It's that time of year again: spring cleaning. Which also happens to be the perfect time to organize your linen closet. With all the towels, sheets and various sundries that fill their shelves, things can become a jumbled mess in there rather quickly. So here is a collection of pretty and practical inspiration to help you get — and keep — those linen closets organized during your big spring clean.
The combination of bins, bags and baskets in this linen closet allows for a cohesive look while accommodating the various odds and ends that can be difficult to store.
No more need to pull out everything just to see what's behind. Shallow drawers set on tracks allow for easy access to linens stored in the back. Under-shelf lighting is another clever way to help keep a closet's contents easy to find.
Linen storage need not detract from the look of your home. Take this bathroom, for example. Here, the closet becomes a fabulous focal point with the addition of unique glass front cabinetry.
Have a glass front cabinet and worried that you might not be able to keep your linens display-worthy? Try this little trick and add shirred fabric to the inside of the doors.
Try getting creative with your storage. A wire basket corrals toilet paper while keeping it easily accessible for guests. Glass apothecary jars are the perfect place to stash cotton swabs and Q-tips.
kate skouros THANK YOU! the third pic is just what i needed to see. my new linen closet has plenty of shelving but also floor space i just assumed would be wasted, but putting castors on a legged basket or other container is a great idea and affords even more storage for out of season items.
