Are you tired of stumbling over shoes or “losing” pieces of clothing in an overcrowded space? Do you dream of having an organized closet where everything has a designated place? If so, it’s time to consider building your perfectly organized closet — one that will reflect your sense of style and function that makes getting dressed each day a joy. From determining your needs to choosing the accessories that will work best for you, each step is important in creating a closet that will be your haven of organization.
Step 1 - Determine Your Needs
The first step in creating your dream closet is to identify your needs. What do you need to store? Do you have a large shoe collection, piles of yoga pants, or many hang-up items that take up a lot of room? Think about your daily life and which closet features would make it better. For instance, would you like to incorporate a tilt-out hamper inside your closet or a sliding belt rack to organize accessories? Let our designers know. They’ll listen to your wants and needs so they can design a closet specifically to fit your space and meet your needs.
Step 2 - Budget for your project
Setting a budget before you begin your project will guide your decisions and help you stay within any financial constraints. Remember that building a dream closet doesn’t have to break the bank, especially since Closets by Design has beautiful collections designed to fit all budgets. Plus, our no-interest financing plan lets you know upfront what your total cost will be and exactly how much you’ll owe each month. That means you don’t have to pay for everything at one time and you can begin enjoying your closet while you make affordable monthly payments.
Step 3 - Decide Which Layout Is Best for You
What kind of closet do you want to transform? Is it a reach-in or walk-in closet? The vertical space in a reach-in closet can be maximized to utilize every available inch of storage. Walk-in closets can be customized to include room for dressing or to incorporate an island with drawers. No matter how much space you have, our designers will work their magic to transform it into a dream closet!
Step 4 - Choose Your Favorite Look
The materials you choose for your closet will impact the overall look of the closet. We have a wide variety of color options to match with any décor in your home. There are many upgrade options available such as crown molding and decorative door fronts to help you enhance the look of your closet. You get to select the options you like to fit within your budget. With so many features to choose from, you’ll have no trouble finding a color and style to suit your personality.
Step 5 – Pick Your Accessories
For most people, picking out the perfect accessories is the fun part of the closet design process. Think of it as jewelry for your closet! Closets by Design offers a wide selection of stylish and functional drawer pulls and handles. Maybe you’ll want chrome wire baskets on slides instead of traditional drawers. We have hidden accessories that you only pull out when you need them such as a full-length mirror or an ironing board. There are many practical accessories such as racks for ties, belts, scarfs and more. And be sure to ask your Designer to demonstrate the valet rod – once you see it, you’ll have to have one..
