Storage can be created in a variety of ways to maximize limited space. From multi-purpose furniture to using items in new ways, the opportunities are endless.
2. Endless
opportunities
exist to build new
storage or to use
ordinary items in
unexpected ways
to create extra
storage. Utilizing
the right tips and
tools can reveal
significant space
in a home.
3. The bedroom is often the
room with the greatest
need for maximum
storage but is usually
limited to a closet and
dressers. Add height to
your bed with risers for
extra room to store
containers and boxes
underneath. Alternatively,
purchase or build a bed
frame with built-in
shelves or drawers.
4. Save jewelry boxes
of various sizes to
create divided
storage for pens and
pencils, make-up,
flatware, batteries,
or whatever else
clutters a drawer.
Another option is to
use fancier jewelry
boxes in plain sight
to store various
items and eliminate
the dreaded junk
drawer entirely.
5. In addition to serving as extra seating or a foot rest, an ottoman can provide extra
storage. Versions with under-lid storage can neatly stash blankets, pillows, board
games, or books. Ottomans come in a variety of sizes and can be upholstered to
match a room’s décor—a very stealthy storage solution, indeed.
6. Hang necklaces
and bracelets on a
wall-mounted coat
rack. Not only will
they be easily
accessible, but
they’ll stay tangle-
free. Alternatively,
mount corkboard
on a wall and
drape jewelry from
straight pins. This
version of storing
pretty items in
plain sight works
as part of the
room’s décor.
7. Use an adaptable
pegboard to organize
a garage. The board
will keep items like
sports equipment,
tools, and safety gear
tidy. The size of the
holes directly impacts
the weight the hooks
can hold. A
recommended hole
size is 1/4-inch
because it holds a
solid amount of
weight. Items will be
stored off the floor
and easy to find.
8. Plastic containers
and lids are a
difficult kitchen
item to stack and
store. A metal CD
rack is great at
keeping lids
upright and easily
seen. Larger lids
should be towards
the back and
smaller lids in the
front so they’re in
easy view.
9. Shoe organizers, both hanging and standalone, can be used in countless ways.
Options include using them in a laundry room for cleaning supplies, in a garage for
spray paint or tools, a kids’ room for toys, or in a closet for scarves, socks, and
shoes. Hanging organizers take up unused door space instead of limited closet and
cupboard space and their versatility makes them a smart choice overall.
