Small home, lots of clutter? Put cabinets in these 4 places and instantly free up 20 sq m
A good home is not about how luxurious the decor is, but about how clean and tidy it is kept. However, sometimes because the home is too small, there simply is not enough storage space, so all sorts of odds and ends just pile up outside, and at times like that the whole home looks a mess. Do you ever feel that way?
Anyway, Huahua does not like the home looking messy, so this is a bit of advice for friends who are renovating: really do add more cabinets, because having enough cabinets means having enough storage space. Once all the bits and pieces are put into the cabinets, the home will be as clean as new. Especially in the following 4 places, Huahua really suggests putting in cabinets.
1. The entryway
The entryway is the place we must pass through as soon as we get home. This place is usually made up of a shoe cabinet, but sometimes the entryway cabinet is too few or too small, and the moment you come in the door you see all kinds of loose shoes kicked off on the floor, because there is simply nowhere to put them inside the cabinet. At times like this, it is best to take the entryway cabinet all the way up to the ceiling, so you do not have to worry about storage space and it does not collect dust either - killing two birds with one stone.
2. The TV cabinet
Following the order along, we now come into the living room. The living room is where we relax and have fun, so all kinds of clutter naturally appear there too. Sometimes that small single layer at the TV cabinet can barely hold anything, which makes the whole home feel messy. We can put cabinets all around the TV wall. At first Huahua thought it would look ugly, but it turned out the result was really great - both novel and with plenty of storage space!
3. The bedroom bay window cabinet
These days many families like to install a bay window when renovating, since it not only improves the beauty of the bedroom but also adds a place to relax and rest. In many families the bay window usually only has the two cabinets underneath, so it is no wonder there is not enough storage space. We can have the construction workers install another ring of cabinets around the outer edge of the bay window, so that no matter how many clothes there are, there is no fear of having nowhere to put them.
4. The balcony cabinet
Although the balcony is a place for drying clothes, if it only holds a lonely washing machine, it looks a bit plain, and the washing machine being exposed to sunlight for a long time will also affect its future use. We can choose to put in a row of cabinets and then place the washing machine at the bottom of the cabinet, so that there is both plenty of space and protection for the washing machine!
After putting cabinets in these places, you will find that the storage space at home has increased quite a bit. In the future, all kinds of bits and pieces in daily life can be tucked into the cabinets, so the home will not be cluttered with things everywhere and look messy.
