Creative Storage Ideas

[dolphin]

You can find unused storage space all over your home if you think creatively. Feel free to add your creative ideas to this thread.......


Examples: If your home is built with studs and drywall, you can add cabinets between the studs without losing any room space.

Replace the family room sofa with cushions on hinged platforms that have storage beneath.

A shallow bookcase to hold paperbacks may fit the wall of even a narrow hall.

If the steps to the basement are open, install tracks and a pullout drawer on the underside of one or more.

You can even replace nailed-down steps with hinged ones and stow items underneath.

Extra blankets can be stored between the mattress and box spring or stuffed into pillow covers and used decoratively.

Store items under the bed in old discarded drawers or in flat plastic bins.

I like this thread, thanks Dolphin!!!!

I'd add a favourite of my friend Gwen who puts small trash cans down, adds a plywood circle to top them, stores out of season stuff and crafts in them

and flops a circular tablecloth over them that covers to the floor and a glass round to cover the cloth.

As for me I store bags of flour, pasta and sugar etc in my 2 hexagon end tables in my living room.
