Q&A: Hanger Storage Solutions?
Question: I’m looking for a plastic hanger holder that I saw at my daughter’s house but she doesn’t know where she got it from.
It’s white plastic and your extra hangers slip over the top of it and store your hangers neatly one on top of the other rather then trying to store them on a closet shelf where they get tangled. It’s triangular in shape and has a name on it: Ganga Danga or Danga Ganga. She bought 2 of them a couple of years ago. I would like to get several of them. Continue Reading »

Change of Seasons calls for a Closet Makeover
I don’t know about elsewhere, but here in North Carolina, we’ve had a cold spell. It is still August so it’s not really “cold”, but considering the high temperatures we’ve had for the last several weeks, the chill in the air is a nice change. Some of the trees in my back yard are even showing some hints of orange, yellow and red.
Autumn is the season I long for all year. I enjoy the brisk air, the crackling leaves and the deep colors. The kids head back to school. Family reunions and chicken stews take place. And Halloween is just around the corner.
With this change of seasons comes the need to do some organizing - or rather, some RE-organizing. Earlier this week, I was getting ready for work when I realized I should probably wear a sweater. A sweater in August??? You bet! (Didn’t I mention the cold spell?) The problem was, all my sweaters were in open stacks at the top most part of my closet and have not been washed since the first part of Spring. They were collecting dust! The morning rush is NOT the time to find out you have to wash the clothes you plan to wear to work. I did some creative layering that morning and decided I needed to give my closet a makeover. Not one that would just take care of holding all my clothes neatly, but a makeover that would help me to easily transition from one season to the next. Continue Reading »

Closet Mayhem
I finally went through and organized my dresser drawers. It was a hassle but I’m glad I did it. I love how much easier it is finding clothes to wear in the morning. There just one problem, I want to put my pants and shoes in my closet but have no room. I have a small closet with no doors to it. Plus, I have a tote full of winter clothes in my closet. It takes up all the floor room. I’ve tried putting my shoes on top of the tote but they just get in the way of my shirts.
I am thinking about getting a double hang. It would provide space for my pants in the closet but I’m afraid it would hang too low. This wouldn’t be a problem if I had somewhere else to put my tote. I’ve tried under my bed but it’s too tall. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with it. If any one has any suggestions please leave a comment. It would be very helpful. Thanks
