Rozelle Wardrobe Decluttering
The family: Rozelle based family of four (two busy executives and two school aged children).
The problem: Just had new built in’s put in throughout the house but had too many clothes and still felt like had nothing to wear. Disorganised children’s rooms causing stressful mornings getting ready for school.
The solution: Colour analysis and wardrobe declutter and reorganise. Children’s rooms decluttered and reorganised. School uniform clearly separated to make finding things easier.
Less is so much more in both adults and kids wardrobes
Top tips for wardrobe decluttering
-
Focus on what you love, what fits and colour: Decluttering your wardobe focussing only on what you love and wear can transform your wardrobe into something really beautiful. I’ve always believed understanding your colour palette is a must. When you know what colours suit you, you can build a wardrobe around this. I love to organise wardrobes by colour so they pop at you making you feel inspired and excited to put together an outfit each day.

Add structure: Giving your children structure in their wardrobes and drawers (by adding dividers) can definitely help dial down the stress levels in the morning. When they can see all their things clearly it makes getting ready easier whilst also teaching them good organisation skills which will help them later in life.
-
Stack clothes vertically: most people fold clothes and lay them on top of each other, the problem with this is you can’t see and it gets messy as you pull things out from the bottom. Learning to file fold or rolling your clothes is worth the time investment. It will stop your drawers becoming cluttered and you’ll be able to find things quickly.
-
Get your kids involved: When your kids are old enough get them involved in decluttering. Agree on a place in their room where they can put things that no longer fit or that they don’t wear rather than throwing them back in the cupboard. Diarise regular times to declutter, each school holidays ask the kids to aim to remove 25% of what’s in their room.
