So how can you find more room?

Here are five simple ways to make your wardrobe work harder, so you can make the most of your space.

1. Don’t limit under shelf baskets to your kitchen cupboards. Store clothes and accessories in hanging baskets on your shelves and you’ll double the space available.

2. Make the most of the space at the bottom of your wardrobe and store your shoes on stacked shelves. You can easily stack them so they fit snuggly under shirts and jackets.

4. Make the most of any empty wall space in your wardrobe. It might be inside the door, above the door or next to the mirror. Hang a hook or row of hooks and you’ll have instant hanging space that’s perfect for belts, handbags, scarves and necklaces.

5. Add an extender rail in your wardrobe and get more hanging space.
