Hanging Belt Storage: Throwing Ya’ll For a Loop
March 12, 2014
Here on the Tie Racks Blog, we tend to stick to discussing ways to store your ties and other formal attire. While it may seem like a bit of a banal subject to base an entire blog on, that is not true. In fact, it is a very banal subject to base an entire blog on! So today instead of talking about tie storage, I am going to go off the beaten track a bit and talk about hanging belt storage.
Hopefully I do not alienate my dedicated Tie Rack fan base by going off of the beaten path a bit. If you are offended by this excursion into the world of belt storage, please bear with me. I assure you that there is much to be gleaned when it comes to hanging belt storage and the ways in which it can make your life easier.
Nothing is worse than not knowing where your belt is. Unlike a tie, which is easy to forgo, going beltless can be a huge mistake. First of all, many of us have pants that are a size too big, or maybe even more if you have recently lost weight. In these cases a belt is absolutely mandatory for everyday attire. If you cannot find your belt you could be looking at a world of hurt. In fact, I have seen people improvise with belts made from rope, internet cables and even file clips!
Of course, these jerry-rigged belts are certainly the furthest from being formal wear. In fact, this is something you would expect to see in some backwater small-town where the only issue of GQ you can find is a 6 year old quarterly fashion report in the dentist-slash-plumber’s office. You definitely do not want to come off as being of this mindset, right? In order to avoid this embarrassing look, just use hanging belt storage in your closet to keep looking sharp.
For those that need to upgrade their hanging belt storage, look no further than the Cedar Belt Keeper. This belt rack offers four hooks, which should be plenty of space to store all of your belts.
Shelf Dividers Increase Storage for a Cramped Closet
February 28, 2014
My new apartment is pretty low on storage space – this was a bit of an issue when it was just me and my wife. But just a few weeks ago we introduced the newest member of our family – and she brought a whole lot of things that need to be stored with her! No we didn’t get a new roommate, we welcomed our first daughter into the world. But man, she has a lot of onesies, pajamas, hats and socks! In order to make the most of the shelving space we had, I looked into some shelf dividers. These dividers were able to organize and maximize the efficiency of my shelves.
Shelf dividers are a great addition to any closet or open storage shelf. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, as well as a variety of costs and features. I did not need anything all that fancy, and I was looking to spend as little money as possible.
Luckily there are some excellent options for organizing your shelving with dividers. From wood shelf dividers to metal shelf dividers, there is a accessory for any situation. The shelf divider I ended up going with is the simple yet effective Closet Shelf Dividers.
This shelf divider set includes two dividers, making it easy to increase the efficiency of your shelf. These dividers make it easier to create small stacks of items such as clothing without worrying about them collapsing to the ground because there was not enough support.
Another great feature of these shelf dividers is that they are made from durable fabric with a strong metal frame. The brackets are designed to slide over most wooden shelving.
Overall these shelf dividers were huge game changers for our home, increasing the efficiency of our storage options.
