It can be challenging to fit everything in a small area. If you have limited space at home, you might find ways to create more storage. Of course, it’s not enough that you find more room to keep your things, but it’s also important that your home looks good. It’s your place, and you want to keep it clean, organised, and pretty. Here are stylish ways to add storage to your house.
- Get a built-in wardrobe
A built-in wardrobe is designed to fit your space perfectly so you can get the most out of it. First, talk to the manufacturer about the design that you like. Ensure that it offers as much storage as possible. It should allow you to fit your shoes, bags, accessories, and clothes, or at least the ones you use often.

- Keep things under the bed
Get a container that will fit under the bed, and place seasonal items or those you seldom use. By putting them under the bed, you can still easily access them when you need to use them. They do not take the space of the items you often use, which should always be easily accessible.
- Make use of the space between the cabinets and ceiling
The space between the cabinets and ceiling is often empty. Take advantage of this space by placing pleasing things to the eyes but do not require easy reach. For example, you can put the decorative baskets that you use for special occasions in that area.
- Turn the stairs into storage
Turn every step of the stairs into drawers, and you will have plenty of storage. The space under the stairs is also often left unused. You can also turn it into a cabinet to store various things that you want out of sight.
- Build a shed in your lawn, backyard, or garden
If you have space outside the house, a tiny shed can make a huge difference. You don’t have to squeeze everything inside the house. Instead, use a shed to take them outside. Place the things that you rarely use in there. Ensure it is sturdy and it is secured to keep your things safe. If you are a DIY type of person, build one on your own. Else, hire a professional to do it, or get a pre-built shed that you can quickly assemble at home.
- Use stylish containers
Look around and find empty areas in your house to add containers that will serve as storage. If they are not out of sight, choose stylish ones, so they are still pleasing to the eyes. For instance, there are chic boxes, bins, and baskets that can serve as additional storage.
- Install hooks
Install stylish hooks on the wall after the front door. It is where you and the guests can hang coats and umbrellas. You can also hang the keys there for easy access. Hooks at the back of the bedroom and bathroom doors are additional areas where you can hang clothes, belts, hats, and towels.
Besides finding more storage at home, get rid of items that you no longer need so you can free up space and use what you have for those that are still useful.
