If you and your husband have separate closets, today’s is the day to go through his stuff and your kids’ clothes. It’s much harder to clean a husband’s closet. My rule is to only donate and throw out worn, torn, and rags. He will probably want to keep that old college sweat shirt of his even though you hate it. So the best way to do it is to get rid of clothes that are absolutely rags. Then put the ones in question mark in a bad and let him sort out on his own. If you’re lucky, he might decide to get rid of them for good.
For kids’ closet, if your kids are young, then you’re in luck. Donate and outgrown ones and if you want to keep some cute outfits for sentimental reason, put them in a space saver bag or a plastic container. You can put them in the basement of attic for storage.
Once you figure out what to keep, get nice hangers and arrange them by colors and seasons. You don’t really need to invest a lot to get a custom closets for children’s rooms. But simple shelves in the closets do magic in space savings.
Put off season clothes in plastic containers and store them underneath the bed. It’s easy to get them and it saves closet space.
