Rotating Seasonal Clothing

The seasons are changing and it is time to consider putting off summer or winter clothes depending on where you live --- and get the clothes that were stored away .

This is a good time to look at all the articles of clothing that you have in your wardrobe. Going out to check each and tears and stains. Analyze if you like, you, even if she wore this year and if you want to keep. The statistic is that 80 of what we hung in our cupboards.

When you find something that needs repair, then place it in a basket to be repaired. I prefer a basket because the articles can be seen in a bag and they can be forgotten. "Out of sight, out of mind." Either take these questions to the room where your supplies are sewing if it is something you can fix or put in a lot of give to someone else to repair. If it needs repairs, but you know that you do not do cling to it. Get your wardrobe. Either give it to someone you know me (informing them of the problem) or make a donation to a charity.

For clothes that must be dry cleaned in a bag and take it out of your vehicle, then when you're on the road and you can drop the cleanup. Schedule of the day, you go to the cleanup on your calendar, the chances are greater that you will get the articles. If your clothes are dirty or stains on it's time to wash and remove the stains so you can put away clean. More left a stain is more difficult to remove.

For the clothes are clean and in good condition but you do not see you ever wear them again, or not to make a donation to a local charity.

Now the clothes you are keeping for next year that are left in your closet, or switch to another private in your house, or perhaps store them in a big box of clothing movers. The clothes can hang and you can put the box in your garage or storage room. If your privacy is large enough, you can move your clothes in the back of your closet if you have no where else to move.

For the clothes you time in plastic trays which are clearly marked outside. You can label the boxes using a label or a 3X5 card with tape clear packing tape on the outside of the box. You can label is a season or seasonal.

Take your coat and take private winter coats and clothing for winter sports and is placed in another closet or with your seasonal clothes.

After removing all your seasonal clothes take the current season clothes and organize them in your wardrobe. Check to see if any of these need of repair or cleaning in case they slipped past last year's inspection.

Shoes can be stored with off-season clothing. Clean and polish all shoes and boots and check if they need repair. If they do, it is time to take to repair shoes. Place in a bag and place them in the car so that they can be deposited when you are out and about. For high boots to keep their shape and prevent wrinkles insert an empty paper towel roll in the trunk and store them in an upright position. Or things with paper towel.

By the rotation of your clothes you have space in your closet to see what you have to wear and it is also a time to weed out clothes that you do not want to keep.
