Storing Off-Season Clothes With No Closet Space

Make a functional spot for storing your clothes if you don’t have a closet. Clothing can be stored in the open, behind a curtain, or on a rod. Catie Kelly, the founder of Sistamatic Organizing, advises keeping out-of-season clothes when you don’t have much closet space.

Kelly, who organized Porsha Williams’ current home, recommends thinking outside the box regarding seasonal storage. “Make use of vertical spaces like walls and doors, and store things underneath couches and beds.” Here are three clothes storage solutions for spaces without closets:

Combine Using Dressers, Rods, And

Shelves

There are countless ways to mix and match these products to fit your space and storage needs. An empty wall can be transformed into a closet space with a small dresser, hanging rod, and shelving. You can hang dresses, coats, and handbags above a low dresser. You can also store handbags, shoes, and other accessories on the dresser surface.

Contain Clothes Storage With a Curtain

You can hang curtains over a clothes rod if you don’t want to see your clothes all the time in a wall nook. Light-blocking curtains will prevent sunlight from fading your clothing, as well as matching your room decor.

Employ Clothing Racks

There are many sizes of clothing racks to suit your storage needs, and they are relatively easy to assemble. These racks can hang blouses, jackets, dresses, and handbags. If it is housing most of your wardrobe, choose a quality rack that doesn’t feel flimsy.

You can create a closet look along a straight wall using an inexpensive freestanding wardrobe system featuring interchangeable components. Find a solution that fits your space through big-box, home improvement, and online stores.

Use Under-Bed Baskets

Baskets are great for storing clothes or other rarely-used items. They’re ideal for off-season clothes, shoes, accessories, and rarely-used items that aren’t easily accessible as drawers or hanging storage.
