Walk-in closets are the epitome of luxury. While, yes, they’re a great place to store your clothes, shoes and accessories, walk-in closets can also become a respite from the rest of your house (if done right). But even if you have tons of space to work with, it’s easy for your things to get scrambled, especially if there isn’t a proper organization system in place. That’s where these inspiring walk-in closet ideas come into play.
Whether you’re looking to transform part of your bedroom into a walk-in closet or revamp what you already have, we’ve got plenty of ideas to help you make the most of your space, big or small. Keep in mind that there are two main factors to consider: the room’s style and function. Along with finding an inviting design, it’s equally as important to go with an efficient layout and organization system to create a sense of order, whether it’s with baskets, color-coded shelves or additional storage solutions. (Psst, get even more smart closet organization tips here.)

Baskets High and Low
Use baskets to give everything a home. Keep anything that you may reach for more frequently in the lower baskets and put any off-season items up high.

Jewelry Wall
Instead of using jewelry boxes, drawers or shelves for your accessories, try hanging them on an empty wall. This makes it easier to showcase the pieces you own and find the perfect one to wear.

Accessories on Display
The way you place accessories on shelves can determine the closet’s overall look. Install light strips throughout to illuminate your collection.

Color-Coded Shelves
Color-coding your closet is appealing to the eye, but it also makes picking out an outfit so much easier. Hang a neon sign in a vibrant hue to personalize and brighten the space.
