Closets- Add a Top Shelf

I love CLOSETS!!! The more organized, the better. The thrill I get from organizing a closet and getting it to reach it's maximum capacity is insane. So, needless to say, this is my first of many posts about closets. And don't worry, your closet doesn't have to be HUGE in order for it to be fabulous - any size closet is workable.

My first closet tip- Put an additional shelf in the top of every closet in your house (about 12-18 inches from the ceiling). It is unbelievable how much storage space this will create for you. I use the top shelves in our closets for items we rarely use but don't want to store in the attic.

If you are a DIYer, purchase coated wire shelving at your local hardware store and install them yourself. For the rest of us, contact a local storage expert and arrange to have them installed (such as Container World- I highly recommend them).

I keep our crystal in the top of William's closet.

The top of my closet is used for our luggage.
