I had our closets custom made a year ago to make our morning routine a lot easier and it makes a big difference. Before redoing them it used to take me forever to decide what to wear and I think it was because I couldn’t see all the pieces of clothes I had. Recently I paid a visit to TJ Max and came across these very thin velvet hangers called Closet Complete a lot more affordable than other similar ones and got a bunch to replace my original wooden ones. With the wooden hangers some lightweight blouses would slip off but now these velvet-covered ones hold them so well and the best part is that because they take a lot less space it gives me more room. You can see the difference in the two pictures of how much space is empty now that I switched the hangers; how to make more space in your closet.  What girl doesn’t need that?  A simple action as changing hangers can make big difference on how you start about your day.  The only negative thing bout having more space in your closet is that you may want to buy more clothes

In our previous home a few of my clothes got molded and two of my bags with the leather all cracked up and peeled off.  All consequences of closet-enemy-number-one, humidity.  Not too nice.   This whole unfortunate experience made me think that yes, walking closets are very convenient and beautiful but as is any area of interior design the most important part of a closet is the planning.  Good insulation, proper ventilation, enough room between clothes and last but not least lighting!  It is a good thing to think about if you are currently building or remodeling your home.  Enjoy!
