Using a Wooden Closet Organizer to Full advantage

Closet organizers permit you to make the most of the space within your closet or wardrobe. Not only that, but it also allows you to arrange your closet's contents so that they are literally retrievable. A closet organizer permits you to put your shoes together, your belts together and to organize all your other accessories. There is no doubt that a closet organizer is a good idea, the only selection left is whether you make or buy your closet organizer.

The best wardrobe organizer will fit your closet neatly, perfectly. This makes buying one the worse alternative, so if you are at all practical, the good selection is to make your own closet organizer to fit your closet exactly. There is of course, one other alternative, you could have it made for you, but that is the most costly option.

If you decide to assemble your organizer yourself, the simplest thing to do is to get hold of a good set of woodworking drawings. The wood working drawings will depict an exploded diagram of the closet organizer. Therefore, if your closet is not the same size as the one in the drawing, you will have to convert the dimensions in the drawings.

This is not so hard, you will just have to work out the ratio of the closet organizer in the drawings to the size of your own closet. For instance if the closet in the plans is four feet wide but your closet is six feet wide, you will need to advance the dimensions in the drawings by 50%. Likewise for the depth of the closet.

If you decide to have the organizer made up for you, you will have to specify the wood to be used and the cease to be applied to it. These decisions will also have to be taken if you decide to make your organizer yourself. If you do, it is best for you to get all the bits and pieces together that you will need before you start manufacture.

Another matter is what you want the organizer to hold. This can vary depending on your sex. Women tend to have more accessories, men tend to have more socks. Therefore, a woman's closet organizer should have lots of small drawers, whereas a man's may only have a few of them.

The timber you use to make the organizer from should match the colour and kind of timber already used in the organize of the wardrobe or closet itself. It is good if they match up. There literally is little point in investing in a hand-made closet organizer made from mahogany and beautifully stained, if the wardrobe itself is made from compressed wood chippings.
