How To Start Your Closet Organization Project

Every good home improvement project starts with a solid plan. Before you purchase your closet organization products at Sam's Club, you need to consider the following before you start building:

• Size of your closet storage area: Do you have a walk-in closet or a small linen closet in your bath that needs organization? Take measurements, and visualize how you want the space to look.
• What you will be storing: Do you need a hanging closet organizer because you are tight on space? Or maybe you are trying to optimize your shoe storage. Identify what type of items you need to store before you begin shopping.
• Storage layout plans: With measurements and storage requirements complete, draw out on paper how you want your closet to look. You may only have one room for a shelf, but a lot of space for stackable storage boxes. Drawing out the plan will put into perspective how your area will look and exactly what will fit within each space.
• Material (heavy duty vs. lightweight): Are you outfitting your laundry room with a heavy duty garment rack, or are you looking for streamline pieces to match your wood closet? The scope of your project will determine what type of material you choose. Pick materials that will make the most out of your space, for both durability and aesthetics.
• Color: most closet organizer kits come in a variety of wood finishes, or metal veneers to suit your style needs. Browse the selection to find other perfect colors to match your space.
• Determine your budget: You can create a closet makeover for a minimal amount of money, or you can build the space out to deluxe proportions. When visualizing your layout, make sure you choose products that align with both your budget and need.
