Trendy Apartment Storage Solutions

Minimizing clutter in your apartment will help to keep it clean, organized, and inviting. When searching out the perfect apartment storage solutions, keep your decorating style and your personal preferences in mind. Be creative and don’t be afraid to find new ways to use items that will bring out your unique personality and turn your apartment into a trendy space you’ll love living in.

Book Storage

Books can be easy to accumulate and hard to get rid of;  however, living in an apartment doesn’t mean you have to give up your most beloved tomes. Bookshelves are a traditional, easy, and space-saving way to contain your books. Consider interspersing books with other decorative items, such as vases, mugs, and personal knickknacks, which will help to break up the space and create a more visually-interesting element for your apartment. If you like to read before bed, purchase a bedside table with a storage option underneath to keep a few of your favorite books handy. Alternatively, you can use a single fold-out chair as a nightstand. A chair is the perfect unexpected place to stack a little bedtime reading, while still providing space for a lightweight reading light.

Bathroom Storage

No matter the size of your apartment’s bathroom, chances are you’d like more storage. Utilizing smart and trendy storage solutions in the bathroom will help this area look neat and clean, making it more inviting. Shelving is a great way to add storage in the bathroom—if you prefer modern décor, simple metal shelving will look perfect. For a traditional bathroom, wooden shelving can lend extra personality to this space. Shelf-and-hook combinations offer even more storage, allowing you to hang towels, hair accessories or appliances, and other items within easy reach. Metal or wicker baskets are another great bathroom storage solution that can be placed nearly anywhere to contain clutter while enhancing the look of the room. Small decorative stools or chairs can also double as storage for towels and other linens.

Kitchen Storage

Are you using your kitchen storage to the fullest? Maximizing every pantry shelf and kitchen cabinet will keep clutter to a minimum for a clean, organized kitchen. Lazy Susans aren’t just for spices—you can use them for canned goods, bottles, liquor, glasses, cleaning supplies, and much more. Over-the-door racks make a great place to keep dry goods, cleaning supplies, napkins, and much more, while hooks mounted inside your pantry can hold aprons, bags, or even a broom. You can keep foods you use frequently, such as flour, salt, coffee, and sugar, in trendy canisters or jars on your countertop. If you’re looking for a unique way to personalize your kitchen storage, consider painting canisters or jars with chalkboard paint to create decorative labels that can be erased and used again and again.
