space | Relieve closet chaos
This month’s issue of Better Homes and Gardens offers the following tips for transforming those tumbling piles of towels and sheets in the linen closet:
First, clear out everything. Then pare down what goes back in, keeping only what you regularly use.
Keep everyday items at eye level. Retain the top shelf for seasonal supplies like flannel sheets and beach towels.
Add storage by installing hooks to the back of the door.
Store heavy items on the floor in covered and labeled tubs.
