Doesn't Cost A Penny! Learn These Storage Techniques To Turn A Small Space Into A Large Mansion (pdf Attached)

Many family members who live in small apartments often sigh in their daily lives, that is, "Why is the home so messy?" "Many items can't be found again!".

At first glance, the house is full of clutter, and the storage tools purchased at a high price seem to be of no use. Instead, the space is taken up more by these so-called "storage tools" themselves, making it increasingly narrow and cramped.

In fact, people who can be called true storage experts never rely on expensive equipment. Instead, they are good at using things that are within reach and using ingenious ideas to expand the space on their own.

The methods shared today can make your home seem invisible and orderly without spending a penny. It is especially suitable for small households and novices to operate. It is simple and easy to learn, and the results can be seen immediately.

Wardrobe expansion: from "stacked Arhat" to "cabbage"

The wardrobe at home is the hardest hit area in terms of storage. Many clothes are stacked like mountains. To find a piece of clothing, you often have to dig through the wardrobe all the way to the bottom. This is not only extremely troublesome, but also takes up a lot of space.

Change the direction of thinking and transform the traditional "stacked" method into the "rolled and rolled" method. In this way, the space utilization efficiency can be doubled.

The specific operation is to roll light clothing such as T-shirts, thin pants, and bottoming shirts very tightly into a tube like rolling sushi.

Then, insert the rolls upright like documents into a drawer or storage box.

After this operation, all the clothes are clearly displayed. Picking any one of them at will will not cause other clothes to be scattered. Compared with stacking, it saves at least half the thickness space.

For example, down jackets and thick quilts are bulky things. To deal with them, you can use vacuum compression bags that are idle at home.

After the air is removed, its volume can be reduced by two-thirds, instantly freeing up a large space for the wardrobe, and at the same time it also plays a role in preventing moisture and dust.

Don’t let the space at the top of the wardrobe go unused. Cut the discarded cardboard boxes according to the appropriate size. This will become a perfect storage box, which is specially used to place bedding and clothing that have passed the season, so as to fully utilize the vertical space.

Putting the kitchen back in place: The wonderful use of walls and waste products

Kitchen countertops are always occupied by bottles and cans, leaving little space for operation.

The solution lies in "moving up."

Commonly used items, such as condiment bottles, knives, chopstick tubes, etc., can be hung on the wall with the help of nail-free glue hooks or sticky rods, thus freeing up valuable countertops from placing these items.

Cut off the upper part of the large plastic bottles that are used up at home, such as beverage bottles and oil bottles, and wrap the edges with tape to prevent scratchers. This becomes a free storage box. It can be used to hold onions, ginger, garlic, small tools, or as a drain basket.

There is something special about storing pots. You don't just need to stack pots on top of each other. In that case, it will be particularly inconvenient to pick up the pot at the bottom, and it is also very easy to scratch the pot body.

The best way is to "place them vertically" and use the support of the pot lid or the pot itself to make them stand upright in the cupboard like a book. They are easy to access and have good ventilation.

The inner part of the cabinet door is also a precious hidden space. A few hooks with strong adsorption force can be used to hang spatulas, towels, and heat-insulating gloves to achieve the effect of not wasting any space.

Clean bathroom: clever use of layers and corners

Bathrooms are usually the smallest in size but contain a lot of clutter.

The sink looked cluttered with bottles and cans.

Discarded shoe boxes or express cartons can be easily cut and combined to create multi-layered open storage shelves.

Put the skin care products in, distinguish them from the cosmetics, and then put the toiletries. After they are arranged in categories, from a visual point of view, it will immediately look much neater.

Towels are folded and rolled into a tube shape, and bath towels are also folded and rolled up in the same way, and then placed vertically in the storage basket. This placement not only looks neat and beautiful, but also facilitates ventilation to achieve the drying effect.

Above the toilet and above the washing machine are often forgotten corners.

Refreshing living room: the art of hidden storage

Snacks can make the living room cluttered, and books often make the living room cluttered. Remote controls also have a certain impact on the clutter in the living room, and children's toys can also cause clutter in the living room.

Rather than letting them scatter everywhere, it’s better to “hide them”.

Find a few old cartons with different sizes, and simply wrap them with old cloth or wrapping paper. This will create a storage basket that can be said to be pretty good-looking.

Sort the toys into one basket, sort the magazines into another basket, sort the snacks into another basket, and then stuff the basket with toys under the sofa or under the coffee table or the corner of the TV cabinet. Then stuff the basket with magazines under the sofa or under the coffee table or the corner of the TV cabinet. Finally, stuff the basket with snacks under the sofa or under the coffee table or in the corner of the TV cabinet.

Pull it out when needed and push it back after use, keeping the tabletop and floor clean at all times.

You can also make use of the wall in the living room and install a few relatively simple hooks near the entrance door or next to the sofa to hang bags, keys and scarves that are often used when entering and exiting the door, to prevent them from piling up like a hill on the entrance cabinet.

The essence of storage is not to hide objects, but to find a fixed and convenient "home" for each item.

The core focus of the above-mentioned methods is on methods such as "local materials" and measures such as "space reconstruction", which almost do not require additional consumption behaviors, but can greatly improve the living experience.

Once you start taking action, innovate and create waste cartons and polyester bottles with different characteristics, and use roll folding and hanging methods to organize them, you will find that the place you live is indeed gradually changing in the direction of space expansion, brightness enhancement, and environmental cleanliness.

A well-ordered home not only brings visual comfort, but also brings peace of mind and a pleasant feeling when you return home every day.

How about giving it a try today, starting from organizing a drawer, and experiencing the wonderful changes caused by space magic.
