Jungle
Closet Before:
This
closet had a ‘jungle feel’ because it was only 3 hangers wide.
With clothes on each side, sidestepping was the only way to enter
& exit.
Perfect
Pantry Before:
This pantry would be a dream come true for many.
Although in mild disorder, it was spacious and served the family
well. Like many, the
homeowner did not get a feeling of order or calm when she used the
pantry because of the way things were thoughtlessly placed on the
shelves.
Linda Durham of Organizing Matters has been a professional organizer in
Houston, Texas since 1999. She
is a member of The National Association of Professional Organizers.

Jungle
Closet After:
Clothes were
rearranged to free up the left upper hanging space to either remain
empty or ‘shelf-out’ in the future. The only items removed from this closet were extra
hangers and one comforter. The
homeowner had already removed unwanted clothing before any photo
was taken. After
organizing, it was easy to move the bathroom hamper into the closet,
which gave the adjoining bathroom a bigger feel.
Boxes were also added to the closet without causing any storage
problems. The organizing
process gave the homeowners easier access and allowed plenty of wiggle
room necessary to maintain order in a high function area.
This closet took 4.5 hours to complete.
Perfect
Pantry After:
Simple changes were made to increase visibility and put
like things together. Old,
tired food was removed and ˝ filled products were consolidated when
possible. Adjustments were
made to take in consideration the height and reach of each family
member. The most important focus was to create order and smooth function.
This pantry took 1.5 hours to complete.
