The world is full of incredible items, miscellaneous junk, fascinating knick-knacks, and so much more. From works of art to your favorite little trinkets, you will certainly need a way to keep everything organized. If you aren’t much of a collector, and fit in more with the people who have a junk drawer, you are likely still looking for a way to keep your home appealing to the eye.

How to Get Stylish with Your Closet Organization

Clutter, mess, drawers full of junk; these can all be instant stressors that make your home less enjoyable. Your home is supposed to be a place where you can flourish and mentally relax. If you have secret stashes and disarray, your home can’t live up to expectations.

Here at White Oak Interiors, we believe that organization is key to a happy home. That’s why we have put together a few home organization ideas for your house. If you want to relax within your abode in peace, be sure to keep reading to discover how you can:

  • When you first arrive. As you arrive home, you will get your first impression of how the atmosphere will be. If you walk in and immediately see piles of items and cabinets ajar with unnecessary chaos, you will certainly be put on edge, immediately. You can keep your entry neat by anticipating your needs for the week. If you know you will need different shoes, jackets, or an umbrella, you can prepare your items within a lovely entry cabinet or closet space. You don’t have to leave your rain boots, snow boots, light jackets, and other items laying in a jumbled mess, just because you know you will need them very soon. Closets and coat racks will help you store only the necessary items near the entry way and keep those items that aren’t needed immediately.

  • The infamous junk drawer. Sometimes, there are just those items that have a very important use, but you never know when you will need it. So, until the time arrives, you store it in your “junk drawer”. Slowly, as more items begin to find their new homes in the drawer, your junk drawer begins turning into an abyss. Instead of a junk drawer where all items are compiled into one space, invest in some drawer dividers, which can separate one item from the next. This way, you will see organization, rather than a drawer that causes confusion each time you open it.

  • The dreaded laundry items. No matter how hard you try, it’s still all too easy to only retrieve one sock from the pair when it comes time to do laundry. These singles begin to pile up within your drawers and you begin to lose your pairs among the chaos. Instead, you can quarantine your lone socks to the laundry room until they are reunited with their mate. Consider creating little bins in your laundry room for missing socks, loose change, or other items that may fill your family member’s pockets when it comes time to do laundry. This way, everyone can retrieve their items from their bin, in an organized fashion.
