Hidden reserves: where to store things that have nowhere to go
We surround ourselves with many really useful and deceptively necessary things. There is nothing bad in this, but sometimes things become so much that they begin to encroach on our personal territory.
It is terribly annoying when you can’t find the right one among the heap of little things. Especially if you need to run, and these damn keys / organizer / headphones have fallen somewhere. Chaos interferes not only with managing time, but also creating a beautiful picture. An apartment will never look stylish, well-groomed and tidy if there are some “homeless” things lying around everywhere. Whether you want it or not, you have to organize the space. But what if there is absolutely not enough storage space? Use hidden reserves – believe me, your apartment has them too.
Perforated panel in the kitchen
Wall panel SKÅDIS, 3732 rubles.
On it you can place in a convenient order all the spoons, shovels, boxes with spices and other devices and containers that you use every day. You will immediately feel the advantage of this method: everything will be at hand, and the lockers will no longer be filled to capacity with the necessary things, which still need to get to the bottom.
Floor hanger
Floor hanger RIGGA, 1399 rubles.
Everyone knows the rule: in order not to overgrow with unnecessary things, you need to buy a new one only after you have got rid of the old one. But what if there is nothing to throw out at the same time, and there is nowhere to fold clothes? A floor hanger will help here.
Pro tip: if things hang neatly and are matched one to one, a simple hanger can make a stylish decor element. As, for example, in the apartment in the photo below.
Mirror cabinet for jewelry, 6885 rubles.
A wardrobe mirror is a godsend for any girl. Inside the unusual “organizer” you can arrange a bunch of lovely little things: rings, earrings, bracelets. And there will certainly be a place for cosmetics: both a collection of eyeshadows and makeup brushes will fit.
Chest of drawers instead of a bedside table
Chest of drawers “Milan”, 4399 rubles.
Why is that? Because a chest of drawers, even the most compact, is much more spacious than any bedside table. It can hold bedding and sleepwear, books and chargers, whatever you use before bed.
Separator for linen
Dividers for boxes “Honeycomb”, 422 rubles.
Use dividers for easy storage of underwear and socks, as well as other small items. They allow you to make the most of the space and keep everything in perfect order.
Multifunctional furniture
Bed frame with drawers BRIMNES, 15 999 rubles.
The bench in the hallway can serve not only to sit on it or put a bag. You can keep a lot of useful little things in it: dog leashes, for example, shoe care products or even the shoes themselves.
Sofas and beds with built-in drawers will also provide additional storage space.
Armrest organizer
Organizer for the armrest of the Sofa Master, 969 rubles.
It’s like a hard armrest, only better because it has pockets! You can put a cup on the shelf, and push control panels, glasses, even chargers into your pockets.
Corner Shelves
Corner wall shelf FRESTER, 1953 rubles.
For small apartments, corner shelves are a great way to save space. On them you can place, for example, flowers, photographs and other decorative elements. Or something more useful – books, notebooks, or albums.
Paper basket
Bucket with a hinged lid SNÄPP, 699 rubles.
Seemingly nonsense – a trash can next to the workplace. But in fact, this can be a very elegant way out of a situation when papers, checks, receipts and other unnecessary nonsense are piled up on the table, which we usually shove into boxes and then forget to throw out.
Locksmith regiment
Wall key holder “Happiness”, 799 rubles.
It is not only convenient – you can hang up the keys, and glasses, and a protective mask, without which you cannot leave the house now. But also stylish – it looks very cute, especially with a slate board for cute notes to the household.
