As apartments and condominiums are getting smaller and smaller, it is not surprising that the accompanying closet space also leaves something to be desired. While many a renter or homeowner is able to get rid of furniture that may be too big and bulky for the confines of the space, getting rid of small odds and ends and also clothes or memorabilia is an entirely different matter. In the same vein, those who have managed to scale back but now need suitable storage solutions for the absolute must haves, small closets, narrow storage compartments, and sometimes even narrow but tall alcoves present an odd problem: how to capitalize on storage areas that defy the most commonly found household organizer or Home Depot storage closet organizers?
Utilizing the versatility of the hanging closet organizer is a much overlooked methodology for ridding yourself of cheap closet organizers made of plastic, wire, or particle board. In the same vein, the very narrow closets oftentimes make snap together storage closet organizers impractical and anyone working with a small space knows that a wire closet organizer with a closet shoe organizer will take up more space than its storage capacity makes practical. Sure, the hanging canvas shoe organizers usually work well, and when you combine them with a hanging closet organizer you simply cannot lose, but is this truly a useful solution for crammed quarters?
The answer, of course, is a resounding yes. Unlike wood closet organizers which take up too much room since the shelving is thick and bulky, in the absence of a spacious walk in closet an organizer needs to take up as little space as possible while at the same time providing durable, sturdy, and functional storage capacity. Although you might be tempted to simply invest in a kids’ closet organizer you will find that an adult sized model offers a lot more options and also versatility. Hook it up to the clothing rod that is already found in the closet, and you have a sturdy but moveable storage salutation. Additionally, keep in mind that in even the most confined spaces a hanging closet organizer will permit for vertical storage and for the hard to reach tall closets the option of shelves may be put to good use above the hanging organizer.
Since a canvas closet organizer that is not only reasonably priced but remarkably versatile will lend itself to multitasking, you may find that instead of setting apart a corner for a home office, you may just decide to install one in your closet with a hanging closet organizer functioning as your supply holder, paper storage, and maybe even inbox. Depending on the ability to fid a small shelf onto the bottom to hold computer peripherals, some professionals have found that even the crammed and close quarters of a storage closet may make for a great storage solution that will free up living space in a spatially challenged apartment. So go head and let your imagination run wild – you will be surprised how many uses you can find for the versatile hanging closet organizer!
