This is what our wardrobes looked like when we moved in - not the best use of space.
This is the photo you'll have seen in the previous post of my wardrobe after we fitted and moved shelves about.
And below is the photo of my husband's wardrobe after we re-organised it. Instead of using a rod and hangers for Mr Laundrybasketcase's trousers, I bought some long prongs that are meant to be used on a slatwall in a shop. I got the idea after seeing the IKEA trouser hanger system, but theirs was too big for our wardrobe. It is so much easier to use this system than hangers.
I use to think that our wardrobes would be tidier if only we had more space. But it doesn't work that way. The truth is the more space there is, the more we would find to fill it up. So the best we can do is to keep our wardrobes organised and clutter free by not having more than can fill the space. Easier said than done... I know.
But for now I better get working on my next post! It's a secret one!

Your last post inspired me to get in & clean my wardrobe up & I was good and even took photos- so stay tuned. Hope we don't have to wait to long for your next post
The trouser hangers are genius! How much easier and quicker to slide them onto those than man-handle them as well as a hanger (when really you could use 3 hands!). Clever, clever! :)
Great post.b
I badly need to do this in our own closet! Problem is, I'm crackerjack at emptying, but very poor at reconfiguring the space. I've gutted my closet and now need to fill it with shelves and what not. Even after looking at photos in mags and such, I'm at a loss as to how to translate that to my closet!
Your's looks great, by the way!
