bedroom organization
While you can find many articles on how to organize your home office, kitchen, and pantry areas, you probably won’t find much information on how to organize your bedroom.
Your bedroom isn’t meant to be just a quiet place to rest, it often has to serve another purpose: as a storage space for your clothes, accessories, shoes, bedding and more. Figuring out how to store all those belongings while maintaining a stylish and calm environment can be quite a challenge.
Let’s start with the bed. It takes up a lot of space in the room, so why not let it be as functional as it is comfortable? Storage beds provide the ideal solution for adding more space to store your belongings while providing a cozy place to sleep. You can choose to purchase a bed that includes pull-out drawers or an ottoman bed that actually lifts up from the base to reveal metal storage boxes in the frame.
But what about the rest of the bedroom? If you have a lot of jewelry, you may want to repurpose old window screens by painting the frame a bright color and using it to hang your earrings and necklaces on small S-hooks attached to the screen. Wall-hung kitchen drawer utensil organizers and hidden ice cube trays in a dresser drawer are also great ways to store your jewelry.
A tension rod in the toilet could present the perfect way to add extra hanging space for clothes. A repainted wood or ceramic planter placed on the table next to those storage beds can hold magazines, lotions, or other items you want to keep close at hand.
When it comes to storing those items in drawers or boxes on beds with storage, use sturdy cloth bags and place descriptive labels on the handles to indicate which items are stored in each. That takes organization to a whole new level!
If you have decided to tidy up the space in your home this year, start with the bedroom and opt for beds with storage to gain as much space as possible.
