I was able to do 4 drawers: a sweater drawer, 2 tshirt drawers and the pj/yoga drawer.
With the sweaters, they were too thick to fold flat and "file" so I had to roll them suitcase style:
The T-shirts are thin enough to fold flat:
The T-shirts would probably have to be rolled if you don't have that many because they only stay up if there are lots to pack together.
Results so far are positive. I like being able to see everything at a glance and it will probably make getting dressed less stressful. I even found a whole giant black garbage bagful of clothes to donate!
I got a new dresser last spring and have organized both my long-sleeved and short-sleeved t-shirts this way. Like you, I'm still looking for a satisfactory way to do the sweaters.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you have a better way to organize sweaters, the roll method works but seems to take up more space.
Delete...good for you!!! Did you buy a new scale yet because you ought to weigh in soon!!!

No not yet, didn't even go to Costco! Maybe next week...
DeleteYou know, I always pack my suitcases this way, but never thought to do the same in my drawers! Excellent idea, I'm going to try it.
ReplyDeleteHey CJ: The best part is that you can see everything vs the regular way where you only see the top layer.
