I don’t know about you, but few things compel me from the quiet warmth of my comforter at 6 a.m.—not even the premeditated shriek of my alarm. I mastered the reach-and-snooze motion in high school, and have since trained myself into a last-minute Olympian, an expert in racing the clock when you’re running behind. This worked just fine up until my late twenties as a young professional in Portland, Oregon. Getting ready in the morning was a snap—literally. I’d just snap on the first thing I coordinated, and motion towards the door. But since moving to New York two years ago for a new job, my lifestyle has changed.

Like a confusing prank from Alice in Wonderland, it feels as if my room has shrunken, while my belongings have grown. My apartment is half the size of my old place, and my closet is a fraction of its former self. This wreaked havoc on my late-riser antics. Suddenly, finding tops to match skirts, jackets for the shifting weather and right pair of slacks became a treasure hunt—where were they?

My closet was overwrought with haphazard stacks and disorganized piles, with disproportionate vertical space only heightening the problem. My dressing disasters consistently made me late for morning meetings and important calls with clients. I was given two warnings from my manager. I needed a morning solution stronger than coffee: I needed a closet organizer system.

A colleague suggested the melamine custom closets at Hold N Storage. The smart combinations of shelving, shoe racks and wire add-ons transformed my closet, taking advantage of the high ceilings and making every corner count for storage. I haven’t changed my snooze-and-rise antics—and I’ve been early to work every day this week. I can’t recommend custom closets enough.

Investing in closet hangers is a great way to get organized, but some people need a little more help to keep their clothing in order. Fortunately, www.HoldNStorage.com offers a variety of closet hanger accessories, which offer storage solutions for items of all kinds.

Let’s take a look at some of our favorite closet accessories:

Over the Door Hooks: Perfect for college students and renters, these hooks can fit over most entry and closet doors for additional hanging space without any installation. Over the door hooks are available in all shapes and sizes, from single hangers to stacked units.

Wall-Mounted Racks: For some serious storage, it doesn’t get any better than mounted racks, which are sturdy enough for heavy coats and jackets, as well as bathrobes and towels. Choose a mahogany rack for a luxurious look that will enhance any room.

Valet Bars: No you see them, now you don’t! Valet bars provide convenient extra storage for closet organizer systems, ideal for hanging recently laundered items. Attach the frame to a shelf or wall, then slide and retract the rod as needed.

Like closet organizer systems for the bedroom, bathroom storage units are essential to organizing your toiletries and other bathroom items. Let’s take a look at two of our favorite bathroom storage options:

Shower and Tub Caddies: Most showers and bathtubs include some space to store your shampoo, soap, and other supplies, however this is usually not enough – especially if said shower or tub serves more than one person. To expand your storage options, we recommend a shower or bathtub caddy. These useful tools can be as big or as small as you want, from a stainless steel soap basket to a two-tear caddy featuring additional hooks for razors and loofahs.

Hair Care Storage: Unlike most bathroom supplies, hair products like blow dryers and curling irons pretty much have to stay dry. Depending on the size and layout of your bathroom, you might invest in bathroom storage units designed to adhere directly to the wall, or portable totes that you can remove from the bathroom once you’re finished teasing and setting.

You can find these bathroom storage units and more at www.HoldNStorage.com!

If you’ve decided to invest in a wicker laundry hamper, congratulations! These excellent products can help you stay organized while providing a touch of class to any bedroom or laundry area. But a laundry sorter hamper is only one step on your road to organization – let’s take a look at some other great laundry products you can find at www.HoldNStorage.com.

Drying Racks & Clotheslines: Mechanical driers are well suited for drying towels, sheets, and most cotton clothing, however not all of your delicates can survive such a cycle. Drying racks and clotheslines are affordable, safe tools that can help you dry your delicates – plus, most of them are easily folded up for storage.

Ironing Supplies: Nothing can ruin a pair of freshly washed pants like a whole lot of wrinkles. Even if you’re not interested in ironing all of your clothing, it’s good to have an iron and ironing board around to smooth out the worst creases. Hold N Storage offers a wide selection of ironing board styles, including standard, over-the-door, and tabletop boards.

Laundry Bags: Even if you already own a laundry sorter hamper, laundry bags can be helpful for transporting your clothes to the laundromat or drycleaner, or for vacations. There are plenty of different styles and colors to choose from, ensuring that you’ll find a laundry bag to match your personality.
