Happiness is a clutter-free closet, say Glenview organizers
Organized Closet in Glenview
A recent article that came across our (tidy!) desk quotes Gretchen Rubin, the NY based founder of The Happiness Project. “The No. 1 thing people told me they do to make themselves happier, over and over, is make their bed.”
As professional organizers from Glenview, IL , we think that a clutter-free and organized closet adds to your happiness quotient as well.
Why? Let us count (some of) the ways:
- It’s faster to get dressed in the morning when the closet isn’t cluttered with clothing that doesn’t fit or is not in style.
- It’s easier to get ready when work outfits and workout gear are organized and separated by type.
- It’s less expensive to “shop your closet” when it’s decluttered enough for you to organize clothes and accessories in new and creative ways.
In other words, an organized closet saves you time, energy, and money.
To achieve these results, both tangible and intangible, we offer some closet decluttering and organizing advice.
- Get rid of the clutter first. Discard any items you don’t, or won’t, wear. Keep a bag handy for charitable donations.
- Find another home for anything that doesn’t belong in the bedroom closet.
- Bring in a friend with a critical eye to help.
- Stay organized by spending 10-15 minutes each day keeping the closet neat and clutter-free.
If tackling the whole closet seems overwhelming, start with a drawer or a shelf. The order that you bring to your space creates a sense of calm and control. And who wouldn’t be happy about that?
