Storage Solutions to Make Your Home Organised

by Made Interiors | Jul 14, 2022 | Guides

Nobody likes to live in a cluttered house. The organisation is a vital part of creating a comfortable and tidy home. In this guide, we’ll be giving you some storage solution tips to make your home organised.

Investing in built-in storage solutions

Built-in storage can obviously be a more attractive option than using plastic storage boxes and baskets, but it can be more expensive. Investing in built-in furniture, however, is better for your home in the long term and is customisable to your needs and lifestyle. Whether you need more drawers or clothing rails, we can create a bespoke wardrobe for you.

Bench seating

Shoe racks can be a thing of the past with this clever storage solution! As well as being a seating option, an indoor can add decorative value to empty areas of your home. Commonly used in hallways or bedrooms, you can store items such as shoes or blankets inside the bench. Indoor benches can come in all shapes and sizes, from single-seater to longer benches for family homes.

Hooks

Hooks are always an inexpensive option, whether you choose to have a coat rack in your porch area or hooks on the back of a door. They’re great if you don’t want to take up all your wardrobe space with coats and jackets. You can get creative by choosing different coat pegs. From woodland-themed for your country-style home or DIY pegs to fit your shabby-chic style.

Saying no to junk drawers

We’re all guilty of having a junk drawer or two in the house – and it’s absolutely fine to have one! One of the best storage solutions to make your home more organised is to limit yourself to having one junk drawer. Then make sure everything else has a home. You can even make your junk drawer tidy by using dividers or organisers so that you can find everything easier.

Giving everything a home

This one is pretty self-explanatory, but everything should have its place. Clothes in the wardrobe, shoes stored away in a bench or on a shoe rack, and any bedding and towels folded away in your airing cupboard. Keys are one of the most common items to get lost if you’re someone who tends to throw things down and find them later. The best way to change this is to have a key hook near your door, so they get put away as soon as you get home. Be careful not to place them in areas where they can be seen by potential burglars such as near doors and windows. You can also use a key bowl if you’d prefer not to hang up key hooks.
