Fake It Till You Make It

Written By Tracey Shadley

You know that old saying “You can’t always get what you want”? We all have an image of what our dream closet should look like. What’s yours?


Fancy wood with traditional moldings? Modern, sleek and floating? Simple classic and functional?


No matter what it may be… sometimes we just can’t have it at this moment.  Never say never.

You know what you can do?


Fake it until you make it! (Another great expression) 


When you can’t build the custom closet of your dreams, you can work with accessories and organization to “fake it”. You may not get the aesthetic you dream about, but the organization can certainly be on its way!

HERE ARE SOME IDEAS FOR YOU TO GET STARTED:


  • ADD A DOUBLE ROD to give you some extra hanging space.

  • HANG BY HEIGHT to make the hanging sections look uniform and neat.

  • HANG LIKE WITH LIKE to keep your categories of clothes together makes them accessible and easy to find 

  • MATCHING HANGERS is an easy change to make the closet look less cluttered and more consistent.

  • SHOE RACKS will keep pairs of shoes together and off the floor   

  • RACKS for ties and belts will keep them hanging and in good shape

  • STACKABLE STORAGE DRAWER will help contain things that can’t be folded easily like bathing suits or scarves


If you have any favorite accessories, PLEASE SHARE!
