Is your closet a hot mess? Maybe a little disorganized and cluttered?

Well, today we will go over some tips, tricks and hacks.

The first thing I'm going to do is remove everything from my closet, so I can start with a clean slate. I'm going to remove all the shoes, coats, and everything on the shelves completely. Once everything is out you can see how much clutter and mess was sitting inside that closet, but before we go through that, we need to clean our space. We're going to start by cleaning out the closet.

I grabbed my vacuum cleaner first and I'm cleaning the floor of the closet as well as the baseboards and then I'm also going to vacuum off the shelves and the entire closet first because there's a lot in there that needs to be sucked out first before I can get a nice efficient clean.

Next, I'm going to take a damper egg and I'm going to wipe down all of the shelves the hanging rack, the floor, the baseboards, the walls and get it nice and good and clean. I'm going to place a shoe organizer into the bottom of the closet and I'm going to look at all the shoes we have. What I've calculated is each family member, and there are four of us, can have about four pairs of shoes that will fit on a shelf, so each family member gets a shelf and four pairs of shoes that you use the most often.

Now I'm going to teach you a little thing my mom had taught me and I passed this on to my kids: I'm going to take my mittens and place them into my hat. I'm also going to squeeze my scarf into one sleeve of my coat and then the hat and mitten combination. I'm going to put in the other sleeve of the coat. Place your snow pants onto your hanger and then place that inside, and now your whole outfit is complete.

Now we're going to talk about some of the things we can do with the shelves and one of the things I like to do is get some white baskets and I can even write the name of the family member on the basket so they can reach up and know that that's their basket. My husband has a lot of hats so I'm going to place hats in one of his baskets and you can stack them or you can fold them up whichever you prefer and place them in there the same can be done of any hats gloves scarves anything like that and you can have a basket per family member on the shelves another way you can hang up some of your accessories is to get a dollar store trash can I placed chalk stickers on the front of those trash cans and labeled each one with our names on it then inside of our laundry room.

We have a coat hanging rack above that I've placed four Command hooks so that each family member has their own Command hook and then I place the trash cans on the Command hooks. Now our coats are on the coat rack and our hats and mittens are above that and I can swap this out seasonally.
