The 7 Step Rock Your Closet Blog will give your closet a full makeover in 7 simple steps!!
I’ll be sharing everything you need to get your master closet re-organized and ready for a fresh start.
This is not just about cleaning; it's about revolutionizing your space and having a blast while doing it.
TASK 1: LAUNDRY & MAKING DECISIONS
You'll love what you can do when you break it down into smaller steps
1. Take before photos of your closet.
Make sure to get multiple angles. (You'll appreciate these on Task 7!)
2. Pull out anything you can easily see that doesn't belong in your closet.
Trash, dirty clothes, and any other stuff that has crept into your closet that you no longer want to keep there.
3. Wash your laundry.
No need to put it away today, just start getting it clean.
4. Put away anything you pulled out that you know where it goes.
Just one small step at a time you'll be surprised how fast you're done, Beautiful.
TASK 2: EASY CLOTHING DECISIONS!
1. Pull out all the hanging clothes in your closet
I know it's tempting to make decisions while they're still hanging, but you'll have a much easier time and make better decisions if you pull them all out of the closet.
2. Make decisions on the clothes you pulled out
Also include any clean hanging clothes from the laundry you finished.
3. Hang up the clothes you want to keep
All the clothes you're keeping can be hung back up in your closet.
4. Prepare any clothes you're letting go of
Bag up any donations & throw away any garbage.
Remember - don't focus on the project as a whole, only focus on the one step you're working on. It's soooo much easier that way!!!

Your Small Steps:
1. Pull out any folded clothes. Grab any piles of folded clothes from both the closet and your clean laundry and put them in a good sorting area such as your bed.
2. Make decisions on your folded clothes using the "Friends Method." If you don't know the "Friends Method" for clothing decisions check out the video replay from the 2024 Rock Your Closet Challenge here: https://www.youtube.com/live/LAd4NcuZfW8

TASK 4: ACCESSORIES! SHOES, PURSES & ACCESSORIES FOR THE WIN
Those shoes are made for walking...Ready to ROCK this
These unique items in your closet can make your outfits amazing, but can also be tough to make decisions on & find space. Let's fix that!!
1. Pull out all your shoes, purses & accessories.
You can pull out one category at a time & make decisions, just make sure to actually pull them all out to purge & analyze.
