Organizing the Linen Closet

Why do little closets take so long to work on!? I spent hours cleaning, purging, and organizing our linen closet yesterday.

And it looks better! Not amazing, but far better. And I’m definitely enjoying not walking around two full laundry baskets of bedding and towels that had become semi-permanent fixtures in the hallway.

Before and After Linen Closet Organization

Before I started, I looked at the space and thought ‘clearly, I need to take a trip to The Container Store for beautiful bins and baskets.’ Because of course that’s how my mind works. I already had wire baskets leftover from our old IKEA Expedits though, so I added those to the closet.

I went to find them on the site to link, and the newer versions (for Kallax, which replaced the Expedit) are far more stylish! Not helping curb the desire to buy new organizational stuff — even if they do serve the exact same function.

Meh.

This linen closet makeover by Megan Pflug for One Kings Lane is one of my all-time favorites.

Way to make my closet look like crap in comparison, Megan. (I kid. She’s the best.)

But it begs the question: I have to wallpaper another closet in our house now, don’t I? Or break a paint brush out at the very least. Add this one to the 2018 project list.
