That way I can see my stash </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-organize-your-dream-wardrobe-closet#post-1284205 Sat, 21 Jun 2014 15:28:56 +0000 unfrumped 1284205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you do major seasonal rotations, I would plan for that. Your off season storage might be configured the same or might be more utilitarian-- mothproof bins , boot boxes.<br /> For generic ideas, I like storing my shoes above eye level and clothes on 2 levels of rods below. I can " see" things better that way. I am an aggressive hanger , though, even knits. I prefer belts on rows of hooks, again for see- me/ wear- me, but that takes wall or door space. It's worse now with lower- rise pants because belts are longer! I used to be able to reach 2 rows of belts, one above the other, but that is harder now.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-organize-your-dream-wardrobe-closet#post-1284195 Sat, 21 Jun 2014 15:04:40 +0000 Alana in Canada 1284195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are tons of ideas out there.

I have incorporated everything into my living space kind of like movable or functioning artwork. I would not change a single thing. Maybe more display space for my shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-organize-your-dream-wardrobe-closet#post-1284144 Sat, 21 Jun 2014 14:08:20 +0000 Astrid 1284144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Suz, I have always adapted to what I had. I bought my current closet when I moved into my flat and I could think about what I wanted to a degree, but I had very exact dimensions I had to keep because there was only one place where the closet could go without taking up too much space. That said, I don't think I would want something much bigger in the future, it helps to keep the wardrobe small (and at the moment I also store bed linen and towels in there). But I would want a deeper one with more hanging space. So maybe go to 1,5m width instead of 1m and add a decent clothes rail. And at the moment I have the highest version IKEA has on offer to make the most of the room I have, but it's not really practical because I can't reach the top without a chair. I don't have my shoes in there either, I always have the ones that are temperature appropriate next to the door and the others stored in boxes in a different place. I also don't have bags and jewelry in it. I think you should think carefully what you want to put in there and what you think would be practical for you before you start planning. </p> <p>ETA</p> <p>Just saw your comment. I have my belts loosely rolled in a box in the wardrobe, but I'm sure there are better solutions. I have my two or three most used bags on a hook in a corner of the room, the others are under the bed in a box. As for shoes, I would never want them together with my clothes, maybe I'm strange that way. We always had extra shoe storage in the halway and that's where they belong IMO.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-organize-your-dream-wardrobe-closet#post-1284133 Sat, 21 Jun 2014 13:55:20 +0000 Ingunn 1284133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've always done the same, Suz! This time, though, I think we need to remove a provisory walk-in closet to reopen a hallway because we need the passage from the new kitchen. This means that we are starting from scratch with the wardrobes.&nbsp;</p> <p>The closet designers/providers can probably help, but I think I know my basic needs already. What I'm very interested in is great solutions for shoe, belt and bag storage.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-organize-your-dream-wardrobe-closet#post-1284105 Sat, 21 Jun 2014 13:15:38 +0000 Suz 1284105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ikeahackers.net">Ikea hackers</a>(blog). But she is going to have to change the name because Ikea is suing her....alas!!&nbsp;</p> <p>I have no idea how I would do this, Ingunn. I think in the past I have tended to adapt to whatever was there once I was there. In other words -- try to fit things in with what is available and if nothing fits, then shop for storage. But I will only know what I need based on what it looks like after I start arranging. And I have pretty much done this on intuition.&nbsp;</p> <p>I do think that those closet design places have formulas for figuring it all out.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-organize-your-dream-wardrobe-closet#post-1284058 Sat, 21 Jun 2014 10:33:36 +0000 Ingunn 1284058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm moving in a few months, and I think I will have to buy new wardrobe closets for our new apartment. There is no walk in wardrobe. I would love to hear your thoughts on:</p> <p>How do you measure your needs? What are the genius hacks I should know of?&nbsp; </p>
