Organizing every room in your home may feel like a lofty goal, but with the right strategy
your entire home can be organized.
These ideas from ikea might just be the answer to your organizing resolutions.
1.
Get creative with storage for small spaces Shrinking homes with little dedicated storage
mean we need to keep adapting our storage solutions.
Every nook is an opportunity!
Here, wall-mounted shelving, a trolley on wheels and different-sized baskets make the
most of an awkward space.
2.
Use your doors to store We feel most at ease with guests in our kitchen
when it’s tidy.
Rails and hooks are a great way to boost storage and organization – try thinking beyond your
wall space and put your doors to work too.
3.
Embrace open storage Many of us would benefit from homes that are
clutter-free but filled with things we love.
Resist the temptation to hide everything in boxes – organized open storage can make
it easier to find what we love and use often.
4.
Streamline your hallway It takes most of us well over an hour to leave
the home after waking up.
A handy hallway shelf (here the brackets have been painted white and hooks have been added
underneath) might just make getting out the door a bit easier.
5.
Combat cabinet clutter Storage boxes with handles are perfect for
organizing a cleaning cabinet.
Not only will you tackle a problem area, you may also boost your wellbeing – the act
of cleaning and tidying can promote a feeling of mental presence.
6.
Hang your outfits Did you know that 58% of Shanghainese pick
out clothes for the following morning the evening before?
An open hanging rail may be just the thing you need to make your morning dressing routine
run more smoothly.
7.
Use closed storage to your advantage Too much clutter in the living room can make
it hard for us to relax.
So, on an open bookshelf, try mixing in shelf inserts and boxes to hide away small or messy
things that you need but don’t want to see.
8.
Categroize Extra Party Utensils and Decor Plastic containers are a great way to store
extra party utensils and materials for entertaining.
Instead of dumping them all in one container labeled, "party utensils," divide them into
categories.
This allows you to find what you need quickly.
9.
Use Tilted Shelves for a Shoe Wall Tilted shelves are a great way to organize
your shoes.
These shelves keep shoes neatly placed preventing them from slipping and sliding, all shoes
are visible at once, and it makes it very easy to grab which pair you need.
Tilted shelves can be installed in your closet, or if you are a shoe enthusiast create a shoe
wall such as the one above.
10.
Use A Track System For The Garage Track systems come in different forms, but
they all have a horizontal track with different ways to hold items vertically.
They often have hooks or clips which allow you to effortlessly hang many items you need
in a garage.
Shovels, brooms, bikes, ladders, cords, and rakes are all products that can benefit from
this system.
11.
Decorative Backsplash Rack Backsplash racks offer easy access and stylish
storage.
Most versions take just a few minutes to install.
Backsplash racks have a few disadvantages, though.
All your kitchen utensils have to look good, since they’re on display.
12.
Closet Nook Shelves Salvage the hidden space at the recessed ends
of your closets by adding a set of wire shelves.
Wire shelves are available in a variety of widths.
Measure the width and depth of the space.
Then choose the correct shelving and ask the salesperson to cut the shelves to length for
you.
13.
Option for a Murphy Bed With Built-in Storage Murphy beds are really ahead of the home organization/space-
saving curve—especially ones that incorporate shelving and cabinetry.
They optimize floor space and are perfect for any home, especially studio apartments.
