How To Find Hidden Storage Spaces Around Your Seattle Home

How To Find Hidden Storage Spaces Around Your Seattle HomeCabin fever can get pretty intense in late winter. You may feel like the four walls of your house are closing in around you. Clutter becomes overwhelming, and you contemplate throwing everything away or donating it all so that you can have a little room to breathe.

What you may not realize, is you actually have lots of storage space around the house that will allow you to keep those little things you have been holding on to for whatever reason, without your house feeling cluttered. At Greenwood Hardware, we understand how much you will appreciate finding those little storage spaces around the house.

  1. Under the staircase. There is an incredible amount of space there that is often ignored. It doesn’t take much to cut a door into the wall below the staircase. You can make it into a closet or open the space up and build some shelves.
  2. The space between the kitchen cupboards and the ceiling is huge. You can store extra dishes, vases, knickknacks and so on. If you don’t want the items exposed, you can put them in pretty wicker baskets. The baskets will look like decorations, but will actually be hiding your stuff.
  3. Behind closet doors. Those over-the-door shoe hangers can be used inside the closet door to stash all kinds of things. Whether you need a place to store craft supplies, tools or whatever else that is cluttering up the house, you can keep it organized in one place without using up any space in the house.
  4. Garage cabinets. Your garage catches a lot of the overflow from the house. Installing a few cabinets is one way to keep the floor space while keeping your stuff out of sight. A single shelving unit in the garage can be used to store items you don’t use all the time, but still want to keep handy.
  5. A tool holder on the back door. Free up space in the pantry or closet by using a tool hanger to keep the broom, dustpan, and mop in one place. Placing the holder in the laundry room or on the back of a cramped broom closet frees up more space to stash more clutter!

Don’t let your stuff become the source of your frustration. Tidy up the house by using these hidden storage spaces. You will find what you need to maximize the space in your home at Greenwood Hardware. Come on in, or contact us today.
