Your shorts, tank tops, and swim suits had their time in the sun. But now\u2019s the time to fall for cozy boots, sweaters, hoodies, and blazers.<\/p>\n
That means you have a job to do. Start to pack up your summer clothing<\/a><\/strong> to make room for your fall wardrobe. Here\u2019s how to get the job done.<\/p>\n Before you pack anything, take a good hard look at the item and make sure it\u2019s something you really want to keep. Did you actually wear it in the summer? Is it in good condition, without stains or tears? Do you still like it? Does it still fit?<\/p>\n If the answer is no to any of the questions, then save yourself time down the road and either discard or donate the item.<\/p>\n The next hurdle is making sure that everything is cleaned before it\u2019s packed away.<\/p>\n The ideal way to pack clothing is in a plastic storage bin, always making sure to remove plastic dry cleaning bags from items. Don\u2019t use moth balls, which can be dangerous to pets or children\u2014and have a very strong scent.<\/p>\n Finally, remember the \u201cCCDD\u201d rule of storage\u2014cool, clean, dark, and dry. Following that rule will prevent fading, as well as mold and mildew.<\/p>\n If you find yourself running out of closet space, ask yourself if uncluttering would help.<\/p>\n If that doesn\u2019t solve your dilemma, consider self storage as a possible solution.
