If you want to organize your closet, you don't need to undergo a massive overhaul. Simple changes can have a big impact. Here are a few examples from California Closets. Add a trouser rack to keep your pants in one spot and free up space to hang your shirts. A simple valet rod reserves space to set aside tomorrow’s outfit. Drawer dividers work well to organize small accessories, like socks and ties. For your jewelry drawer, insert a divider to keep your baubles visible and protected. To keep your shoes off the ground and in your sightline, add vertical shelves. Finally, replace your current light fixture with a bright, new one; it not only adds character, but also properly illuminates the space. 565 Westport Ave., Norwalk; californiaclosets.com
“One of the best tips to maintaining an organized closet is to have a dedicated place in your closet for each category of clothing. So, shoes should have their own section of your closet as should pants, shirts and jewelry.”
