IF you crave extra space at home, it is time to take action. Many of us do not have the cash for a bigger pad. But fear not, there are ways to create storage on a shoestring budget that will leave your home feeling calmer and roomier.
Vertical Storage
Create more storage by adding shelving to walls. Floating shelves look great and start from £5 at Ikea. If you fancy a DIY project, try box shelving made from MDF or make a rail from spare timber to hang coats, mugs, pans, or utensils.
Be a Better Boxer
Homes feel more organized when everything has a place. Utilize old chocolate tins for coloring pens, hampers for toys, and shoe boxes for important documents. Get creative by covering the outside of the boxes with stylish paper and display them on a shelf.
Cupboard Space
Maximize existing cupboards by adding extra levels or compartments. Hanging organizers from £6 at Dunelm can help you pack a wardrobe with extra belongings. Add two-tiered racks to kitchen cupboards to double the amount of jars, cans, or spice jars in the space.
Double Up
When buying furniture, look for pieces with secret compartments to store clutter. An ottoman can be filled with clothes or throws, a coffee table with room underneath, or a sofa with extra built-in storage. These pieces are functional and help declutter your space.
