No matter what room we’re talking about, there is ALWAYS a way to find more space – and your beautiful bedroom is no exception. Tired of navigating through a maze of cluttered surfaces, bulging wardrobes and feeling claustrophobic in your place of comfort? Well fear not, because we’ve got some top tips for you to free up space for ultimate bedroom freedom!
Get Creative with Storage Space
Imagine your bedroom as a canvas, and your paint is the clever ways you utilize the room’s frame. Sometimes it isn’t apparent what you can do; perhaps you can use the walls for vertical storage solutions, or bring a futon at the end of your bed to pack bedding away. Take full stock of the space you’re working with and jot down any ideas that come to mind. The possibilities are endless!
Bulk up Your Bed Spaces
It seems obvious, but the space your bed doesn’t use can be an amazing source for cleaning up the clutter. Investing in vacuum-sealed storage bags – for unused or seasonal clothing – acts as a double-whammy for optimizing your bed’s potential and clearing space in other places. Better still, investing in a bed with built-in drawers or a pull-up bed can afford you all the extra storage units you’ll ever need.
Organize Your Closet
Ah the closet area – a dense nest of unsorted clothes where you can never find the shirt you’re looking for (or maybe that’s just me!). Consider emptying out your ENTIRE closet onto the bed, culling anything you could throw out Marie Kondo-style and figuring how to best use the available space with a clear perspective. Incorporate decorative boxes for smaller items, coordinate based on apparel type and attain over-the-door hanging storage pockets for everything that will fit.
Furniture for Any Occasion
Somewhere, sometime, someone invented multifunctional furniture; a feat that deserves a commemorative plaque somewhere. Beds that use built-in shelving in the headboard, dressers that double as a makeup table or desk, sitting features that hold storage in their base…if you can imagine it, chances are it’s been invented with you in mind! You’ll be amazed what’s on offer to award you more breathing room.
Big Things in Small Packages
Lastly, add a few subtle finishing touches in storage units excellently camouflaged as small decorative pieces. Think colourful boxes on a dresser or shelf that contains coins, jewellery – whatever your heart desires! Jars work in an identical way, as can fashionable fabric or wicker baskets for displaying your stuff in practical-yet-aesthetically-pleasing ways. Whatever your taste is, judge what will work with your beloved bedroom in adding an additional stylish feature.
