If you are feeling cramped with the limited storage space in your home, then you need to look for solutions. Below we have a list of ideas that can help you.
Creating space in small houses is not impossible. All you need is creativity and the ability to make the most of the space you have. We give you some ideas on how you can increase the storage space in your home.
1. The first rule is always (and this applies to all households) to store less, discard things that are unnecessary and reduce clutter. Before you decide to increase the storage space in your home, start processing all these first.
2. Buy furniture that comes with built-in storage. It could be a sofa with storage space under the seat that can be used to store pillows, sheets and throws.
3. If you have space under the stairs, use it as storage space.
4. If there is storage space, install shelves, hooks or even entire cabinets. Make sure that the storage is the same color as the walls so that they blend seamlessly with the aesthetics of the space.
5. Invest in multi-purpose furniture. Think sofa beds, coffee tables with a cavity inside, stools that can be used in different areas of the house, etc.
6. In the bedroom, choose headboards that have hidden storage.
7. In the children's bedroom, choose bunk beds, as this will help create more floor space for play.
8. In the bedroom, choose wardrobes with many folding sections where you can hide pillows, sheets and more.
9. Install a full-length mirror on your closet door so you don't need a separate piece of furniture. This ensures that your room looks bigger as well.
10. Use a bed that can be pulled to the wall so that you save floor space during the day.
11. Use accessories like jars and boxes to store jewelry and food products. You can actually reuse innovative packing boxes to create storage space for small things.
12. Use mounted, collapsible shoe racks that fold into the wall instead of taking up floor space.
13. Consider adding storage under the sink to keep towels and toiletries.
14. Use flexible, foldable furniture that can be folded and stored when not in use.
15. Want to add greenery to your home but don't have the space? Consider creating a vertical garden.
There are many solutions that we can give in our daily life as long as we apply our creativity to the maximum together with positive energy!
