Small space got you down? No need to worry! Not everyone has a lot of space in their home. Finding places to put all your “stuff” can be difficult. Here are some of our favourite small space hacks for every room in your home.
Floating Shelves:
Shelving units are great for adding some much needed organization to a home, but they can also take up quite a bit of space. Consider floating shelves instead that let you place other furniture pieces below.
Hanging Bedside Lamps:
Proper lighting is very important in a small apartment, but a floor lamp can be a bit of a burden. Try hanging our bedside lamps instead!
Storage Bed:
Opt for a bed with stoage when you're low on space. Having room under your bed to store clothing, or boxes will free up your closet and floor space.
Rolling Cart:
Not only are they affordable and stylish, compact rolling carts can carry everything from paper towels to canned goods, and fit just about anywhere in your kitchen.
Corner Shelves:
Instead of cramming a cabinet in a corner that could make your room feel claustrophobic, create a corner shelving unit that opens it up. If you consider your corners in a new way, you can definitely make room for decorating in the rest of your apartment.
Magnets for Knives:
Did you know that you could magnetize your tiny kitchen? Have easy access to your knives and free up your drawer space with a wall magnet.
Wall-Mounted Storage:
When all else fails, you can always count on wall-mounted storage units, a clean-lined floating cabinet can give you more storage space in your living room without sacrificing an inch of style.
Mirrors:
Adding mirrors is the easiest way to open up a tiny space. If you have a room that feels too cramped, putting in a mirror is going to make such a huge difference. Embracing mirrors translates to a larger feel to your small space.
Hideaway Desk:
A hideaway-style desk is such a great solution for a small apartment. Just pull up a chair when you need to get work done and fold it up when you want to save space.
Magazine Holders:
Looking for an affordable way to organize your small bathroom? Magazine holders can hold anything from toilet paper rolls to hairspray bottles, and will only set you back about five bucks.
Wall Outlet Shelves:
Turns out you can improve your bathroom counter storage situation in seconds, with nothing but $10 and a screwdriver. Inexpensive outlet shelves can hold up to 10 pounds of small bathroom accessories—think: hairdryers, electric toothbrushes, and razors—and is simple as switching out your outlet cover.
Over Toilet Storage:
Short on space in your bathroom? Over toilet storage is the way to go. You can add an additional 5 shelves to your tiny bathroom in no time!
Chop it off:
Want to add a table to your extremely narrow hallway? Make room with this unique small space hack by chopping it in half and securing the piece to the wall.
Window Shelf:
Want to turn your small space into a café inspired delight? If you have no room for a dining table, attach a shelf to a window and pull up a couple of stools for your own private café counter.
Under Table Storage:
This is a simple but beautiful way to add some design elements to your home while providing more storage. Palce baskets, bins or large bowls under your hallway tables to make the most of the small space.
