Laundry Closet Organizer

I like to hang my clothes up as soon as they come out of the dryer to help cut back on the amount of ironing I have to do. So in order to keep my hangers at hand, I hung 2 wooden closet rods in my laundry closet. One in the back, just above the washer & dryer, high enough so that I can hang my empty hangers on it. And a second one near the front but in far enough and up high enough so that I could hang clothes on it and still be able to close the closet door. It also makes a great place for out of town guests to hang some of their clothes in an easily accesible place if you don't have enough rooms for a designated guest room or the rest of your closets are jammed full like mine are!
