The first step in redesigning your closet is take everything out and sort through it. Anything you haven’t worn in over a year should be given to charity. Check garments for wear and tear. Take care of anything that needs mending. If it is beyond repair, get rid of it. The second step is to install a closet organizer. Choose one that will hold the different types of garments in your wardrobe. The third step is to put items in the closet so that those you wear most often are easy to access. The final step is to stay organized. Put garments back in their appropriate places so that you will be able to find them.

Many of the racial and ethnic groups that live in the Hawaiian Islands today arrived at different times in history. Most of them came to work as laborers on the sugar and pineapple plantations. The first group arrived in the 1850’s, when the Chinese came. They were followed by the Japanese in the 1880’s, and then the Koreans and Filipinos in the early 1900’s. These groups were the last major Asian immigrants to the islands. The immigration process continues today, but now many workers arrive from Mexico and Central America.
