I have it all planned out in my head. I want a window seat, too, full of cushions and blankets where I can read next to the rain.

I would appreciate any little tips you could put up as you fix up your apartment as i&#39;ll be doing exactly the same! can&#39;t wait to see photos inside your flat!Emmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17702945430432087715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-53371926286299043772009-09-29T20:28:34.104-05:002009-09-29T20:28:34.104-05:00Haha, I come from a mom obsessed with clothing rotation, &amp; I must say it is pretty tiresome! She shares a stand-in closet, a chest of drawers &amp; a sweater trunk with my father, &amp; he is ready to tear his hear out!<br /><br />I am still a college kid, but I definitely stole my parent&#39;s sweater trunk idea. I use the trunk I used years ago in summer camp, &amp; roll it under my bed. I have my sweaters pretty well in my head, &amp; I just rotate the summer/winter sweaters according to the season &amp; separate them with a towel.<br /><br />I, too hang my jewelry- [ http://www.flickr.com/photos/chlorinebeach/2191593210/ ]. I call it instant art &amp; group other pretties next to my earrings... by this point that hanger is jammed full! I also stick tacks in the wall &amp; dangle my necklaces off it, absolutely better than a tangle. <br /><br />I keep my other jewelry in these- [ http://www.heritagemint.com/jump.jsp?itemID=288&amp;itemType=PRODUCT&amp;path=1%2C2%2C7%2C52&amp;iProductID=288 ] each different kind of thing (rings, bracelets, pins, etc) goes in a different box, &amp; then all the boxes get stacked inside the big box on my dresser. True, I spread the boxes out all over the bed every morning, but cleanup is fairly simple &amp; it keeps the jewelry somewhat less spread out than it could be. Plus it makes moving super-easy.<br /><br />Sorry this has gone on for so long... I definitely love all of these photos! Hooray for closet aspirations!Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02709377893502729103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-30644646231862808652009-09-29T18:38:38.937-05:002009-09-29T18:38:38.937-05:00I can only dream! My closet is probably as tiny (in relation) as your apartment! I am managing with hanging my clothes, but there is NO room to hang anything else on the walls. I have over-the-door shoe storage, plus shoe boxes stacked neatly on the shelf (I need a cute shoe cubby like that closet!). If I had a walk-in, you bet it would be as cute as some of these! <br /><br />Good luck organizing yours!<br /><br /> ~ Jenniferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12809397616829044745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-40706671400010872582009-09-29T18:32:50.906-05:002009-09-29T18:32:50.906-05:00I hang up my necklaces- works so much better then storing them in a box. I also suggest investing in a bracelet storage thing- you can get them at Michaels.<br /><br />I also love the library. I tell people if I was rich I would have a library full of books and big comfy chairs.

It&#39;s cheap, works great and you can see everything. I never have a tangle!!<br /><br />I also hang my clothes in color groups so it makes for easy outfit-making and quick mornings, which is good for me since I don&#39;t do mornings very well!!Colleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13174256405970347756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-14598051163017007732009-09-29T13:48:32.745-05:002009-09-29T13:48:32.745-05:00Ooh, I really really like the library closet! Our storing spaces are shamelessly small, so I believe in Ikea organization, where everything is foldable and light (with our next move on my mind...). I&#39;m the last person to give organization tips, but I really like the idea of hanging your jewelery somewhere visible, since it is pretty to look at even when you&#39;re not wearing it..Zhttp://unrealtomorrow.net/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-36735864692969987662009-09-29T13:47:20.598-05:002009-09-29T13:47:20.598-05:00I put my bed on raisers so now i store the opposite season underneath the bed, along with shoes.Leilahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02813610793710795580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-20323216106674371952009-09-29T13:07:45.606-05:002009-09-29T13:07:45.606-05:00Love the closet inspirations, especially the one with the hanging jewelry.

I love the library closet, my own closets are less organised. They&#39;re used after the principle that what is buried is not seen. If you listen carefully you will hear things growling in there. <br /><br />I go through them occasionaly though. Me and ebay are good friends.Jessikahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15132049392554019770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-48923602833429057992009-09-29T10:30:27.929-05:002009-09-29T10:30:27.929-05:00I TOTALLY have those skates with the pink wheels! They live in their awesome pink trunk though ;)<br /><br />I covet the library closet too but I can&#39;t wait to see some pictures of your painted, primped up closet! Adorable! It makes me want to paint my closet too! I wish it was a walk-in... Ikea is a great deal for wood hangers if there is one nearby (not so great if you have to pay shipping though) and I found an awesome shoe rack at Target. So good luck and post pictures!Anne (in Reno)http://www.blogger.com/profile/02980087155991051007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-41339910155052188952009-09-29T10:13:02.149-05:002009-09-29T10:13:02.149-05:00i wish i still had rollerskates! and that my house was this lovely *sigh*jillian-annehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13599573405201853656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2258898549308554189.post-7189069435654230912009-09-29T10:10:40.209-05:002009-09-29T10:10:40.209-05:00My closet is in dire shape.

I love the look of the first one especially. I&#39;ve found that it&#39;s helpful to purge any old or unused items before attempting to organize. It helps to cut down on clutter, especially if you&#39;re working with a small space. From there, I divide into categories (scarves, shoes, jewelry, clothes, etc.), then group similar colors and styles together so that I can find things easily. Good luck!AnalieseMariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18107016553728679066noreply@blogger.com
