash dirty clothes, repair malfunctions and compactly arrange everything on shelves, drawers and hangers. So, let's begin.
Sorting
Before starting the analysis of clothes, it must be pulled out of the cabinet and folded on the floor in a large heap. Sex, of course, must first be washed. You can also lay it with an old clean sheet. Now it is necessary to sort the clothes, dividing it into several groups.
- Children's - adult .The first thing to do is to separate the children's clothing from an adult and fold it into two piles. Further to each of the handicaps, the selection principles described below should be applied.
- It is necessary - do not need .Take in the hands of another piece of clothing and answer the question: do you need it or not. Is the thing constantly worn or has it been left idle for a long time, because it has become small( great), out of fashion, etc. Everything that is actively worn should be put together, what only takes place in the closet - in another.
- Season - not the season .If this thing does not match the season of socks, it must be sent for storage, having previously estimated its purity and possible damage, which must be eliminated( sew, change the zipper, sew a button, etc.).Non-seasonal items are usually stored on distant shelves, shelves or in mezzanines waiting for their turn. Thus, they will not interfere with the search for a particular thing that is needed at a given time of the year.
- Clean - dirty .In each heap, carry out a revision to the purity. Dirty things go to the laundry basket, the clean ones will be sorted further.
- Small - large .Organizing the storage of things should be relative to their size. Namely: small things like socks, leggings, pantyhose, panties, stockings, t-shirts, belts, it is convenient to store in the drawer of the chest of drawers, and not on the shelf in the closet.
- Fold - hang .Some garments easily crinkle, and for this reason they should be placed on a rack in the closet, and not on shelves. This type of things include jackets, pants, skirts, dresses, shirts and others. And the jeans, cotton t-shirts and sweat shirts, sweatshirts and knitted pullovers will be comfortable on the shelves, etc.
Every thing has its place
To properly organize the clothes storage system, you need to think over a specific place suitable for this or that thing.
Typically, the apartment has 4 types of cabinets:
- wardrobe for outdoor clothing;
- wardrobe;
- chest of drawers;
- compartment with shelves for storage of non-fading everyday clothes.
In each of them it is necessary to restore order.
Tip
Set the order without fanaticism. Every thing should be where it can easily be found. Ideally logical for the mistress of the arrangement of things can be uncomfortable for other family members. As a result, clothes will not fall on the places indicated to it, which again leads to confusion.
In the outerwear closet, store winter and demi seasonal clothes, hats, scarves, gloves and shoes correctly, if such a compartment is provided for. In order for order to reign, it is necessary that every thing be clean, repaired and hung on its hanger. If a jacket, coat or fur coat was handed over to dry cleaning, you should remove the product from a cellophane bag, in which it is usually returned. If you want to cover the outer clothing during storage, it is worth using an old white pillowcase or a cotton bag - for example, these are sold for fur coats. Do not forget about the moth remedy, which must be placed in the closet, depending on its area( the exact information is indicated on the package).
The order in the wardrobe begins with the selection of convenient hangers in the required quantity. If there are a lot of clothes and the place in it is worth its weight in gold, you need to think about using storage systems. One of the most famous and available systems consists of a bar attached to the hooks on the bar. It has holes for the hangers, allowing them to be placed in a row of up to five pieces. The system can be arranged horizontally or vertically. Vertical arrangement allows you to compactly place 5 hangers cascade on each other in a place on which without the use of a system would fit only one hanger. However, there is also folk savvy, which also offers to store clothes cascaded, but using keys from aluminum cans.
The chest of drawers is a very handy piece of cabinet furniture that allows you to store "small" wardrobe items, such as socks, tights, underwear. The use of a chest allows keeping order in other cabinets, not "contaminating" them with small things. As a rule, chest drawers are wide. In order to bring order to them, you can use document dividers or low cardboard boxes. Thus, on a vast shelf, cells will be created, into which it will be convenient to lay things out, and they will not be intertwined with each other. If the mistress and her household like the scented underwear, you can put in the drawer of the chest of the sachet or use the folk cunning - put in a piece of nice-smelling soap.
In the wardrobes or in the walls there is a separate section for storing everyday clothes. It should be folded jeans, T-shirts, turtlenecks, sweaters - in general, what is worn every day( depending on the season).You can sort things by sight( jeans for jeans, T-shirts for T-shirts), by color or sets for socks. This arrangement will create an order in the cabinet and will facilitate the search for the desired wardrobe item.
If the subject of the wardrobe falls into the category of unnecessary, it is necessary to look for a temporary place for it. Do not clutter the apartment with things that you can put on "at the dacha, at the subbotnik, at the potatoes or when I lose weight."It's better to honestly admit yourself: such a time will never come, and the abundance of unused things will disrupt the order in the house. Although losing weight is quite possible, that's just the fashion is now so changeable that putting things on the shelf and waiting for the onset of a high point is very reckless. Today, there are a huge number of Internet sites for the submission of ads on the sale of clothing. Also, it can be given for nothing or for pennies in the relevant Internet communities to those who really need it "here and now."
In conclusion, we note that to put things in order in the closet is a long and laborious matter. The procedure may take a day or two, but it's worth it. Things brought to order, not only will help save time in their search, but also improve well-being and mood. And this is not surprising: order always causes only positive emotions and attracts good luck.
