#1 Multi-Use Furniture

One of the best ways to make the most out of your space is to invest in furniture that serves multiple uses. There are a variety of furniture items that can serve multiple purposes and provide additional storage from couches to even coffee tables and ottomans. This couch from West Elm utilizes the space beneath the sectional as a space where you can store blankets or other seasonal items. For a storage ottoman, Target has a wide variety that are sure to suit the style of your home. By utilizing multi-use furniture, you can add in storage space and accommodate your things.

#2 Wall Shelves

Shelving is a more traditional way to create more storage space but standing shelves typically take up a lot of floor space. With wall shelves, or floating shelves, you can add in more storage space while using them as a way to decorate your walls. Wall shelves can be found at almost any home goods store and there are a variety of shapes, colors, and materials to choose from. Hobby Lobby has a selection of wall shelving that will provide a stylish way to add storage space and add to your décor.

#3 Mirrors and Natural Light

If you’ve utilized every piece of furniture and added all of your shelving and you’re still worried about your living area not feeling large enough, you can always use a few tricks that will create the illusion of larger space. If you have enough space or the perfect spot for a large mirror, that will help add to the illusion of a larger space and by letting in the natural light, it will help the space not feel so small and cramped.
