Having the closet crowded may seem like an advantage from the point of view choice of options, because it means that there are many clothes to choose from every day. However, it is very impractical.
And when this happens, it takes more time to identify and remove each piece. Not to mention how overwhelming are the places where clutter and lack of space reigns. To avoid this, try to buy only what you are going to use and follow these steps.

When is a closet considered to be crowded?
Before you start, make sure that your closet actually needs a lightening. The clearest signal is when a finger does not fit in the space between each of the pieces that are hung on the bar. The goal is to fit one finger (two if possible) so you can see and handle them more easily.
Take out the pieces you no longer use
There are two main reasons to stop using certain garments and accessories. It may be because the piece in question has become out of date, or simply because your size has changed in recent years. In any case, if you no longer use them, the smartest thing is to keep them from taking up precious space in your closet.
Separate by seasons
Keeping in a privileged place the garments that we will not use in several months is unadvisable if we want to get a more spacious wardrobe. So consider separating your clothes by seasons (autumn/winter and spring/summer) and leaving only the pieces relative to the present season. Get the rest out.
Keep in boxes what you’ve taken out

Now it’s time to take care of everything you’ve been taking care of. Store it in plastic boxes or empty travel cases. Put them under the bed (or in some recess in the same closet, if there is space left) until the change of season. With regard to what you no longer use, you can do the same if you think you will have the opportunity to take advantage of it in the future. If not, consider donating it.
