Project Storage


So we have 1 month left until we move into our new apartment. And like I said before, we are downsizing from a 2 bedroom to a 1 bedroom unit. My biggest concern is finding/creating enough storage space. There are only 3 closets to use for all of our clothes, linen, coats, etc. So my wheels are turning on how to create storage from every inch of unused space.

I will definitely be planning on utilizing under-the-bed space for my out of season clothes.


We do not have a linen closet for the bathroom and there is little extra space, however we do have a medicine cabinet. So I plan on making the most of that space.


I love these flower planters used as bathroom accessory caddies. We have a large pushed back window in the shower that leaves a nice sized ledge/alcove to house all shower necessities. These planters might look very nice there!


I love these cubby boxes for washcloths, soaps and cotton balls.


We have a large closet in the living room that will house the majority of our junk! So I plan on finding a variety of storage boxes, baskets and file holders.


I love wire locker baskets!


I don't think I'll be using this in our apartment but I will be keeping it on file for future use. I love the daybed and what good use of storage with the baskets.


This is another picture I'll keep on hand for future use. I love the look of a corner kitchen nook with a bench seat. These always look so inviting to me. And when a kitchen is too small for a large table this still seats the same amount of people without feeling crowded.
