Storage always seems to be in short supply no matter how big or small your living space is. Isn’t it amazing how your stuff multiplies to fill the space? Never worry if you don’t have ample closet space! You can do wonders with our tips for clever furniture choices, utilizing space efficiently, and keeping organized.
Choosing Furniture
If you’re in the market for new furniture, pick the right pieces to maximize your space. For example, many bed frames come with built in drawers beneath them. Why waste all the space beneath your bed? These bed frames are still beautiful, but can add a tremendous amount of space. You could also buy an ottoman, desk, or bench with storage space.
Using Space Efficiently
Another key to staying organized and clutter free is to use space well. For example, if your laundry closet is small, consider hanging a pocket holder on the door to store all your household cleaners, dryer sheets and more to save room on the shelves for other things. Use mounted spice racks on cabinet doors. You can also hang hooks on walls or in closets for hats, coats, umbrellas, and more. Have room for a pot hanger? This can be classy looking and save you tons of cupboard space.
Keep Organized
It’s important to give everything a place. That way it’s at least possible for everything to go somewhere other than your floor. One great idea is to keep desk and kitchen drawers organized with storage containers and bins. You can get creative and use things like paper towel holders or pants hangers to store ribbon. The sky is the limit, but everything should have a home.
