Storage space in the bedroom. Stylish and practical storage systems for the bedroom
Looking for new places for things
The bedroom is not only a place to sleep and relax. It is also the place where we keep most of our personal belongings: clothes, shoes, accessories. How to organize storage in the bedroom and not turn it into a warehouse - in our material. So, here they are - a few square meters of living space with a bed. Where to store things here? Let's start with the classics.
Classic storage locations
Wardrobe or wardrobe
The most classic storage for clothes, linen and other things. Cabinets convenient: dust does not get inside, everything is hidden from prying eyes. Clothes can be hung on hangers or stacked on numerous shelves. seasonal items: packed and put away until the time comes. The main thing is to remove everything from the cabinet from time to time, ventilate the interior and treat it with moths and other pests.
Dresser
No less classic storage for linen and clothes. A chest of drawers is a good solution for a small bedroom when the space does not allow for a closet. But also as an addition to the wardrobe, the chest of drawers is very convenient. In addition, you can always choose a model of any shape that fits into the interior: higher or wider, with three, five or more drawers. Bed
Many models of beds for the bedroom are equipped with special storage compartments. Most often this is the space under the lifting mattress. They usually store spare sets of linen or some seasonal items, and there are also beds with drawers on sale, which are also very convenient storage for things. This bed can also be made to order. Original storage for things
Space under the bed
Let's start with the bed: if its design does not provide for drawers or storage compartments, no one will forbid you to use the space under it for this business. 
How to store things? Wicker baskets or plastic containers with lids are ideal. Another option is wooden drawers with small wheels. Curbstone in front of the bed
It is both a storage facility and a decorative element at the same time. Decorative pillows or a bedspread can be folded on the curbstone, and some things can be stored inside the curbstone. For example, spare sets of bed linen and towels. 
If, instead of a bedside table, there is a bench in front of the bed, several baskets or containers can easily fit under it. Floor hanger
For everyday wear, a floor hanger is the ideal storage space. It can be either a vertical rack hanger with hooks or a U-shaped structure on wheels. Racks
If for some reason you cannot or do not want to put a closet in the bedroom, put on shelves. Take some of the shelves for small things: books, souvenirs, jewelry, and fill the rest with containers or baskets with things. If there is a niche in the bedroom, install a rack in it, and an ordinary curtain will help hide it from prying eyes. You will get a real dressing room. Headboard
The headboard can also be converted into storage: arrange shelves above and around the bed. Things "not essential" can be put higher, and the most necessary - at a distance of hands. Box
Besides the fact that the chest is a great storage place, it is also an original piece of furniture. For any interior, you can choose or order a model that will fit into high-tech, classics, and country. 
Instead of a chest, you can use lighter visually large wicker chests and baskets. They are great for air permeability: use them to store pillows, blankets or bedding. Suitcases
Why should your travel suitcase be empty between vacations? Fill it up with something. At least those things that are useful only on vacation: diving accessories or climbing equipment. 
An old grandmother's suitcase can also serve as both storage and interior decoration. A little imagination, just a little bit of restoration - and an old suitcase can easily turn into a bedside table or coffee table. We store seasonal clothes or shoes inside the suitcase. Small roomy bedroom
Despite the fact that the bedroom is not the largest room, you can store a lot of things in it. The main thing is to show a little imagination and turn on ingenuity. And, of course, take advantage of our tips. Live easy! But we also need to live (and comfortable) somewhere, and square meters in a small city apartment are not rubber. Therefore, you have to look with envy at the happy owners of large bedrooms and separate dressing rooms, and think about how you can contrive and place all your things in your own tiny bedroom.

The worst thing that can happen to a small bedroom is the daily mess. If things are constantly scattered in the corners, and every time you reproach yourself and your loved ones for negligence, then you simply do not have enough storage space. Make sure that there is exactly twice as much space for all your things as for the things themselves. Even the smallest room can accommodate enough drawers and shelves. Here are some tips:
- The space behind the front door: if there is little space between the door frame and the wall, this is a great reason to install a narrow shelving unit. When the door is open, it simply will not be visible.
- High bed with storage boxes- salvation for small bedrooms. Another option is a bed with a lifting mechanism: a roomy model can replace an entire dressing room.
- Space around the window can be used from floor to ceiling. Install tall cabinets on either side of the window opening and hinged sections above and below the window.
- Podium: in it you can hide not only a chest of drawers, but also another bed.
- Headboard- a great alternative to bedside tables and bookshelves in the bedroom.
- Corners of the room: they are often forgotten. The corner cabinet visually looks smaller than it actually is.
- Tall cabinets to match the walls visually make the ceilings higher. If such a cabinet is supplemented with a ceiling cornice, then there will be a complete illusion of built-in furniture. Such techniques help to visually lighten bulky structures. Mirrored doors are also a great solution.
