When you don’t have a big space, clever storage is the key to keeping things tidy and fitting in everything you need.

Storage solutions will maximise the available space and keep your cabin organised.

Here are some practical and creative storage ideas to make the most ofany limited space, whether it is your portable cabin or any room in you home:

Vertical Shelving: Utilise your wall space with vertical shelving units or bookshelves. They not only provide ample storage for books, clothes, shoes and decorative items, but they also draw the eyes upward, making the space feel larger.

Floating Shelves: Floating shelves are an excellent way to add storage without taking up valuable floor space. Install them over the bed for a design feature and a clever space to store a lamp or your glasses, or in your living space to display items or store essentials.

Under-Bed Storage: Invest in storage containers or drawers designed to fit under your bed. This space is often underutilised and can be ideal for stashing clothing, shoes, or seasonal items. Plus, it keeps those items out of sight so prevents the illusion of clutter

Multi-Functional Furniture: Opt for furniture pieces that serve more than one purpose, such as a storage ottoman, a sofa bed, or a coffee table with hidden compartments. These items help to declutter while maximising practicality.

Hooks and Pegs: Install hooks or pegs on walls or doors to hang items like coats, bags, or accessories. This keeps these items off the floor and frees up closet space.

Over-the-Door Organisers: Over-the-door organisers can be repurposed for storing various items like towels, shoes, toys, or beauty products. So, if you have a cupboard space, maximise its space by adding an over-the-door organiser too.

Use Inside Cabinet Doors: If you don’t want to use an over-the-door option in your cupboard spaces, you can still utilise this wasted space. Attach caddies or hooks to the inside of cabinet doors for additional storage. This can be used for storing hats, scarves, or miscellaneous items.

Foldable and Stackable Storage: Opt for collapsible or stackable storage containers to save space when they are not in use.

Hanging Storage Bags: Hang storage bags with pockets in your free standing cupboards or on your hanging racks. These can help to organise small items like socks, scarves, or accessories.

Corner Shelves: Corners can be funny spaces that are easily wasted. But, installing corner shelves allows you to optimise this unused space. You can use it to store useful things or create aesthetic appeal by displaying decorative items.

Remember, when trying to keep a small space organised, it's essential to declutter regularly. This will help you to keep things tidy and functional. By combining these storage solutions with a minimalist approach, you can create a more open, organised, and inviting living environment even in the smallest of spaces.
