Furniture Tips for Space Savers

July 23rd, 2012 | Posted by KristenM in Home Furniture - (0 Comments)

home furnitureAre you living the dream…in a small apartment or home? For many of us, it takes years to save up for the home, or apartment/condo, of our dreams. We usually start out small and make our way up to homes with more space than we know how to handle. So for now, how can you compensate for a serious lack of space?

Start by shying away from oversized furniture. Sectional sofas and dressers with 10 drawers are not for you. Instead, look for furniture with multiple purposes. A few weeks ago we mentioned platform beds with side drawers. This can make up for small dressers that do not provide you with ample storage space. Another bedroom alternative is a bed with room for storage bins underneath.

In terms of living room furniture, a loveseat is a comfy option. If you need additional seating, add an accent chair. Pick out a matching ottoman with a lid for even more storage space. Can’t fit a TV stand? Mount it on the wall and purchase vertical media storage.

Floating shelves work well in every room of the house, whether it be the bathroom, living room, or bedroom. They will leave you with a place to walk and the home will not look overcrowded with so many pieces of furniture.

Instead of a kitchen table, try a kitchen island against the wall with two counterstools. Or a kitchen cart that can be easily moved out of the way when cooking.

Saving Space with a Platform Bed

bedroom furniture setsPicking out new home furniture can be an exciting and fun task, especially if you’re moving into a new home or apartment. When it comes to bedroom furniture, the bed is obviously the most important piece. But with so many styles and options, which direction should you choose? If your bedroom is tight on space, consider a platform bed. With the added drawer space you do not have to worry about filling up the room with oversized dressers.

With the added space, maybe you can go from a full-size bed to a queen or to a king? If a lot of extra space is needed, look for platform beds that have drawers on both sides. You won’t have to worry about buying extra under-bed storage containers either. That’s a money saver! Plus, who wants to worry about losing items under the bed or cleaning down there?

Find even more storage options by adding a headboard with a bookcase built in. It’s easy to be creative and get the most out of your room when you shop bedroom furniture sets from Everything Furniture.  With so many color options and styles, you can create a bedroom that you’ll love coming home to every night.
