Master Closet Organization: Organize with a Wood Closet System

For many, the bedroom and closet are sanctuaries for relaxation. Whether unwinding or choosing an outfit, your master closet should meet your needs and reflect your style. The contrast between a basic attached closet and one designed with endless organizational options is significant. Taking control of your wardrobe organization can simplify your mornings and provide health benefits.

Reducing clutter and improving organization can lower hidden stress levels you might not have realized were affecting you. To achieve this peace of mind, you need to maximize your closet space. Installing a built-in wooden closet system elevates basic clothing rods into a fully integrated solution. Say goodbye to multiple dressers and stacked organizers—consolidate your clothes and accessories into one efficient system.

Mastering your closet space takes thoughtful planning, but it’s worth the effort. We provide ways to reduce stress by transforming your closet into a peaceful space for starting and ending your day.

 

 

Everything You Need, in One Space

A common issue with closets is the need for extra furniture to store smaller items and accessories efficiently. Your closet may have clothing rods for shirts, dresses, or coats, but it often lacks storage for other essentials. This forces you to buy organizers or even a dresser for pants and shirts, creating more clutter. Sometimes, the dresser won’t even fit in your closet, leading to frustration and limited organization options.

A built-in master closet eliminates the need for extra furniture, providing a more efficient and organized solution. Customizable features allow you to maintain clothing rods while adding drawers for shirts, pants, and accessories. This keeps everything neatly organized and easily accessible within one system.

A wooden closet system’s sleek finish enhances your space and simplifies your morning routine by keeping everything organized. You can fully customize your closet to fit your wardrobe and expand the space as your needs change.

 

Mastering Your Built In Closet Space

Closet needs vary from person to person. Sneakerheads may prioritize multiple shelves to showcase their daily-wear kicks. Fashion-savvy users might prefer extra clothing rods for hanging suits, dresses, and other essential pieces. For those with a diverse wardrobe, a balance of rods, shelves, and drawers can optimize the closet space.

While the final design depends on your unique needs, certain considerations can ensure long-term success with your built-in closet. A well-planned wooden closet provides both functionality and flexibility to support your lifestyle as it evolves over time.

 

 

Proper Shelving Depth

When designing your built-in closet, always consider measurements for both closet depth and height. Planning depth helps ensure you choose properly sized shelves and drawers. Typically, the shelf depth will be shorter than your closet’s total depth.

Whenever possible, allow space for 16-inch shelving to fit in your closet. This provides maximum storage on durable, beautiful wooden shelves. The extra depth lets you store more folded clothes, shoes, and hats. With more shelving, you reduce clutter in other areas of your closet. Less clutter leads to better organization and lower stress.

If space is limited, consider using 12-inch shelves instead of deeper ones. While smaller shelves offer less storage, they may fit better. Sometimes, adjusting shelf size is necessary based on your available closet space.

 

 

Solid Wood Drawers

As mentioned above, one of the great benefits of adding a closet built in to your space is eliminating the need for extra furniture. You may be using a six drawer dresser to fit many of your clothing items as well as accessories like socks, belts, and jewelry. When planning your new closet, make sure to include the option to add wooden drawers straight into your design. Not only will this eliminate extra furniture, it will allow you to have your whole wardrobe available right in front of you – in one space.

The addition of drawers, right into your closet space, also allows you to store jewelry trays that may house some of your staple pieces for any outfit. How many drawers you make room for depends on your wardrobe and what you need to store. Regardless of the amount, drawers make a seamless addition to any closet, and allow for easy mornings.

 

 

Store Vertically

Thinking vertically when designing wooden closets is something that many people don’t do enough of. You can often be limited by the amount of space you can build your closet in, but by thinking about vertical storage, you can maximize your closet space. Vertical storage towers , or stacking shelves underneath clothing rods in a vertical manner can multiply the amount of space you have available to you.

Designing a closet built in should be a fun and creative exercise. Break out of the box and utilize the most space you can by thinking about creative ways to organize your closet storage options. Adding vertical rows of storage allows you to have different sections for different events. Whether you want to divide your clothing by occasion or season, vertical storage lets this happen. Not to mention that vertical storage can play tricks on the eye and make your closet space seem larger than it is. An aesthetically pleasing and functionally appropriate addition to any wooden built-in closet!

 

Your Closet Should Reflect Yourself

Ultimately when building your master closet built in, you want to ensure that it is a space that makes sense for your needs. If you are more of a folder than a hanger, cut down on the amount of clothing rods you plan to have, and perhaps use that space for another drawer or shelf. You will be spending almost every morning and night, in some capacity, in your brand new closet so make sure it’s a space you enjoy. Once the design and functionality of your closet is set, feel free to move on to the aesthetics of the closet.

You want to ensure that there is proper lighting in your closet so that you can see your daily outfit in proper lighting. Making space for a full body mirror that has an overhead light equipped can do wonders for your fashion mind. At this time too, you can begin to think about what beautiful stain you want equipped with your wooden closet built in. Try to match the wood stain to a theme that follows the rest of your home, or make it entirely its own design. Like the storage options, the visuals of your closet are entirely up to you. We can’t wait to see what you make!
