Multipurpose Pieces
Furniture that serves more than one purpose is the key to a maximized space. Storage ottomans, foldable tables and small movable units that can do double duty are perfect for a small space. Don’t limit yourself to multipurpose furniture, think about décor that serves more than one purpose too. Drinking pitchers can be used as vases, dinner platters can contain decorative objects. Reimagine your belongings to make it work.
Vertical Storage
Walls aren’t just for pictures, they are for shelves, cabinets and more. Use your walls wisely to get more real estate out of your space.
Declutter
Keeping your space tidy and clear of clutter is one of the simplest steps to make the most of your space. Keep a small basket by the entry that is your designated declutter container. Use it nightly to throw items that need tending to (think bills, junk mail, kid and dog toys) into one place so you can sort it, trash it, or put it back in its designated home.
Mirrors
Adding mirrors to your interiors will give the illusion of more space. Prop an enlarged mirror against a living room wall for décor and expansion. Or adorn mirrors to closet doors in a bedroom to trick the eye and really open up the space.
Large Rug
A large rug in a bedroom or living space gives the feeling of expansion. Invest in a beautiful large rug in a neutral color to really lighten things up.
