I'm trying to get my linen closet in order. I have diff color and size towels, spare duvets, and other bulky mismatched items. I thing the best way to keep the closet looking nice, is to put everything into large bins. But I'm having a hard time getting the right sizes to fit my shelf and also maximize the space.
Here are my shelf measurements.
11.2" high, 29.75" wide, 16" deep
(But if the bins are taller than 9.75" I can only use 28.5" in the width because of the wood holding the shelf)
On some shelves I'll want only 2 bins, each almost 15" wide
On some shelves I'll want 3 bins, each almost 10" wide
On some shelves I'll want 4 bins, each almost 7.5" wide

I want the max depth and height so I can maximize the space.
I'd love to have them all matching, or at least coordinating.
I think fabric bins will look best.

Thanks all so much!!

You can fit two of the smallest size of these bins on a shelf.

These are too narrow and will leave me too much dead space. but maybe the largest size will work with the bins hanging off the shelf in the front?

Maybe these?

In the smaller size you can probably squeeze in 3 to a shelf.

Then find a plain gray for the middle shelf.
