Real Simple's Editorial Guidelines Published on September 22, 2020 Share Tweet Pin Email On their new Netflix show Get Organized, Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin from The Home Edit organize cluttered homes across America. Each episode features one celebrity and one regular family, and in the first episode of the series, they start out strong: with a makeover of Reese Witherspoon's closet. And it's not just any closet, it's a showcase closet of her costumes and memorabilia. The iconic pink Legally Blonde suit, award show dresses, and outfits from Big Little Lies all get a spot. As The Home Edit team carefully displays each garment, purse, and even a stuffed animal version of Bruiser, they present tons of clever closet organizing ideas that anyone can use—even if you aren't stashing couture gowns. Here are five organizing ideas from Reese Witherspoon's closet that we'd like to steal for our own homes. How to Organize Your Closet in 30 Minutes Flat 01 of 04 Invest in Purse Hangers Container Store Acrylic Purse Hooks, $15 each, containerstore.com One of the most memorable parts of the first episode (well, at least to all the organizing aficionados out there), was when The Home Edit displays Witherspoon's prized purses on sturdy acrylic hooks. Rather than crowd designer bags together on a shelf, each handbag now has its own designated spot.In your own closet, use these hooks to hold those favorite handbags you reach for most often. 02 of 04 Label Everything (Including Your Hangers) The Container Store Closet Labels, $10, containerstore.com When The Home Edit team brought out out the customized labels for the hangers holding each of Witherspoon's award show gowns, viewers instantly realized what their closets were missing. After The Home Edit co-founder Clea Teplin turned her handwriting into her own personalized font, the company started using the font for all the labels in their projects. Good news for those with poor penmanship: you can buy standard labels in Teplin's signature font from the Container Store, or you can order customized labels on their website. 03 of 04 Use Clear Drawers to Stash Accessories Container Store Portrait Acrylic Paper Drawer, $25, containerstore.com To corral Witherspoon's accessories—and keep them out where they're easy to find—The Home Edit used transparent stacking drawers.
