Storage Ideas for Small Spaces
We all have items that are rarely used or even never used. Most people just store these items in a cluttered garage. What about those who don't even have a storage space and just leave them lying around in a corner of the room? This time, Décor Aid shares some ideas for storing your belongings by making the most of small spaces in your home.
1. Utilize the space under the bed
Storing items under the bed may sound a bit strange, but many people have been doing it. One way is to use special storage designed to fit under the bed, such as drawers or adding a small wheeled cabinet underneath. This makes it very convenient to access and store items. This is very effective because the space under the bed is large enough to store things like shoes, socks, or even technical equipment.
2. Sofas with hidden storage
This storage concept combines comfort and functionality. Sofas without backrests are ideal for storing items around the living room. Typically, such sofas have a cavity inside with a removable top cover. You can use it to store extra blankets, pillows for guests, or even children's toys and magazines that are usually found in the living room.
3. Transform empty walls into shelves
This is the most effective way of all. Not only does it make the room look more spacious, but it also makes it look more beautiful. Items that are commonly stored on shelves like this include book collections, toys, indoor plants, or the bottom shelf can be used to store footwear such as shoes and sandals.
4. Place items on top of cabinets
For those who don't have a storage room, it's quite common to store items on top of cabinets. However, for this one, we recommend using it for items that are no longer used or rarely used. To keep things tidy, you can use old cardboard boxes or baskets to separate different types of items.
These are some efficient and effective ways for those of you who need additional storage space but don't have a storage room. Pretty easy, right? Share in the comments if you have any other ideas for making the most of small spaces for storage.
