The most important room in my house is my closet. Yes, I know I sound a little bit insane when I say that, but it truly is the most important room in my house. I am very fashion conscious so I have a lot of clothes, shoes, purses, scarves, hats, jewelry and sunglasses; keeping all of this organized isn’t  easy.

I am fortunate enough to have devoted an entire bedroom into being a closet, if you aren’t lucky enough to do that there are always other options that you can explore to make the best crafty closet just for you. If you have a room or large walk in closet like I do then you can create a crafty closet in a number of ways. The first thing you want to do is figure out how much of what you have. This means figure out if you have a lot of one item, such as dresses, jeans, shirts, shoes, or other things. You need to figure this out first so that you can customize your closet to best fit your needs.

Once you know what kind of space you need for what you have you can start configuring your closet. I personally have A LOT of shoes! So my number one concern for my closet was making shelves to hold all of my shoes. You can do this by buying regular shelves that can be used throughout your house, often for pictures, or you can create your own with some boards, glass, plastic or really anything that you can sit on top of the brackets to create shelves. A good tip to remember when you are creating your shelves is take into consideration what is going to be placed on them, while it might look better when they are all the same size, not all shoes are the same so be sure to create places for your highest heels and boots.

Now that your shoes are in place you can choose if you want to have a series of shelves and cubbys where you can place folded clothing or racks where you can hang them. Both can be created to maximize your space and organize your closet. You can also combine both shelves and racks. The most important thing to remember when you are placing hanging racks is to buy the ones that attach into your wall to insure that they don’t fall down.

Now you have all the right tools and ideas to create your very own crafty closet!
