Declutter Your Bedroom With These Impactful Storage Tips

16th July, 2024 .
Three things to consider when decluttering your bedroom:
  • Storage
  • Ultilse Unused Space
  • Style and Functionality

Storage space is something you can never have too much of. This inconvenient truth is particularly true in the bedroom, where clutter just seems to magically appear. Whether it’s clothes bursting out of the wardrobe, soft toys piling up on your kids’ beds, or just random household junk that hasn’t found a home anywhere else and you’re not quite ready to part with, if your home’s bedrooms look more like a storage facility than a welcoming, comfortable retreat, you’re not alone.

Creating an organised and clutter-free bedroom will not only significantly enhance your home, but it will also help you sleep better at night, improving your physical and mental well-being.

8 Bedroom Storage Options with Impact

Need a little inspiration to get you started? Here are eight practical tips for maximising storage in your bedroom from the team at Impact Furniture:

1. Ottoman Beds

You could, of course, just stuff everything under your bed. But this isn’t the out-of-sight, out-of-mind hack you probably employed as a teenager tasked with tidying your room. This approach is a much more sophisticated solution.

An Ottoman bed features a built-in storage space underneath the mattress, accessed by lifting the mattress and bed frame. This design provides a practical solution for maximising space, making it especially useful in smaller bedrooms or for those who need extra storage. The lifting mechanism can be either at the foot of the bed or along the side, supported by gas-lift hydraulic arms for easy operation.

2. Slim and Freestanding Wardrobes

We can’t all be blessed with the luxury of a walk-in wardrobe. When space is limited, slim and freestanding wardrobes offer many advantages. Their narrow profile makes them ideal for small or awkward spaces, allowing efficient use of limited room while still providing essential storage. As freestanding units, they can be easily moved or repositioned, offering versatility in room layout and decor changes without the permanence of built-in wardrobes.

3. Maximise Closet Space

Sometimes, it’s about more than just the space you have but how you optimise that space. You can use hanging organisers, shoe racks, and shelf dividers to keep everything in place. Also, why not consider installing a double rod to hang more clothes? Closet organisers can help categorise and separate different items, making it easier to find what you need and ensuring that every inch of your closet is used efficiently. You can also use the back of your closet door with hooks, pockets, or racks for shoes, accessories, or bags. This often overlooked space can be handy for additional storage, helping keep your closet neat and easily accessible.

4. Storage Trunks

These versatile pieces offer hidden storage while also serving as a seat or a place to lay out clothes. Storage trunks or ottomans can store anything from extra blankets and pillows to books and magazines, adding functionality and style to your bedroom.

5. Smart Nightstands

Nightstands with storage help keep your bedside area neat and uncluttered, providing a place for everything you need within arm’s reach. Look for nightstands that have drawers or shelves for additional storage space. Use these drawers to store books, chargers, or nighttime essentials like glasses and medications.

6. Utilise Wall Space

Install shelves above the bed, door, or along empty walls to store books, decorative items, or even baskets with smaller belongings. Wall-mounted shelves help free up floor space and keep your items organised and within easy reach.

7. Decorative Baskets and Bins

Decorative baskets not only provide practical storage but also add a touch of texture and warmth to your bedroom decor. Place baskets on shelves or the floor to store throw blankets, pillows, or miscellaneous items. Choose baskets that complement your room’s style to enhance the overall aesthetic. Consider using under-dresser bins that slide under your dresser for extra hidden storage. These bins can store items you don’t need to access frequently, such as seasonal clothing or extra bedding. Keeping these items out of sight helps maintain a clean and organised look in your bedroom.

8. Wall Hooks and Pegboards

Sometimes, the most straightforward options are the best. Install hooks or pegboards on walls for hanging bags, scarves, hats, or jewellery. Hooks and pegboards are a simple and effective way to keep your accessories organised and within easy reach. They can also be used to display items, adding a decorative element to your room.

Bonus Tip

Tough love time. Sometimes, you’ve just got to bite the bullet and have a clearout.

There’s no secret formula to successful decluttering. You just have to go through your belongings and donate or dispose of items you no longer need. Keeping clutter to a minimum enhances your storage solutions. Establishing a decluttering routine helps ensure your bedroom remains a relaxing and organised space, free from unnecessary items.
