Wardrobe organization: how to use hangers properly to conserve your clothes

Time to confess: is your bedroom organized or messy?

In my opinion, there's nothing like a neat and clean wardrobe. That's why I wanted to share a few important thoughts with you today about organization.

Wardrobe organization: how to use hangers properly to conserve your clothes

It may sound crazy, but hangers are decisive to conserve special pieces and make our lives more convenient. Here are some precious tips:

  • It's vital to have similar hangers. This is because clothes will be at the same eye level so that you can see e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g.

  • Hangers standardization brings virtual comfort and harmony.

  • Don't know which type to buy? I recommend getting thin velvet hangers. They really save space and are non-slippery.

  • This following tip I learned from @genniorganizer, a dear friend who is a personal organizer. She told me once to use kids' hangers to store pants - it fits perfectly!

  • Don’t keep dry cleaner’s hangers (or plastic covers). They are made just for transportation, therefore they can damage your products if used for a long time. 

  • For heavier clothing items, such as jackets or winter coats, go for thick hangers.

Do you have a favorite hanger? Share your ideas with me, too. I love to read your comments!
