Your attic is one of those areas that often become a catchall for whatever doesn’t fit on shelves. You can avoid that organizing your closet there: you will use it constantly and it will be organized. Whether you have a large attic with tall ceilings, a slanted attic that’s hard to style, or a tiny attic with limited floor space, these creative attic closet ideas will help you transform your space into hardworking storage.
Convert Your Attic Into A Walk-In Closet
If you have the space, convert your attic into a luxurious walk-in closet, complete with a dresser, pendant light, and built-in shelving. Curate your closet with custom shelving for all of your items, drawers and trays for accessories, and a large mirror. Install additional overhead lighting or hang colorful artwork to complete your walk-in attic closet

Create A Small Corner Closet
Take advantage of the slanted space formed by your home’s roof to create a corner attic closet. Work with the angles of the ceiling to install floating shelves for large items like suitcases and add a freestanding wardrobe rack or a mounted bar for clothes. Eliminate dead space toward the bottom of an attic closet by adding narrow shelves for shoes or a multi-level shoe rack. Just be sure to leave yourself a pathway. Keep the closet open for easy access or consider adding a sliding barn door or pocket door.

Build Attic Shelving
If you have a slanted attic, it can be difficult to make the layout work for your belongings. Build shelving between two walls to create a functional attic closet that isn’t too cramped. Then paint them a neutral color so that they fade into the background. Create a small vanity or dresser section in the middle if you have space, and add a place to sit to make the room cozier.

Add Modular Shelving
One of the best space-savers for slanted attic closets is custom modular shelving. This type of shelving allows for flexibility to account for even the trickiest corners and nooks. Look for store-bought units that let you adjust the shelving heights to your needs. Or for a more permanent solution, build custom shelves to fit your attic closet.
Add a hanging rack to one corner for clothes and a basket underneath for laundry, towels, or blankets. Or if you have a large attic closet, nix the basket and use this spot for a dresser. Opt for fabric bins to store items you rarely use and create a more uniform look.

Save Space With Custom Storage
Save on floor space with wall-mounted racks and shelves. Install wire shelving or floating shelves on an attic wall for storage that doubles as display space. Add fabric storage bins for small accessories and clear shoe display cases to show off your shoes while allowing you to stack items. This open storage works best in finished attics. These are all the tips that might help you to organize your attic, get inspired!
