How To Maximize Space in a Tiny Bedroom

Are you dealing with a bedroom that is too small for all the stuff you have? If so, you may be desperate to find a way to keep the things you love, in the space you love, without the room looking like a complete, cluttered mess. Our team at Greenwood Hardware has everything you need to clean up, hide the clutter and get more organized, even if you have a small space with which to work. It is all about maximizing every inch!

1. Under-the-bed totes are perfect for storing clothes that are out of season. This can help free up space in the closet and your dresser. You can also store accessories that go with those winter/summer outfits to free up more space.
2. Purchase bedroom furniture that doubles as storage areas. Headboards with shelves on either side are great for storing all those little things. Nightstands with shelving or drawers are functional and attractive.
3. Corner shelves that attach directly to the wall are easy to install and don’t take up any precious space in the room. You can put the shelves over a chair, dresser or even your bed if necessary.
4. Build a bench under a window. It can double as a seating area with storage underneath. Paint the doors of the storage area a pretty color to match the room and add a few throw pillows for another pop of color.
5. Floating shelves are fun and attractive while keeping your stuff neat and tidy. Add a couple of wicker baskets to place on the shelves, and you have a place to store those small little things, like your phone charger, books or whatever else you have in your room.
6. Consider installing pretty wall lights to free up space on your nightstand and dresser. There are plenty of touch lights that are easy to mount yourself.
7. Transform the space under your bed into a storage area by using wicker or pretty plastic box. The boxes should be a height that allows them to slide under your bed easily. You can use a glue gun to add pretty flowers, emblems or decals to the side that faces out to make it part of the room décor.

Get creative and look at your space with a fresh set of eyes. Once you get an idea, head into Greenwood Hardware to pick up the shelving supplies, paint and other materials you need to build yourself a little extra storage in your tiny room. Stop on in, or contact us today!
