Turn your closet from cluttered to calm!

Is your linen closet a jumble of sheets, towels and pillowcases? Take it from a sailor who knows how to keep things ship shape. Turn your closet from cluttered to calm and make it hold even more.
Create topple-proof stacks. Sheets falling into the hand towels? Beach towel tower toppling over? Try vertical shelf dividers to keep everything separate.
Fold for more room.Neatly folded sheets and towels take up about 25% less space because they're more compact.
Know the trick to keeping it all together.After you do laundry, sort sheets into sets for each bed, then store each inside of its pillowcases. This not only saves space, but your sheets sets are always kept together.
Free up at least half a shelf.Bulky tablecloths take up a lot of room in the closet – plus they end up with a permanent fold crease down the middle. Hang them up instead. Use a skit hanger with spring clips and put them in a coat closet. Or mount a towel rack on the back of your linen closet door and hang them there.
Lose a shelf to find more space.Most linen closets have pre-fabricated holes on the sides that allow you to move shelves around, so all you have to do is lift the bottom one out. You'll have room for a rolling drawer unit or dresser. Use it for napkins, hand towels and wash-cloths, and double your space.
TIP:My wife Chris, reminds that natural herb sachets containing lavender, peppermint, thyme, or cloves give linens a fresh scent while repelling moths.
