Maximise Space with Angel Storage

As a homeowner, you’ll likely find that you have a lot of stuff in the home. That’s not uncommon as many of us have a natural habit of hoarding to various degrees. As your household gets bigger, so too does the demand for space and it’s therefore beneficial to utilise your space effectively so it doesn’t feel cramped or cluttered.

 

Here are some helpful tips worth following to maximise space within your home this year.

Declutter regularly

Decluttering the space is a great starting point for maximising the room you have throughout your home. The more often you declutter your space, the better it’s going to feel and look as a result.

 

Try navigating the home, room by room when decluttering to avoid it being too overwhelming. Be ruthless with your decluttering, making sure to separate your belongings into keep, sell, donate or dispose.

 

You could also use the five-year rule, where if you haven’t used something in five years, you should chuck it out.

Use vertical storage

Vertical storage is certainly handy to have when it comes to maximising the space you have. Many homeowners neglect to make use of the storage available upwards. Your walls have plenty of height, so it’s worth finding storage options that utilise this vertical space in and around your home.

 

Examples of vertical storage could be wall-mounted shelves, over-the-door storage and hanging hooks or pegs for example.

Make use of multifunctional furniture

Multifunctional furniture is highly effective when you’re looking to find places for your belongings to go. Everything needs to have a home and if you’re struggling to keep things off the floor, then multifunctional furniture can be handy to have.

 

From under-the-bed storage to stairs that have storage underneath each step, there are plenty of ways to make use of furniture for the purpose of storage.

Minimize the furniture in a space with Angel Storage

In order to declutter and maximise space, think about minimising the furniture within the room. Chances are, you don’t need all of the furniture that’s cluttering up your space. Think about how you could declutter the room when it comes to your existing furniture.

 

As you work through your home, clear out any furniture you don’t need and then think about reconfiguring the space by adjusting where furniture goes within the room. You might find that the space functions a lot easier as a result.

Add mirrors to mimic the illusion of more room 

Mirrors are a fantastic way of creating more space through illusion. The bigger the mirror you hang or place within the room, the more convincing the illusion will be. Think about how you could incorporate mirrors into the rooms of your home to create bigger spaces with the trick of the eye.
