The worst thing that can happen to a small bedroom is daily clutter. If things are constantly scattered in the corners, and every time you reproach yourself and your loved ones for negligence, it means that you simply do not have enough storage space. Make sure that there is exactly twice as much space for all your things as there are things themselves. You can place a sufficient number of drawers and shelves even in the tiniest room. Here are some tips:
- Space behind front door : if between door frame and there is little space on the wall - this is an excellent reason to install a narrow shelving unit. When the door is open, he simply won't be visible.
- High bed with storage drawers– salvation for small bedrooms. Another option is a bed with lifting mechanism: a spacious model can replace an entire dressing room.
- Space around the window can be used from floor to ceiling. Install tall cabinets on either side of the window opening, as well as hanging sections above and below the window.
- Podium: you can hide not only a chest of drawers in it, but also another bed.
- Headboard– a great alternative to bedside tables and bookshelves in the bedroom.
- Corners of the room: They are often forgotten. Corner cupboard visually looks smaller than it actually is.
- Tall cabinets to match the walls visually make the ceilings higher. If you add such a cabinet ceiling cornice, then there will be a complete illusion of built-in furniture. Such techniques help to visually lighten bulky structures. Also great solution there will be mirror doors.
The free space under the bed can easily accommodate drawers for storage. Alternatively, for these purposes, a podium is built, which becomes not only the basis for, but also a place for storing bed linen, pillows and blankets.

In the bedroom we store many things: clothes, shoes, seasonal items, books, jewelry, cosmetics and much more. Most of us are faced with a catastrophic lack of space in our closets. Therefore, you need to think very carefully about the storage system and determine appropriate place for every thing. Thanks to this, the bedroom will look neat, and you will always find what you need at the moment.
Bedroom Storage Ideas
- Buy a bed with built-in storage. This is very practical and allows you to effectively use the space under the bed.
- If you don't plan to change the bed, buy drawers or baskets that will fit under the bed. They can be used to store things that you don't use often. For example, seasonal items or bed linen. If there are too many things, pack them in sealed bags. They can significantly reduce volume.
- Replace bedside table on a narrow closet. It takes up the same amount of floor space as a nightstand, but you can fit four times as much stuff in there!
On a note!
The main thing is that this closet has open shelves where you can put a watch or put your favorite book. To prevent the closet from looking bulky, choose a white or light shade for it.
- If you have a small space, make the most of your wall space. You can do bookshelves even under the ceiling. But try to hide personal belongings in closed cabinets. Clutter on open shelves will create a feeling of chaos.
- A significant part of the bedroom is occupied by wardrobes. Often they try to make them as invisible as possible, but try to look at it from the other side. After all, a closet can become an effective compositional center that will make the interior more expressive. Select a cabinet original design in bright, unexpected color.
- If you have a big library, use wall-to-wall shelving with open shelves. With them, your volumes will become an integral part of the interior, creating a special atmosphere of comfort.
- Not even large bedroom can hold a lot of things. The main thing is to avoid the feeling of clutter.
Advice!
To do this, select cabinets and furniture light colors and as much as possible simple design. And lay a bright blanket on the bed, which will attract attention to itself, distracting from bulky cabinets.
- Use cabinets with mirrored doors. They reflect light, making the interior brighter, and expand the space of the room.
- Create a composition of shelves above your bed. You can place your favorite souvenirs, books and photographs on them. This way, you will kill two birds with one stone: you will get additional storage space and highlight your bed as the compositional center of the room.
- For a small bedroom, buy built-in furniture. She rationally uses every centimeter of space, and besides, she makes the interior look seamless and neat. This will make the room seem more spacious.
- When designing your bedroom interior, think about what things you will store there and decide how many closets you will need.
Advice!
Create more storage than you planned. Believe me, you will definitely need additional seats.
- Don't forget about the free space under the window. Choose a low chest of drawers that spans the entire width of the wall, which will fit organically into the interior. Put pillows on it and you'll get cozy place by the window where you can read your favorite book.
- Use low chests of drawers.
On a note!
You can not only store things in them, but also use them as a seating area or a small bedside table.
- A bedside ottoman can also be used to store things.
- If you don't have enough space for a bedside table, hang small lockers Over the bed.
- Buy a clothes hanger that attaches directly to the door. You can hang your everyday clothes on it.
- Organize a dressing room in a pantry or utility room. It will be convenient to store clothes and dress here, and you won’t have to put a closet in the bedroom.
- If you have a large enough bedroom, divide it with a false wall, behind which you can create a dressing room.
- IN dressing room rationally distribute the space. Make two rows of hangers, shelves for shoes, and on top you can put baskets and boxes for hats.
- If you have a lot of shoes, buy a separate closet specifically for them. This is much more convenient than storing it in boxes that clutter up cabinets. This way you will keep your shoes in better condition, and you won’t have to spend a long time looking for the right pair.
