Extra Storage Solutions for Your Bedroom without Compromising on Style
Are you looking to add extra storage to your bedroom without compromising style? A lot of storage solutions aren’t exactly known for their stylish appearance. In fact, they can end up making a room look more cluttered than it did before.
The good news is there are ways to add storage to a small room without compromising on style.
Under bed storage
Under bed storage is actually one of the best ways to keep your bedroom tidy and clutter free. It can be used to store bedding, out of season clothes and anything you don’t need on a daily basis. Perhaps you struggle to keep your wardrobe tidy throughout the year because you just don’t have enough space? Under bed storage provides an ideal spot to place your out-of-season clothes. You could always create your own under bed storage using polycarbonate sheets. Polycarbonate sheets are a perfect solution for those that don’t have much space under the beds, as they can get the sheets cut to size and made into a box for them.”
Mounted furniture
As featured on Huffington Post, wall mounted storage is one of the most modern solutions available. It looks incredibly stylish and makes use of the space you already have. Built in box shelves are a particularly great option. You can add a door to each shelving unit so that your clutter is neatly tucked away. These can be great for storing all kinds of items from shoes to books and valuables.
Turn your collections into art
Do you have a large collection of bags, purses or jewellery? You can make a feature out of them by hanging them on the wall in a decorative way. This adds a unique focal point to the room and also prevents them from cluttering up the wardrobe and your chest of drawers. Making a display out of your collections is a fantastic idea and very easy to achieve.
Bed chests
Another useful stylish storage option is a bed chest. These are basically placed at the end of the bed and come in a variety of designs. You can even buy leather ones which provide an elegant, stylish design. They are a lot like children’s toy chests you can buy, but they have a much more stylish and modern appearance.
Elevate the bed
This idea may seem a little out there, but it’s great for those who want to relive their youth! As shown on PopSugar, elevating the bed provides plenty of space underneath. This can be used as wardrobe space or you could place a desk underneath. Cover it with curtains so the storage space stays hidden. Of course, if you choose to elevate the bed, you’re going to need to make sure that you are providing plenty of support. If you aren’t good with DIY, you’ll have to get a professional in to raise the bed for you.
These are just some of the ideas you can use to add extra stylish storage to your bedroom. Sometimes you have to think outside of the box to make the most of the space you already have.
