Stylish ways to maximise your bedroom storage
With the party season rapidly gaining momentum, your bedroom should be a haven of organisation and tranquillity. Keeping your bedroom tidy and organised will ensure no last minute dash to get ready for that big event you will be attending, whether it is a wedding, a graduation or a sporting event.
Clever storage ideas are key to a functional bedroom design that not only looks beautiful but is also easy to keep clutter free and works with your lifestyle. Being able to store away your belongings is also integral in fostering a stress-free environment.
Make the most of a bedside cabinet
Having a place to store your bedtime essentials is an important part of designing a bedroom that functions well and allows you to optimize your night time routine. By creating the perfect environment and having everything in one place, you will be sure to produce a haven of tranquillity that will help you to attain the best night’s sleep.
A bedside chest can take the form of many roles- it could be a surface for a stylish desk lamp and books for some people, vital storage for others or just somewhere to keep your phone within easy reach.
You can substitute a dressing table for some bedside drawers with a mirror positioned on top- a mirror gives the added benefit of bringing more light to your room.
Having matching bedside cabinets (bedside table) will help to balance out the look of your room. Clever design features such as concealed pull-out leaves are great for providing that extra room you may need for your bedside.
Choose a bed with storage
One of the smartest and easiest ways to add a whole new area of storage to a bedroom is by having a bed that is conducive to boosting your options.
A bed with storage options can be your biggest asset especially if space is tight. Divan beds with drawers are easily accessible and actually strengthen the structure of a bed.
When bed manufacturers construct a bed and add drawers, they do not remove any supporting features or change the design of the bed base.
An ottoman bed is perfect for seasonal storage of larger items such as duvets or blankets. You can select various storage and drawer options such as 2 or 4 drawers, 2 normal and 2 continental drawers, full ottoman or half ottoman.
Utilising your space
By taking advantage of floating shelves you can use up wall space whilst at the same time freeing up floor space for multifunctional pieces of furniture such as chests and nightstands.
Tall drawers are useful for those who have less space.
Ottoman stools and storage benches will maximise space as well as doubling as an end seat. With a plethora of styles and colours to choose from you will be able to follow any inspiration that you wish.
Open shelving units and adding some stylish baskets will further enhance your opportunities to declutter a bedroom.
Wardrobe smart solutions
A wardrobe incorporates a multitude of storage options or solutions to help keep your bedroom tidy- from internal shelves and drawers, to tie and shoe racks. There are so many storage options available you can have a neat attractive wardrobe in no time!
Many wardrobes are available in different heights ensuring that you can find the perfect size for your bedroom. From combination wardrobes to sliding door or hinged door wardrobes, there are various styles to choose from so you will be sure to find the best one to fulfil all your requirements. Aesthetically colours and finishes can be chosen to your style and taste.
Organising your clothes into types makes it so much easier to find that work jacket if you are running late in the morning. Starting with a clear out you will be able to edit your wardrobe by keeping only the pieces that fit and that you still want to wear.
Arranging your closet space by category and then by colour will make things look neater and will save valuable time when you’re in a rush. Dividing your clothes into summer and winter categories will enable you to store away the other season out of the way.
Store thing the right way- keep bulkier items such as jeans and knitwear folded and flat in vacuum packs, and hang jackets, dresses and work wear.
By hanging everything in the same direction and using co-ordinating hangers, you can ensure that the visual clutter is kept to a minimum.
Placing bulky items in piles, such as jeans and sweaters means that you can utilise the vertical space in your wardrobe by using the areas above and below any hanging rails. Clear boxes and dividers to store items such as folded items, shoes and jewellery will make them immediately accessible.
