How to Zone a Small Closet
Same closet, twice the room, no renovation.
Our closet is the width of a generous doorway. Zoning it by height was the single biggest improvement, and it cost less than a takeout order.
The sheet, in text
- Top shelf: Out of season. Heavy knits, swimwear, spare bedding. One bin per category.
- Eye level: What you wear weekly. Matching slim hangers. Hang by type, then by colour.
- Lower rod: Shirts and trousers. A hanging second rod doubles the rail.
- Floor: Shoes. A rack, never a pile. Boots at the end, upright.
- Door: Bags, belts, scarves. Over-door hooks or a pocket organizer.
