- Hanging your bedside lamps can help clear the clutter off your bedside tables so that they can be used to accommodate other things.
- Hanging your clothes and towels at the back of the door by hooks can clear some more space next to your sink.
- You can store anything you may have lying around the house by using the space beneath your beds. If your bed isn't high enough, use risers to elevate it.
- Go for stack-able chairs so that they can be loaded on top of each other to create more space anytime.
- Your bicycle does not need to contribute to any toe fractures, hang it on a wall with the help of cables perched from the ceiling.
- Do you have a drawer full of documents, magazines, and what not? It would be easier to use a vertical magazine rack that keeps them all organized.
If you have too many clothes and not enough space to store them, try these clever storage hacks – organize all your clothes in shoe-boxes in your closet to save space and label them if you’re running short on time too. Do you have too many scarves? Hang them on the back of the closet doors using shower curtain rings to keep them from getting lost in the cluttered cave that is your closet. S-hooks and chains can also be used to fit more clothes in a limited space and tie-hangers can be your new tank-top saviors; you don’t have to use separate hangers for each of your tank top anymore. This also helps clear some of the occupied space in your closet.
Similar tricks can be applied to your kitchen as well; making extra space in your fridge can be exhausting, use magnetic spice jars on the inner side of the refrigerator door to increase storage space. Cooking meals in a limited space can be quite a task itself; use an over-the-sink cutting board for all your veggies and meat so that the counter is free for other things. Most of us have things in the kitchen that are required merely twice a year, store such things under the sink where they can be easily found yet they don’t get in your way.
You can also use pegs to hang all your pots on the wall so that the cabinets can be used to accommodate other things. The pots also become very easily accessible as well by using this trick. Food dispensers can be used to store all the cereals instead of their boxes; it keeps them fresh and doesn't take up a lot of space.
That leaves us with space saving techniques for your washroom:
- Use magnetic spice jars to hold extra things next to your mirror and you’ll never have to fish for those bobby pins and hair bands again.
- Try different ways of hanging mason jars that can be used to store all your hair products that the cabinet can no longer accommodate.
- Install pull-out cabinets to make the most out of your washroom space.
- Hang multiple rods on the back of your bathroom door so that your clothes and towels remain as dry as you want them.
