So
many of the new homes have really small bedrooms. It seems that the
master bedroom is a decent size but the other bedrooms seem to pay
the price. Like many people, I have a decent size master bedroom but
my other bedrooms are small. In order to make the bedroom appear
larger, I needed to save some space.
Save
space in a bedroom by buying a twin-sized bed with the drawers
located directly underneath This bed with drawers will eliminate the
need for a chest of drawers. You can create a more spacious look in
your bedroom with build-in bookshelves with cabinets instead of
freestanding shelving.
Here
is a room set that I did to show my customer how she could save space
in her daughter's small bedroom. Shop for the blue home
accessories are shown in the room
set here.
.Another
way to save space is to buy a raised bed that has a built-in desk
underneath. These raised beds look like bunk-beds only there isn’t
a lower bed. Kids seem to love this bed ensemble.
My
niece had a really small bedroom so her Dad created a loft sleeping area
for her. He then created a study area underneath the loft. By raising the bed to the loft area her
bedroom was more spacious.
My
sister saved space in her small bedroom by installing a Murphy Bed.
When the bed is locked into the wall your room will look very
spacious. My sister has her office in that room along with a potted
palm tree and a comfy chair. When she needs the room for guest she
will utilize the Murphy bed.
When
shopping for furniture select a small frame bed and a nightstand as
large furniture would make the room look less spacious.
Buy plastic storage containers and put a
few on the top shelf of the closet for past season clothing. This will free up
space in the drawers and your clothes that are hanging will not look
cramped.
Well
those are some ideas that I thought I would share with all of you on
how to save space in a small bedroom.
