How to organize storage of things in a small apartment

Hallway

Think about the filling of wardrobes for outerwear: combine different shelves, rails and special accessories for small items, such as hangers with rings for scarves. And instead of a separate pouf, it is better to use shelves for storing shoes with a seat on top.

Kitchen

Kitchens in Khrushchev are very small, so you need to try to make the most of the space: for example, make a kitchen set up to the ceiling. Instead of shelves, choose roll-out baskets, a column with an oven and a microwave can be placed near the refrigerator, and mezzanine cabinets are well suited for storing non-essentials.

If possible, install a "magic corner": a roll-out section, which is located in the corner of the kitchen unit. Then you will not have inaccessible places under the countertop.

The doors of the lower facades can also be used very functionally: to place the storage of lids and other small things there. Shelves or narrow, closed cabinets can be hung over the dining table. And if guests often come to you, then it is better to purchase folding chairs and store them separately.

Living room

To prevent storage furniture in the living room from becoming a typical "wall", try to combine open shelves (with beautiful decor and books) and closed sections. Install them over a sofa or doorway. On the cabinets, you can place boxes and baskets that match the style. Choose a coffee table with storage space.

Bedroom

As in the hallway, use the most convenient cabinet design for you. It is best to choose a bed with a lifting mechanism and sections for storing bedding. A place to sleep can successfully fit into a U-shaped structure of cabinets and shelves at the top.

A wall with a window can also be functional: under the windowsill, place a worktop for a work area or a cosmetic table, and place shelves or closed cabinets on the sides.

Children

Store the most necessary things at the height of the child, others a little higher.

Toys can be placed in boxes, baskets or boxes (so it will be convenient to quickly get and collect them). It is best to choose a bed that is not only comfortable, but also functional - with storage space.

Bathroom

Use a hanging sink with drawers for storing household chemicals, and instead of a regular mirror, hang a mirror cabinet - cosmetics will always be at hand. If you need additional storage space, you can place shelves or a rack above the washing machine.
