As the cooler weather approaches here in Louisiana, it's time to switch from those summer clothes and bring winter clothes to the front of the closet. This is a time consuming task; yet it can be done more efficiently and less painfully with organization. Consolidating your closet with a system designed by Louisiana Custom Closets will make this semi-annual chore much more agreeable for everyone.

As summer comes to an end and autumn slowly takes over, it will soon be time to put away the garden tools and all the outdoor sports items, and exchange them for all the winter gear we will need. September is the best time to organize the garage to create more space for everything before the cooler weather arrives. Because Southern Louisiana homes usually have no basements or attics, most everything unnecessary is stored in the garage. Why not take the time to maximize space with a new round of organization?

Most homeowners across Southern Louisiana spend too much time in their closets looking for a favorite shirt or something to wear for work or school.  That’s because closets are often the most common areas of disorganization, filled with items that are not used or even wanted. Yet, there they hang for all to see. According to recent studies, most people wear only 20% of the clothes in their closet. Consumers need to remember that very important percentage when they assess storage areas and closet space. Is it time to get it organized?

After a typical stop at the local grocery store across Southeastern Louisiana, most people will randomly place the non-perishable food items on the shelves in the pantry closet. This often ill-fated strategy makes for major disorganization. The next time the person heads to the storage area, several minutes is often spent looking for that cream of chicken soup needed for dinner. The can is mixed in and behind several other items. Being organized and efficient saves issues and makes sense in every aspect of food and pantry storage.
