Spring is the season of fresh starts—and there’s no better place to begin than your closet. After a long winter of bulky layers and cluttered shelves, your wardrobe is probably due for a seasonal refresh.
At KBR Closet, we believe an organized closet sets the tone for a calmer, more efficient lifestyle. In this post, we’ll walk you through expert-approved tips to declutter, reorganize, and rejuvenate your closet for the spring season.
1. Start with a Full Closet Clean-Out
Out with the Old, Make Room for the New
Before you organize, take everything out of your closet. Yes—everything. Lay items on your bed or the floor and sort them into four piles:
- Keep
- Donate
- Store (for off-season items)
- Toss
This helps you take inventory of what you actually wear and what’s just taking up valuable space.
2. Store Away Winter Clothing
Keep It Clean and Tidy Until Next Season
Bulky coats, boots, and knitwear can be packed away to make room for lighter spring attire. Use under-bed bins, labeled storage boxes, or overhead shelves to store winter clothes. Make sure everything is clean and dry before storing to prevent mold or fabric damage.
Pro Tip: Use vacuum-sealed bags for items like puffers and wool sweaters to save even more space.
3. Refresh with Seasonal Colors and Fabrics
Make Your Closet Feel Like Spring
Swap out dark, heavy fabrics for breathable, bright pieces that reflect the season. Bring your closet to life by:
- Color-coordinating hanging sections
- Displaying floral or pastel pieces front and center
- Using matching velvet or wooden hangers for a streamlined look
This not only makes outfit planning easier but also turns your closet into a space you enjoy walking into.
4. Maximize Visibility and Accessibility
If You Can’t See It, You Won’t Wear It
Spring is the perfect time to reorganize based on how frequently you use items. Keep everyday essentials at eye level, occasional wear up top, and accessories like sunglasses, light scarves, and bags neatly displayed or in pull-out drawers.
5. Deep Clean While You’re at It
Spring Cleaning = Closet Cleaning
Once your closet is empty, take a few minutes to wipe down shelves, vacuum the floor, and dust high corners. Add a natural air freshener or cedar blocks to keep the space smelling clean and fresh.
6. Add Seasonal Storage Accessories
Style Meets Function
Spring is the perfect time to introduce small upgrades like:
- Drawer dividers for light scarves and belts
- Pull-out trays for sunglasses or jewelry
- Baskets or bins for weekend wear and workout gear
At KBR Closet, we can also install modular features that evolve with the seasons—making transitions like this even easier.
