Last but certainly not least is the cleaning closet. Ironically, the one closet responsible for cleaning the entire house needs to be cleaned and organized but that often is the case.
What I particularly love is the hanging storage bag with all the different compartments.
I love the idea of taking the doors off of a closet and using a curtain – makes more space in the room AND makes it easier to maneuver within the closet!
