Autumn is upon us and with it comes jackets, coats and sweaters, scarves, and blankets. Transitioning your wardrobe from summer to autumn is not always easy. The same amount of clothes but much more bulk. So how can we best organise our wardrobes to leave the right amount of space for our winter clothes? Here are some tricks to handle the change of seasons perfectly.
The equipment
Before you start emptying your wardrobe and drawers, equip yourself with everything you need to store your clothes and summer linen such as boxes, vacuum bags, moth repellent (strongly advised), labels to mark the boxes, and cleaning products for the wardrobe.
Empty the closet
Once you have gathered everything you need, it is time to take out your summer clothes, wash them, and put them in the boxes. It helps to divide them into household linen, clothing, and swimwear. Remember, the secret to making a change of season easy is organisation. Attach the labels to the boxes to help you easily find what you are looking for. Emptying your wardrobe is always a good opportunity to do clear out any sheets or clothes that are worn or that no longer fit. Once the wardrobe is empty, give it a thorough clean and place the moth repellent on hangers and in drawers.
Welcome autumn clothes
It is very important to pay attention to how autumn clothes are stored in the wardrobe. They take up much more space than the summer ones, which is why you must carefully choose which ones to fold and which ones to hang, which ones to put in drawers and which ones not. In this way, you will always be able to keep everything in perfect order so as not to occupy space unnecessarily. Hang dresses, skirts, jackets, and coats while favoring drawers for sweaters, jumpers and trousers. Don't forget to pay attention to the accessories too. Some accessoriesare specifically for summer. Do not leave them in the closet just out of laziness, put them in boxes along with other clothes to make room for gloves, hats and winter scarves.
Changing over your wardrobe for the new season always takes some time. It’s up to you if you prefer to do it in a single day or in several stages. A final piece of advice? To make it less boring, put your favorite playlist on and you will be able to finish the job in no time!
