Embrace the shelves!

Some people have an aversion to shelves in the bedroom. Some say they throw off the decor and get in the way. But, there are different ways to make shelves stylish, yet functional. Floating shelves are a trendy, stylish way to decorate the walls of your bedroom, AND they’re functional. You can store your books, jewelry boxes or other items on them!

Don’t forget to look under your bed!

When we were teenagers, we used to get in trouble for throwing things under the bed instead of putting them away. However, if you’re looking for extra storage space, underneath your bed isn’t a bad place to look. Thin Rubbermaid crates or totes for your shoes and other accessories fit perfectly under the bed. When you try this technique, you’ll be thanking your 17-year-old self!
