Product of the Week: Cedar Shelf Liners

Cedar wood has many benefits that are complementary to clothes. So it’s no wonder that people sometimes line their entire closet with cedar planks. A custom closet can be expensive, though, so how can we all get a taste of this luxurious type of clothes storage and preservation?

These cedar shelf liners provide an affordable alternative to custom closet work, and are compatible with wire closet organizers, a very popular and widespread choice for closets everywhere today. No installation is required, so you don’t have to hire a contractor to get them. They simply drop into place on most wire closet shelves. Read on for some natural benefits that cedar has to offer.

• Aroma – anyone who has been around cedar furniture, logs, or even trees knows that heavenly woodsy scent they give off. The cedar aroma helps to counteract any stale odors that may be lingering in the closet, whether from dampness, dirty clothes, smoke, etc. (This, by the way, is why shoe racks are often made of cedar)

• Insect Repellent – Cedar is a natural insect repellent, great for closets and other areas where moths and other insects can be a problem. So, if you like to stack your wool sweaters and clothes in the closet for easy access, but don’t want to be forced to replace them all the time because of holes and other damage, cedar is the way to go!

• All Natural – unlike other products like chemical mothballs and air fresheners, cedar is 100% natural, a perfect choice in today’s world where we are all trying our best to “go green”. If you have children or pets, rest assured that you are not compromising their health with chemicals.

• Beautiful – let’s face it, wire shelves are not exactly closet eye candy! Lining drab white coated wire closet organizers with red cedar wood will go a long way towards giving you that custom closet look, at a fraction of the price.

TIP: With any unfinished cedar product, you can refresh the aroma very easily with a very fine sandpaper once or twice a year. Keep in mind, though, that whites and very light colors can absorb color from raw cedar. Consider covering the cedar with a towel first - you still get all the same benefits.
