If you\u2019re perennially short on storage, borrow these 8 ingenious strategies from homeowners who\u2019ve learned to live well without living large.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Paint It to Match<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>A monochromatic color scheme is a sneaky way to trick the eye and make a room look and feels larger. Choose furnishings that blend with the walls, and, when adding shelving, brush on a coat of paint that matches the walls for a seamless, built-in look.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Take Advantage of Architectural Elements<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>Reimagine the space between studs or exposed ceiling beams as storage opportunities. In this completely sweet tiny house, beams become shelves and brackets for wine glasses, paper towels, and more.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Build In a Bit of Bathroom Storage<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>Tiny houses have even tinier bathrooms, so owners have to get really clever about where to put the necessities. Here, an easy DIY\u2014requiring just a couple of boards and a couple of nails\u2014creates an over-the-toilet shelf that\u2019s a perfect fit for extra shampoo, soap, or a decorative plant.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Max Out Space Above Windows and Doors<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>For even more shelving, look up above the openings in your home. Those precious inches between the top frame of your windows and doors can be the perfect spot for hanging a bracketed shelf and stowing tableware, books, or knick-knacks.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Step It Up<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>Many tiny houses have stairs leading to a bedroom loft, and these present interesting storage options. Here, a narrow shelf is tucked into the tiny space at the foot of the stairs, but it\u2019s possible you can carve out space beneath the stairs as well.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Be Proud of Your Pots<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>A pot rack is a time-honored storage trick for a small kitchen, saving on cabinet space and keeping the cookware within easy, instant reach. Add some hanging containers and you can even rack up flatware, spices, or fresh herbs.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Repurpose Some Multi-Tiered Finds<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>Keep your eye open for creative ways to reuse old stuff, and you\u2019ll have added storage for very little cost. Try leaning a ladder against an empty wall for hanging towels, or add a crate, with a few hooks screwed in underneath, for a multitasking spot for kitchenware, or just about anything else.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"slide-header\">Go For Flexible Furniture<\/h3>\n<div class=\"slide-text-container\">\n<div id=\"slide-text\">\n<p>Furniture that can shrink or expand with use is the ultimate practical choice for a small space. Folding chairs can be stashed when not in use, while an old-fashioned secretary is a classic choice for a disappearing desk space that hides the clutter when work-time ends.<span style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">\u00a0<\/span><em style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">&#8211;\u00a0Bob Vila<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Interested in home remodeling?\u00a0Contact<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/medinaexteriors.com\/remodeling-experts\/\">Medina Exteriors<\/a>\u00a0today, (330)591-4040<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home Remodeling | 8 Great Storage Options for Your Home Home Remodeling |\u00a0The tiny-house movement has much to teach us [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":4337,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1026,1027],"tags":[1010],"class_list":["post-4753","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home-remodeling","category-home-remodeling-trends","tag-home-remodeling-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v17.8 (Yoast SEO v28.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Home Remodeling | 8 Great Storage Options for Your Home<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Home Remodeling | Medina Exteriors and Remodeling - 4029 Jefferson St, Medina, OH | Have questions?
