#1 Find Your Method
First of all, you should understand your organisation method. Not all organisation methods work well for everyone. Likewise, you’ll find organising your clothes for summer and then winter will come in handy. Think of an organisation method that best fits you and your lifestyle. For example, some prefer to fold their clothes whereas other prefer rolling. The most important part of organising is your ability to access your clothes and accessories easily.

#2 vertical Space
In most storage cupboards, we found that a lot of individuals were not using their vertical space appropriately or at all. Storage pockets you hang on the inside of your door are great for using vertical space. Another idea is to hang belts on a hanger in your cupboard rather than folding within a drawer, this uses less space and makes your belts easier to find.

#3 Appropriate Lighting
Did you know that appropriate lighting can improve space utilisation? A closet with very little light can look cluttered. This is why you should use plenty of overhead lighting. Above all, the right amount of lighting can help you find things easily too.

#4 Use Shelves and Dividers
Shelves and dividers are one of the best storage hacks around. A single running wooden shelf can be broken into several levels with the help of baskets and dividers. This way you can easily find small items in their appropriate pigeon hole.

#5 Arrange Everything
Last but certainly not least, you should arrange things neatly. Store things in the place they should be. If there are small apparels, you can roll them up and keep them inside small bags. Indeed, these steps can help drastically.
