We're all looking for ways to make our spaces work harder for us, and with rises house prices we're getting less space for our money.
Whether you've just moved into a new home, or you've been living in the same place for years, you can always improve on how you use your space.
Here’s some things to that will make small room living a bit more bearable.
Small Room Hacks - Grazia
A Corner Rack
Corners are dead space. Good only for shoving furniture up against or chucking piles of dirty clothes into – either way – they're not being used to their full potential. This corner rail means you can now use corners to hang the overspill from your wardrobe, store shoes and still stash dirty clothes in without taking up any extra space.
Bed Risers
They might look awful, but that extra six inches of space under your bed that risers can create could be the thing that stops you going mad and moving out. Now, instead of the one box full of 'precious items', you can stack two. Voila – double the hoarding.
A Mirror With Storage
This mirror has the double bonus of making your room look bigger (the mirror bit) and providing a place to store your jewellery (the er, storage bit).
Command Hooks
For real, these things are your new best friends. Buy ten packs and don't underestimate their value. Hanging things from the walls is a stellar way to store hats, bags, scarves and belts and make use of every last inch of space. Just make sure it looks pretty.
Magnetic Pots
Radiators are the bane of the small-roomer. Other than the whole keeping the room warm thing (granted, this can be useful) they stop furniture from fitting neatly into the alcoves you so desperately need it to. Make them into storage space with these magnetic pots – perfect for storing jewellery, hair bobbles, loose change – basically anything that doesn't melt.
