Ep 058: Under-the-Stairs Closet Organization

This week I’m talking about how to organize that awkwardly shaped closet under your stairs for our third week of the Spring Cleaning Series (now affectionately known as the “We can do better!” Series). After a quick recap of the beginning episodes in April about countertops & entryways, I discuss how to get this storage closet organized in 3 simple steps!  Whether it’s being used for holiday decor, memorabilia storage, an activity closet, your luggage and surfboard collection, an adorable kid cave for book reading and making sweet memories, or a catch-all for everything you own, it should definitely be working best for you and your family!  Using The 3 E’s Philosophy, let’s maximize that space to its fullest potential and have your future self thanking you for investing the time in a good purge, donation of unused items, and outfitting it with the proper organization!  Highlights from this episode: {2:38} Summary of the last two episodes in the April spring cleaning series {8:38} Purging your under the stairs closet {9:01} Organizing this space for your future self {13:01} Having a yard sale {14:32} Mounting longer items onto the tallest part of the space {15:11} Thinking about what you'll need to use the soonest {16:14} Organizing a smaller under the stairs closet {17:23} The Elfa shelving system {19:37} Using over the door organizers {21:37} Organizing sentimental items in your closet {22:29} Using this space as a fun kid cave   Mentioned on this episode:   Ep 1: The 3 E’s Philosophy    Ep 6: Maximize Your Vertical Space   Ep 7: The Essential Purge   Ep 22: A Successful Yard Sale   Ep 34: Help Your Future Self   Ep 56: Clear Those Countertops    Ep 57: A Welcoming Entryway    Elfa Shelving System from The Container Store *GIVEAWAY!!!
