Keeping Organized in Small Spaces
Keeping Organized in Small Spaces
It’s no surprise that dorm rooms aren’t the biggest; couple that with the fact you are sharing your space and having to fit your entire life into one room and it can be downright small. Just because there isn’t a ton of extra storage doesn’t mean that you can’t keep things organized. Check out these hacks to make life in small spaces much more bearable!
- Add a rug and curtains to break up your space.
A lot of students forget the basics when decorating their dorms. Rugs and curtains are cute and make any space feel more like home. They also help to break up your dorm and make it feel like more than one big room.
- Utilize wall space.
Hang some shelves and get some cute baskets from the dollar store to store smaller items in. When you group smaller items together and put them in a basket it makes the room feel less cluttered. Keeping these things off the floor and up on the wall gives you extra floor space.
- Use curtain rods to hang your tank tops.
You will not only save dresser space, you’ll be able to easily see what tops you have available.
- Get a mattress caddy.
Mattress caddy’s are great for rooms where there isn’t the space for a side table. You can store your books, remotes and other smaller items in the pockets of the caddy for easy access.
- Use ice cube trays to store jewelry.
Ice cube trays are the perfect size for holding earrings and rings. The tray itself can be stashed inside a dresser drawer or up on a shelf.
