Let’s jump into where and how to use sweater organizers in your spaces! Just click on the video above!
ORIGINAL FUNCTION
The purpose of these organizers is to store sweaters vertically from a closet rod.
WHAT NOT TO DO
These are not meant to contain heavy items as they are typically made of cardboard covered in fabric. The cardboard will bend, and the fabric will tear if overloaded.
BEST WAYS TO USE
The best ways to use these organizers can be to store hats, purses, and accessories, to plan kid’s–or even your–outfits for the week, to create a linen closet within a coat closet or the corner of a wardrobe closet if you don’t have a linen closet, and they are also great for baby clothes as you can throw their tiny little clothes by category into Dollar Tree bins!
UNCONVENTIONAL USES
Some unconventional ways to use these organizers, first, can be to use it for evening prep for the next day! You can designate a section for each family member, so they won’t forget anything they need to bring with them before leaving the house. You can store toss pillows at the top of your linen closet or even hanging in an unused coat closet. And, you can create a family fun center by storing board games!
HOW TO DECIDE IF YOU NEED A SWEATER ORGANIZER
These are perfect if you need to store a variety of lightweight items and if you utilize the top and bottom of your closet for other storage solutions. This can also be a great option for unconventional storage solutions in an unused coat closet.
HOW TO SAVE MONEY
First, as always, don’t purchase more hanging sweater organizers than you need. Again, you will pare down your items to what you need before you purchase any organizing products in general. This can be a budget-friendly storage option since it is the same as purchasing multiple bins in one. Also, a hanging sweater organizer can replace a dresser if you don’t have the space for one, or if simply don’t want to purchase a dresser. Here are links to affordable options:
