Never again will you have to stress about arranging your closet. Our foolproof, step-by-step tutorial will teach you how to arrange your closet for good. If you're anything like us, you've undoubtedly decluttered and arranged your bedroom closet several times over the years, but it still looks like a bull ran through it every few months.

Maintaining an orderly closet will always be a process (since upgrading your wardrobe is a process), but there are several things you can do to ensure that you never spend more than 20 minutes organizing your clothing.

Follow these 18 simple steps to get your closet organized for good. It may take some time, but we guarantee it will be worthwhile.

1. Sort your clothing into categories.

Sifting through your clothes by kind is a quick and easy method to declutter. It's exhausting and impractical to pile all of your clothes into a huge fabric mountain on your bed.

Separate your clothing into categories such as pants, dresses, shirts, outerwear, accessories, and undergarments instead. Then, before going on to the next category, sort through each item in that category.

What makes this technique superior?Because it's much simpler to compare comparable outfits when they're all piled up in front of you, making it much easier to get rid of the items you know you have too many of or don't want. Make a decision to only keep the things you know you love and wear frequently as you sift through your belongings.

If anything causes you to pause, put it in a charity pile.This technique may seem simple, but it may make all the difference when you need to find your favorite grey alma mater sweater quickly.

Keep similar objects together. Keep all of your belts together, hang your sundresses next to each other, and keep your exercise clothes and jammies separate.

2. Clean and empty your closet.

Give your closet a once-over and pick out anything else still remaining within it once you've established distinct "donate" and "keep" piles for your clothing, shoes, and accessories.

When just a few stray safety pins remain, get in and give your closet a thorough cleaning. Vacuum the carpet, wipe down the shelves, and remove any scuff marks or debris off the walls using a stiff brush.

3. Create the closet of your dreams.

Obviously, within reason. Go for it if you have the time and money for a full-fledged Carrie Bradshaw closet makeover.

If you don't have one, get creative with what you have (and yes, you can arrange a closet without one). Take note of the greatest characteristics in your closet: Perhaps you have a lot of vertical storage, built-in shelves, or several hanging rods. Make the most of these opportunities.

Determine what you can do to improve the sections of your closet that aren't so fantastic — for example, your hard-to-reach higher shelves or a complete absence of shelving.

Plastic mobile dressers or a tiny armoire placed inside your open-plan closet could be beneficial. If you have too many shelves but not enough hanging space, consider removing a couple and replacing them with hooks on the walls.

The opportunities are limitless.

4. Display everything delicate, fancy, or substantial.

You might have enough space to hang every single T-shirt you possess, but if you don't, keep to the obvious items.

Dresses, skirts, and undergarments are examples of delicate goods, as are elegant things like suits, and robust, structural pieces like jackets and blazers.

Here's how to make your closet appear tidy and cheerful: Hang everything in the same way, with longer things on the left and shorter things on the right or vice versa, to produce an upward sloping line at the bottom of your garments.

5. Stack heavy items like jeans and sweatshirts on top of each other.

Stack heavy winter sweaters and stiff denim trousers to save valuable drawer and hanging space (in separate piles, of course). Because these products are robust and thick, they won't sag, wrinkle, or lose their form when stacked, making them ideal for your shelf space. Not only that, but you'll be able to clearly see each item in a stack, making it much easier to locate what you need.

6. Organize your clothes by color.

True, sorting your clothes by color might be time-consuming, but the end result will make choosing an outfit much easier, especially if you're a visual person.

There's no need to go insane trying to memories the exact order of the colors in the rainbow (although if you really want to be accurate, it's ROYGBIV). Even the simplest color differentiation can instantly make your wardrobe Pinterest-worthy and easy to browse.

7. Make use of unused wall space to display jewellery and accessories.

Do you have a few extra inches of wall space? Use this space to display accessories like as belts, jewellery, hats, and ties.

What's the best way to hang everything?

You may use a hanging jewellery organizer or towel hooks, or go for something more unique like a beautiful coat rack or a LEGO key holder.

9. Organize the contents of your drawers in the order in which you get dressed.

How much easier would your morning routine be if you didn't have to worry about where you put your clothing when you woke up?

The solution is straightforward.

If you have a dresser or a set of drawers that holds a lot of clothes, you should think about how you organize them. Store the items you put on first while getting dressed in the morning, such as underwear, in the top drawer. After that, go to the drawer below for jeans and the drawer below that for shirts.So simple.
