Guest rooms

Especially in a smaller guest space, room to store extra belongings may be at a premium. Whether your goal is to make guests feel more at home or to create overflow storage for your own items, make the most of your closet space. ClosetMaid’s ShelfTrack organizer kit comes with everything you need — wire shelves, hang track, brackets, hardware and hang rods — all in one box. This affordable storage solution works on an adjustable mounting system, which makes it easy to reconfigure shelf space or the entire closet design as your needs change. With the right organizer in place, you and guests will have ample room to stow clothing, suitcases and more.

Simple Space Making Tips

From the garage to the living room, every area of the home is susceptible to clutter. Use your weekend, along with some of these clutter-free solutions, and breathe new life into your spaces.

Be a successful sorter. Since tidying up a space requires time and patience, sorting your items can make the task at hand a bit easier. Use large laundry hampers or storage bins and label them as “keep,” “trash,” or “donate/sell.” Ask yourself the last time you used the item in question. If the item hasn’t been touched in years, it may be time to let it go.

Start small. The task of organizing an entire room can be daunting, so take baby steps. Direct your attention to sorting one shelf, cabinet or wall at a time, being careful not to move to another area until the first section is complete. When you feel like giving up, look at the space you’ve spruced up to reenergize and refocus on your next tidying task.

Keep it up. After you’ve tackled a weekend cleaning session, revisit these once-cluttered areas at least once a month. Spending just 15 minutes to keep areas neat and orderly can save you big time later on.
