Closets Creative Fun Ways To Fix Your Closet

Creative Closet Storage Solutions Content provided by Extra Places Looking up Sometimes the space you seek may be right over your head. Combining two closets with a shallow attic can create a dressing room that literally reaches for the rafters, like the one shown. Vaulting the ceiling can make room for a third tier of hanging space for out-of-season clothing, plus shelving for shoes, hats, and other items. Down below, the his-and-her closet has a drawer-lined peninsula dividing the two areas.

For the non closet guy. Ties and belts are easy to find in carefully organized drawers; the ones shown were custom-built to fit not only the space but also the contents.

Space savvy A good way to carve out space for a dressing room is to "borrow" from the bedroom. Located along an outer wall in the master suite, the inside wall of the dressing area shown here consists of built-in his- and-her bureaus and cabinets; they stop short of the ceiling to promote cross-ventilation into the sleeping area. This "corridor" also connects the suite with the master bath. Another idea for non closet folks is a bin organizer

Shoe Cubbies On the outer wall of the same space, two banks of shelves are enclosed by clear plastic doors. Because everything can be seen at a glance, the owners don't have to waste time rummaging around for clothing or accessories. Between the shelving units, a window seat provides a comfy spot to put on socks and shoes, and has a bank of storage underneath. Good lighting helps the owners mix and match color choices. The Shoe cubby keeps the sock drawer organized.

What's different? His dressing room has tiered rods for suits and shirts, plus shelving for sweaters. Uniquely his are the stair-stepped rods that make choosing a necktie a cinch. Hers might have hanging sweater and shoe racks.

Pant Cubbies For her, an additional cedar-lined closet branches off her everyday closet to hold her large collection of clothing from India. Shelves hold silk saris, tops, and skirts, and special-occasion dresses and matching pants are neatly aligned on hangers. For him, consider a pant cubby.
