TIPS TO MAKE THE BEST WARDROBE CHANGE

The change of wardrobe usually takes place with the change of season. It usually takes place at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. Another wardrobe change usually takes place at the end of winter and the beginning of the warmer months.

Some people love to change their wardrobe because it is a process of renewal. However, there are also those who hate that moment of opening the doors and sorting clothes.

Of course, it is a moment that we all go through and it is important to do it well. Firstly because, if we do it in an orderly way, it will take less time than we think and secondly, because well-placed clothes give a very pleasant feeling of order.

At DESMON we have accumulated a lot of experience as wardrobe manufacturers. This experience has allowed us to identify a series of tips to make the best wardrobe change. With this post we want to share with you all these tips and tricks. Would you like to discover them?

The reason for a wardrobe change is simple: it’s all about having the clothes you’re going to wear every day at hand. In addition, if you have a structured space, you will save a lot of time when it comes to getting dressed for going out. Everything you need will be accessible. Finally, changing your wardrobe will help you get rid of clothes you no longer wear and recover some that have been left at the bottom of the drawer.

So, the process of changing your wardrobe can be divided into 2 questions:

• the type of wardrobe to be renewed
• tricks to ensure proper order

Starting from these premises, we can carry out a total renovation of the interior and give the exterior areas an overhaul.

If you are lucky enough to have a large room with enough space, don’t hesitate to choose a wooden wardrobe with two doors. This type of wardrobe allows you to open both doors at the same time and see all your clothes at a glance.

Another interesting alternative is to opt for a built-in wardrobe. The space saving is multiplied and the room is much clearer. Whether you have a large bedroom or a smaller one, built-in wardrobes always provide plenty of storage space.

The third option is to install a wardrobe with sliding doors. They are designed for smaller rooms. The fact that you don’t have to open doors makes it easier to place them in front of the bed or bedside tables.

Now that we have looked at the different types of wardrobes on the market, we can focus on tips for changing. Of course, these tips can vary depending on the amount of clothes and accessories you have. You also need to keep in mind the space you have available.

From there you can develop a “checklist” that will allow you to achieve a practical, functional and aesthetic wardrobe change.

1. Time and availability

Always do your wardrobe change when you have time. It won’t take 15 minutes, or even half an hour. You will probably have to invest between 4 and 5 hours to get a good result.

2. Emptying the cupboard

Empty the wardrobe and place all clothes and accessories on the bed, for example. Now is the time to go through your clothes and get rid of those that no longer fit or that you no longer like. Before throwing anything away, think about recycling or donating.

3. Storage material

Get hangers, hangers, vacuum bags and boxes. These will all be useful for storing out-of-season garments.

4. Washing and drying

Clothes that you do want to keep should be washed and dried thoroughly. Especially those that you are going to store in boxes or vacuum bags. Put them in the top part of the wardrobe.

5. Cleaning of the cupboard

The next step is to clean the cupboard. Take advantage of the fact that it is empty and use a soft cloth and neutral soap to remove dust or dirt. When you have finished, use mothproofing products and scented sachets. Remember to also go over the outside area and repair any scratches or scratches on the doors.

6. Laying out clothes

Here the experts always recommend vertical storage, Marie Kondo style. That way, everything is visible and takes up very little space. It is always advisable to have a wardrobe that allows you to move shelves to adjust to the height of the piles of clothes.

It is important that the clothes you use the most are the ones that are closest to hand. Use hangers, boxes or covers to ensure that your clothes are neatly arranged.

7. Accessories

Remember to also arrange accessories such as belts, scarves, hats and shoes.

8. Free space

It is always advisable to leave some space in case you buy something during the season.

If you manage to develop these tips, you will have completed a tidy wardrobe change, with clothes to hand and space available to make room for more clothes.

At DESMON we always advise you to equip the inside of your wardrobes in a good way. That way, the storage capacity will be multiplied. Our design team can offer you the following options.
