14 Versatile Accessories for Organizing Your Custom Closets

Hanging Clothes and Accessories

A closet's primary purpose is to organize hanging clothes and accessories. Custom solutions can effortlessly maximize the space, function, and beauty of your closet.

1. Hooks

Hooks are one of the most versatile closet accessories. Having a variety of hooks improves the organization and look of your closet. Plus, they're available in a wide range of colors. Look at investing in:

• 3-way hooks
• Belt hooks
• Coat hooks
• Double hooks
• Tie hooks
• Waterfall hooks

2. Pull-Out Pants Racks

Pants can develop unsightly wrinkles if stored improperly. You'll never have to worry about ironing your pants twice when you store them on a pants rack. Even better, invest in a pull-out pants rack for maximum storage and accessibility.

3. Storage Racks

One of the best ways to preserve the beauty and integrity of your clothes and accessories is with proper storage. Bring in separate storage racks for scarves, belts, pants, and ties. Your wardrobe will be organized, accessible, and kept in tip-top shape.

4. Custom Rods

A closet isn't complete without rods for your hanging items. In your custom closet, you can choose the finest details, including the finish of your rods! While it might seem insignificant, custom rods can tie a space together. Who wouldn't want more space for a couple of extra tops or blazers?

Drawers and Shelves

Closets with drawers and shelves are also essential elements of a closet storage system. They can maximize your functional space and beautifully organize your clothes and accessories. 

5. Custom Drawers

Unlike standard, shallow drawers, custom drawers are deep enough to hold clothes without stuffing and wrinkling them. Adding a lingerie drawer will keep your unmentionables organized and untangled.

6. Divided Shelves

Divided shelves come in handy for organizing clothes, purses, and other accessories, while giving your closet a supremely organized feel. 

7. Jewelry Storage and Organizers

Care for your treasured jewelry by storing it properly and safely in a custom jewelry drawer. Consider jewelry drawers lined with velvet that have functional compartments to prevent tangling and beautifully display your shiny collection of gems.

8. Sliding Baskets and Shelves

No more rummaging through your clothes and disturbing your carefully folded laundry! Sliding baskets and shelves give you greater storage and accessibility than standard baskets and shelves. Make room for sliding storage options including sliding scarf racks, belt racks, and tie racks.

Laundry

Dirty laundry can clutter your closet, floor, and bedroom furniture. But when you have a properly-organized closet, you have space for adding other custom elements, such as a laundry storage system.

9. Hampers

Hampers are an excellent way to collect and conceal dirty laundry. Plus, they come in various styles, including:

• Tilted
• Pull-out
• Divided compartments for whites and darks

10. Laundry Valet Rods

A laundry valet rod is similar to a hook and functions as a temporary place to hang freshly ironed clothes, gather clothes for a trip, and selecting your attire for the next day. Valet rods conveniently retract when not in use.

11. Fold-Out Ironing Boards

It's a hassle to pull out a full-sized ironing board and carefully transport freshly ironed clothes from the laundry room to your closet. A fold-out ironing board allows you to conveniently iron your clothes and immediately hang them in your closet.

Shoe Storage

In a standard closet, storing shoes is a hassle. But with custom closet solutions, storing shoes is a work of art!

12. Angled Shoe Shelves

A classic solution, angled shoe shelves keep your shoes off the floor and upright, giving your closet a tidy appearance and keeping your shoes accessible.

13. Shoe Organizer

Another standard solution is wire shoe organizers that securely hold up to 15 pairs of shoes, further maximizing your storage potential.

14. Storage Baskets

If you're a shoe-lover with many pairs of shoes, you can store seasonal or less-used shoes in storage baskets so your closet remains tidy without the extra clutter.

Conclusion

There are many versatile closet accessories on the market today, from hooks and racks to drawers, shelves, and shoe storage. With a custom closet, they are literally all at your fingertips as you design your dream wardrobe space.
