NAPO-WDC member and Certified Professional Organizer®, Scott Roewer, gives step by step instructions on how to organize your closet during his Get Organized Month presentation at IKEA Woodbridge (January 2010).
It’s that time of year again! Here are 12 tips to help you re-organise your wardrobe: 1. Do your clearout in December or June, before the sales. 2. Do it in the morning, after a good breakfast. That way you have enough energy to go through all your items, and you can see them in good light. 3. Have someone else there whose opinion you trust. Someone who sees fit rather than trend preferably. 4. Get some awesome music on in the background, to keep the atmosphere fun and upbeat. 5. Take time to have a snack and a cup of tea. Keep hydrated and energised as it can be quite draining. 6. Make some excellent Toss/Take/Create signs, so its more fun. 7. Go through each item individually and work out when you last wore it. If you havent worn it in a while, why not? Is it the colour, fit or style? Try it on. 8. Be honest. If you love the style but it doesnt fit right, give it to charity and find one that fits beautifully. 9. Have a creative pile for things that need adjusting, dying, re-hemming or re-purposing. 10. Write down a list of things youve thrown out from over-wear, that you want to replace, and then write a list of things you think would make your wardrobe more versatile. 11. Have a full-length mirror close by so that you can see exactly what you look like in your clothes. 12. Start with things that are on hangers, as these are often the hardest to decide on, the least worn and the most complicated to get in and out of. See alissaloves.blogspot.com for more info.

- Put similar items together – jackets with jacket, skirts with skirts, layering pieces with other layering pieces et cetera. Then, arrange by color – light to dark. – Try to hang as much as you can, because, if you don’t see it, you don’t wear it. Fold things like jeans, t-shirts, shorts, camis, and heavy sweaters. – I also recommend hanging your jewelry in your closet. It eliminates another step when getting ready in the morning and, again, if you don’t see it, you don’t wear it. Sometimes a piece of jewelry can even inspire an outfit! – Cut out images, color combinations, or outfits that you like as these are great wardrobe inspirations. – No wire hangers. Plastic, felt or wooden hangers are preferred (anything with a rounded edge). www.mybest-footforward.com twitter.com
