When moving from a home to an apartment, you may realize you have more belongings than the size can accommodate. If so, there are plenty of stylish solutions to create a neat and tidy house. Here are a few tips to follow to ensure everything fits in your new place.

How Can I Use My Apartment Space Effectively?

1. Swap the Coffee Table for a Trunk

If you’re having difficulty finding space for living room extras, like throw blankets and books, stash them out of sight in a trunk. Fashionable trunks are large enough to be used as a coffee table, and they provide a convenient place to store belongings out of sight. This will prevent the space from looking cluttered with knickknacks.

2. Decorate Sparingly

When space is limited in your apartment, too much decor can create a claustrophobic feeling in the home. Focus on decorating with items that make a visual statement, like a colorful painting or large rug. Use these pieces sparingly throughout your home to create a stylish look without the clutter. If you have other decorative pieces you love but don’t have room for, keep them in storage until you want to change the existing design.

3. Use Multi-Purpose Furniture

Make your must-have furniture pieces more useful by ensuring they feature additional storage. For example, get a bed frame with drawers to give yourself a place to store extra sheets and pillows. You can also find an adjustable side table on wheels, so you can raise it if you need a makeshift desk.
