ideas: Best Storage Ideas That Will Organize Your Entire House

Add retractable drawers and shelves

Notes:

• The kitchen is often a place where things easily fall into disarray. Wide-open cabinets turn into an abyss where covers disappear, and canned goods silently expire after being shoved to the back.
• To optimize the storage in your kitchen, add retractable doors and shelves to your cupboards. This is a hidden feature that works well whether you have traditional shaker style kitchen cabinets or contemporary slab cabinets.
• Get creative when adding these features. Using a tiered structure is ideal for larger pots and pans, as well as rarely used kitchen appliances. Optimize wasted space, like the opening between your cupboards and fridge, with vertical trundle drawers for spice and cleaning supply storage.

Decant your dry goods

Notes:

• Dry goods come in boxes to simplify shipping and retail shelf organization. In other words, they aren’t designed for kitchen or bathroom cupboards. You can eliminate these space wasters and open up new storage opportunities by decanting your dry goods.
• Invest in some stylish canisters or repurpose old mason jars to eliminate boxes as soon as they come through the door. Decanting your dry goods will also keep them fresher for longer, rather than having them go stale in a bag or box.

Use multipurpose furniture

Notes:

• Rather than having a room filled with various furniture pieces, look for furniture with built-in storage. You can get sectionals and pull-out couches with hidden compartments for spare blankets and linens.
• Look for a coffee table with a storage compartment or repurpose an old trunk for a vintage twist.
• In the entryway, a bench can double as a space to sit down and put on your shoes and a seasonal storage unit. Look for a bed with drawers underneath to store everything from extra clothing to books.
• When shopping for furniture, always consider functionality as well as fashion.

Add built-in shelving

Notes:

• If storage space is truly limited, you can create your own with built-in shelving. Adding built-in shelves to a kitchen is ideal for storing spices and sundry items. You can add them to the living room for books and knick-knacks.
• If you’re worried about the flow of your room, add built-in shelves between studs in interior walls. This approach is especially effective in the bathroom and makes for ideal toiletry storage. Add your favorite piece of art on a hinge overtop for a secret panel.

Use the backs of doors wisely

Notes:

• The backs of doors are the epitome of wasted space. If you have a door without hooks or hangers, it’s time to capitalize on this prime storage real estate.
• Add a few bars or hooks to hang seasonal wear, towels, and other textiles. You can also use shoe organizers to keep footwear from taking up space on a closet floor. These affordable storage pouches are also great for keeping cleaning supplies organized in a utility closet.
