Seasonal Clothing
Does anyone "swap" their clothes each season? I don't have a lot of closet space so I'm trying to use under the bed storage containers so I can swap my seasonal clothing twice a year. This is such a hassle so I'm wondering if it's something normal people do and I'm also wondering if there is an easier way to do it? Also, how does everyone store their off-season clothes?
Re: Seasonal Clothing
I have a combination of too much clothing and a small master closet. DH and I each have one large (18 gallon I believe) Rubbermaid container in our basement. We have a lot of basement storage so this isn't an issue. I always grew up packing away our out of season clothing, but I figured I may have inherited this habit from my mother.
I wish I didn't have to pack it away, but it's usually just sweaters, heavy pants, fleece pjs and socks that I wouldn't be wearing in the summer anyway.
I never used to...but since being married and moving into a house with limited closet space....I've started. Especially since our closet hasn't really been redone yet - its one single bar with top shelf and not very efficient. I put a small bookshelf in there, but it hasn't helped much.
Hubby and I split the closet bar and our single dresser. Right now, I have spring/summer things in all my drawers and closet. I have sweaters/scarves in a basket on the top shelf in the closet and have already had to cheat and go in there twice.
I agree it is a hassle, but the only way I see around it is to create more storage in the bedroom (better closet system, dual-purpose furniture, etc), or get rid of some items you dont wear.
