And how to put things in the closet?

Having talked about how to fold T-shirts correctly, one cannot help but recall precisely that after that they must be hidden somewhere from all prying eyes:

1. In order to put all things together, it is enough to have just a closet with shelves, as well as self-control and patience.
2. In practice, it turns out that for storing things, it will also be worthwhile to purchase special modules that can be easily hung directly in your closet.
3. Regardless of whether you have these additional modules or not, there is one important secret to maintaining order inside your cabinet. The space of each shelf must be divided in half, as well as to distribute things by season. At the edges - winter, demi-season items, for example, T-shirts, as well as T-shirts are located closer to the middle, but things with long sleeves are located as far away from the center as possible.
4. If you have a lot of things, and there is not enough space in the closet for all this wealth, try just twisting the knitted T-shirts with rolls. They will not wrinkle during such storage and it will be more convenient to place them on shelves. The same method can be used to properly pack a suitcase or travel bag.
