PROFESSIONAL ORGANISER VICKY SILVERTHORN SORTS THE HALLWAY...

HAVE A CLEAR OUT

Often we mistake a hall that doesn’t work with one that is simply too full. Storing coats and shoes from several seasons means double the space is taken up. Before you plan a total redesign, or start buying new storage, remove what won’t be needed and store it elsewhere so you can see exactly what you are contending with.

CHECK MEASUREMENTS

Buying storage solutions that are too small, or that look pretty but aren’t practical, cause problems. A slimline shoe caddy might look great online but when it doesn’t fit a pair of size twelves, it becomes no use at all!
