The main organizing principle for linen closet design revolves around shelving specifically designed for the items you need to store and the area where they need to be stored. When planning your closet, standard or glass shelves, pull-out shelves, and cubbies or cubes for rolled linens are all options. It is also critical to avoid stacking items on these shelves too high. Any stack of folded towels, sheets, or other linens should be no higher than twelve to fourteen inches tall. Most blankets and comforters can be stacked only one high on each shelf. Towels of high quality are thick and fluffy; plan on five bath towels per stack.
