HEY, LET'S FACE IT: WE CAN ALWAYS USE MORE CLOSET SPACE IN OUR HOMES. BUT THERE'S USUALLY NOT A PLACE TO BUILD ANOTHER CLOSET, SO WE HAVE TO STICK WITH WHAT WE ALREADY HAVE. AND THE BEST WAY TO UTILIZE THAT SPACE IN THE MOST EFFICIENT MANNER IS TO ORGANIZE IT BETTER. JUST HAVING A SHELF WITH A CLOSET ROD HANGING CLOTHES AND THEN THROWING SHOES AND EVERYTHING ELSE DOWN ON THE BOTTOM IS NOT THE BEST WAY. THE BEST WAY IS TO ACTUALLY REORGANIZE THE CLOSET YOU HAVE. THERE ARE COMPANIES OUT THERE THAT WILL COME IN AND SAUY, 'OK, WE'RE GOING TO PUT THESE SHELVES HERE FOR FOLDING CLOTHES, SWEATERS. WE CAN HANG LONG CLOTHES HERE AND MAYBE A DOUBLE LAYER OF SHORTER CLOTHES - AND A SHOE RACK DOWN AT THE BOTTOM.'

THERE WERE THREE DIFFERENT CLOSETS IN OUR HOUSE THAT THE NEAT FREAKS WORKED ON. THEY DESIGNED THEM FOR A SPECIFIC PURPOSE. OBVIOUSLY, THE ONE IN OUR HALLWAY IS KIND OF OUR 'CATCH-ALL THROW THE JUNK IN HANG THE WINTER COATS' CLOSET. ON OUR MASTER BEDROOM CLOSET, THIS WAS JUST A STRAIGHT, NINE-FOOT RUN OF CLOSET ROD WITH STUFF THROWN ON THE FLOOR. AS YOU CAN SEE ON THIS SIDE, WE'VE ACTUALLY GOT TWO SEPARATE SIX FOOT CLOSET RODS, SO WE'VE ACTUALLY PICKED UP THREE MORE FEET OF CLOSET ROD. WE NOT ONLY PICKED UP THREE MORE FEET FOR HANGING CLOTHES, BUT WE ALSO PICKED UP THIS 39-INCH ADJUSTABLE SHELF SPACE. NOT ONLY CAN YOU ADJUST BETWEEN THE SHELVES DEPENDING UPON YOUR NEEDS, YOU CAN ACTUALLY HAVE IT LAY FLAT OR SET IT AT AN ANGLE FOR YOUR SHOES.
DON SAYS IF YOU'RE PLANNING A REMODEL OR BUILDING A NEW HOME, NOW'S A GOOD TIME TO PLAN FOR A WELL-ORGANIZED, EFFICIENT CLOSET.
