Today, we are going to talk about tiny bedrooms, how to work around the space issue and still feel like you can breathe in that room, and then show you some really cool small desks that will show you that you don’t always have to compromise even when you’re dealing with limited possibilities.
Tips for Tiny Bedroom Space Organizing
There is actually an impressive number of tricks and strategies that you can out to good use when it comes to taking advantage of whatever bedroom space you have available. Here are some things that you can try:
Keep It Simple
A minimalistic approach is often a really good solution. People often tend to bedroom furniture that isn’t always put to good use and is sometimes dispensable. We can give you plenty of examples here, from vanity tables to ottomans placed at the foot of the bed. But a minimalistic approach is more than just removing unnecessary furniture; it’s also about using the one that’s necessary in a wiser fashion. For instance, if you have a small or medium-sized drawer where you keep your shirts of underwear, you can place it next to the bed and have it serve as nightstand as well.
Declutter
You will feel suffocated in a bedroom where there’s too much clutter, which means that you’ll have to think of intelligent decluttering solutions. For instance, opt for nightstands with more drawers so you can avoid having items pile up on the top of the nightstand.
Under the Bed
One very good storage solution implies using all the free space that you have under your bed. If you have any bit of under-the-bed clearance, it’s time to put that space to good use and there are multiple ways to do that. Probably one of the most convenient solutions is to invest in a bed frame that comes with storage, which translated into drawers that provide plenty of storage space under the bed. If you don’t want to make this investment, there are plenty of storage boxes designed to be placed underneath the bed. Most of these storage boxes come with lids or zipper that will protect the contents of the box from dust and have you keeping everything clean and sorted.
Look Up
Vertical space is another aspect you want to take into consideration if you want to put your bedroom’s free space to good use. There are plenty of ways to make this happen: from adding simple additional shelves to installing hanging organizers that could declutter some of the tabletop surfaces from other pieces of furniture you have around your bedroom. Another great idea would be to take advantage of the vertical space that’s in your closet (for instance, you can attach hooks to the closet’s door or add an extra shelf above the clothing rod for extra storage).
Bedroom Decluttering Tricks
Clutter is perfectly normal because we often tend to hang onto things that aren’t really necessary and that eventually do nothing more than just occupy space. If you’re not sure where to begin your bedroom decluttering process, here is a list of tips that might come in handy:
* One of the most underestimated actions that can really make a bedroom appear more organize is making the bed every morning, as soon as you wake up. In fact, there’s an entire philosophy revolving around the idea that it’s productive to start your day doing one difficult thing and that will make other stuff throughout the day easier.
* If there’s stuff in your bedroom that you haven’t used in the last six months, you might want to reconsider having it in the bedroom. We tend to attribute a lot of sentimental value to different trinkets that we don’t really need. We’re not saying to throw them away, just to store them in boxes and put them away so that you can have more free space to work with and feel less suffocated amongst all these items.
* Don’t let dirty clothes occupy unnecessary space in the bedroom. If you have a laundry basket, try to place it somewhere else (like the bathroom, for example). A lot of people actually find themselves having less free space in the bedroom because of dirty clothes piling up on that one chair.
* Don’t be afraid to move furniture around. You might want to experiment with rearranging different furniture pieces and you just might discover that a different layout will declutter the room and provide the illusion of more bedroom space.
* If you happen to have a TV in your bedroom, mount it on the wall instead of having it sit on a piece of furniture. This helps open up the space inside the room and frees up room on top of the furniture item where the TV used to previously sit.
