Top Ten Tips for making the most of the space you have. 1. Space Bags – These are great for storing out-of-season clothes, waiting-to-see-if-we-have-another-baby clothing and clothing memorabilia. 2. Use cabinet shelving that you design. Most times our cabinet shelves are too high or too low for what we need to store. If you are lucky enough to have adjustable shelves use them! If not, purchase wire shelving and put it where you need it! 3. Ottoman Storage – I have one of these in my home and I love it. We keep blankets and throws in it. They are close-by and easy to put away when we are done. Even small children can do it. 4. Bed Risers – The point of using bed risers is to create additional under-the-bed storage. If you have the type of bed that can use these risers, it can double your storage space. Great place to keep those space-saver bags. 5. Multiple Hangers – These are great in small closets. They allow you to hang a lot of clothing while using very little space. 6. GO vertical – If you are in a small space and need extra storage you must go vertical! Use wall space to hang shelves and don’t forget the space above doors. 7. Containerize – Put items you use at the same time in one container. An example of this is using a bin with a handle to keep all your hair products and tools. When needed, you can remove the container, use the items, and replace the container. This works well with cleaning supplies, make-up and mailing supplies too! 8. Over the door organizers – I use the shoe organizers a lot. The hooks work well too. 9. Under-Sink Storage – Most people ignore this space because it is awkward. Buy an organizer specifically made for under the sink and increase your storage space. 10. Purge – Last but not least, if your space is too small, a simple session of purging can make a HUGE difference! |
