Organize A Small Space

You live in an apartment, share a home with several roommates, or own a small condo. Whatever your circumstance, you might think that because your space is so small there's no good way to organize. Think again! By using space you might not have thought of, you can organize your small space. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Use the space under your beds. While an obvious item to store under the bed is off-season clothing, there are many other items that will fit there as well. For example, you might want to stash your big roasting pan that you only use during the holidays, or that mega-pack of toilet paper that was on sale!


2. Make use of all the upper space in your closets. Purchase inexpensive plastic shelving and install it on your top closet shelves. Store extra linens, clothing, or holiday decorations.


3. Double your closet space by installing a second rod halfway down from the top. This will allow you to hang twice the clothing in each closet.


4. Put lazy susans or small, wheeled baskets in your kitchen cabinets. This will allow you to store food items, plastic storage containers and more in a way that both maximizes space and allows you easy access.


5. Rid your home of items you don't absolutely need or absolutely love. By clearing out useless knick-knacks, unnecessary papers, out-of-date clothing and more, your home will be much more organized and comfortable.
