Turn Your Closet Into a Boutique!

If you have a walk-in closet you can turn your closet into a boutique!  My daughters have helped me do just that!  They are amazing!!!  The key is to get rid of out dated and ugly clothes.  I donated mine to a good cause...29 garbage bags full!  It felt like loosing weight!  Here are some tips:
1.  Make it pretty-paint it pretty or wallpaper it!
2.  Upgrade any hardware.
3.  Add a furniture piece like a chair or loveseat.
4.  Use an old book shelf for all of your shoes.
5.  Match your hangers.  Use the same type and color.
6.  Add an island.  I use an old desk.
7.  Get the right light!  Add a lamp.
8.  Make your purses look pretty-stuff them with old crumpled up newspaper to hold their shape.
9.  Give away or throw away things that you will never wear again.
10. Hang everything UP!
11. Color group...put all the pinks together, all the yellows together...
12. Divide and conquer.  Put all of your pants together.   Put all of your scarves together,  and your     shirts together and your sweaters together...

13. Arrange the rainbow.  I put all of my tops and blouses according to the spectrum (rainbow) Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet (purple).
