1. Always store leather shoes with moisture-absorbing cedar shoe trees, to prevent leather cracking and permanent creasing where the toe bends.
   
   
2. Always use a shoe horn when putting on shoes to prevent the back of the shoe from breaking down. Never force feet into the shoes.
   
   
3. Always keep shoes away from direct heat to prevent the leather from drying out. Leather should always dry naturally.
   
   
4. Give shoes a rest between wearings. Leather shoes should have one full day to dry out from natural foot perspiration and should not be worn on two consecutive days.
   
   
5. When polishing shoes, use only a high quality paste or cream that will help moisturize leather and keep it from drying out. Never use a liquid polish on leather shoes.
   
   
6. Never use any type of cleaner that contains an acid or a detergent. Both are damaging to fine leather, and will age the shoe.
   
   
7. If shoes become heavily soiled, use a mild application of mild soap on a damp cloth, wipe off, and allow to dry. Then apply shoe cream. This treatment should restore the original lustre without any damaging effects to the leather.

We probably spend way more time doing laundry than we may like, so it would only make sense to customize your laundry room!

A custom laundry room allows the space and organization you need while taking care of your family's clothing and linens. Added cabinets, cupboards and drawers allow for plenty of room to do your laundry in an organized fashion.

Wine: A wonderful complement to a meal, but not always the easiest thing to store. Wine bottle collections take up space, so people often turn to wine racks to store and display bottles.

Another tricky collection to store is the dish collection. China, decorative plates and other dishes for special occasions can't be store just anywhere. Considering their fragility, dishes must be carefully stored where they will remain safe.

Closets by Design understands that each part of your home has unique requirements, and as organizational experts, we have learned a thing or two about organizing in the home.

Here are some tips on keeping your home clutter-free.

• Address each mess one at a time
• For every one new item you purchase, get rid of an old one.
• Envision how you want the room to look when you are finished
• Use a hanger system to determine which clothes you wear most
• Ask yourself if you really need something. If you hesitate, you don't.
• Create three boxes for items (Keep, Toss, Donate) to sort items.

Here is what a Washington, DC ClosetsbyDesign customer had to say about their recent purchase...

"I am writing this letter today to acknowledge the exemplary work of Aimon and Charlie who were the installers for my recent purchase of ClosetsbyDesign.  They installed the closets as if they were installing them in their own homes.  They paid extreme attention to detail and worked after hours in order to get things right.  Cathy Kling's Excellent design required some customizing on-site which they demonstrated a high degree of knowledge about the product in order to achieve results that not only I was satisfied with but that they were also. 

Your team of designer and installers took great pride in production a product that I would be pleased to have in my hoe.  I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend ClosetsbyDesign to any potential customer."

A happy Closets by Design customer writes...

"I am tickled beyond words with how they turned out.  It's amazing that such big pieces have actually made the place look bigger!  Kudos to the installation crew.  Most Professional and thorough team I have seen in a long time.  We have had a lot of work done by other companies and this crew far exceeded all others."

A customer raves about a wall unit of perfection...

"As a repeat customer of a few years ago,  I just want to thank you so much for your outstanding craftmanship in creating a wall unit of perfection for my basement.   A little over 2 years ago,  I had called Closets by Design (had a coupon) and you came out to my home to design a solution for a closet and a wall unit in my front bedroom.. I was so thrilled with the entire project that I did not hesitate to call and ask for you when my basement needed a wall unit.   And, I must add that it was quite a challenge due to the low ceiling and a wall vent, not to mention other oddities with the floor to ceiling measurements.  As you did with the other project, you have, crafted a beautiful design, with all the perks and then some, that I had wanted.  You are a true professional and I highly recommend you. Should anyone ever want to talk to me, please refer them to me.   I will advise them of your outstanding work, and your genuine passion to design a work of art for each of your customers.

People have commented on the work you did in my bedroom. Watch out with the basement unit!!!"
