Double Your Closet, Trouble Be Gone!

If there is one thing you can spend on money to actually increase not only the capacity of your closet and the usability of it? Double Hang. And seriously if you have a $100 bucks and a drill, go for it. Use the vertical space! Most closets have room for at least two layers and one shelf above for sweaters. Rubbermaid is at Walmart, Lowes, and Home Depot.

But if you have the money, yes, even you Funs and Classics, the best value is The Container Store’s Elfa products. Why? Because they have one of the best retail return policies in the biz, you can go fancy with wooden fronts or budget with metal, and they’ll re-cut products you’ve owned for years if you move or decide you need to change your configuration. Never, we repeat, never throw away your Elfa stuff. It can always be reused and this is a completely impractical Organic Freedom talking! I actually found the frame for an Elfa drawer system on the street and took it. $100 bucks lying on the street!! Seriously. I felt very thrifty and FUN.

If you do nothing else to organize your closet, this will do it for you.
