Storage space is every homeowner's everyday struggle. While you're very much aware of the limited storage you have, you just can't go full nomad and stop bringing new things in your home.
It is why it is exciting to discover tips and life hacks on how to create more rooms for your unlimited stuff. Here are 5 ingenious storage solutions that will change your life according to Realty Times:
Take advantage of the space under the stairs
You have probably seen this type of storage solution in Pinterest before, and while you think it is clever, you might have not realized that it is actually doable for your own space. Creating storage under the stairs could be pullout drawers, flip-up kind, or built-in wine storage. Depending on your needs, that space can sure be a valuable addition to your limited storage.
Under the bed
You probably are on this now with shoeboxes and clear plastic containers, but what we mean with under the bed storage are the pull outs and flip up ones that can store linens and other bulky space eaters. The bed eats most of the space in a bedroom and if you can turn it into double-duty furniture, you create a solution for one of your major storage concerns.
Built-in kitchen nook
Traditional table and chairs are usually big and bulky that they take up significant square footage in the kitchen. If you like quaint little corners, a built-in kitchen nook might be the suitable choice for you. Aside from being cozy and chic, it takes up lesser space and provides opportunities for more storage space by installing pull-out cabinets or a flip-up or liftoff bench.
Bottom cabinets
Bottom cabinets are usually designed as one open space. To maximize storage, add a stepped shelf or tension rods to allow for more organization. With the rods, you can create a convenient easy to reach place to hang spray bottles under the sink.
Over the door
With some ingenuity, you can actually create more storage without having to create new ones just by utilizing the space you already have wisely, just like the space above the door. This will particularly come in handy in bathrooms where there is little to no space for cabinets.
