Storage – Bedroom ideas for small rooms
1. Wall Shelves
Wall shelves are the most simple and minimalistic of the list, but at the same time can transform the entire look of your small bedroom. And plus, they look good and serve well as extra storage space!
2. Underbed Storage Boxes
If a wardrobe won’t fit into your small bedroom, storage boxes can be used in replacement of wardrobes. In my old bedroom, I used storage boxes for my school work and school binders and they were amazing! The boxes can be used for clothing, shoes, paperwork, academic supplies… the list is really endless!
3. Sofa Beds
Transform your room into a multi-use space with a sofa bed! I love using these because they prove to be an extremely comfortable sofa, and an even more comfortable bed. Also, they are not hard to use! Just add a store-away mattress topper to your list too. This is the perfect way to transform your room into the ultimate chill-out zone!
4. Ottoman Box
An Ottoman storage box is probably one of the chicest ways to store your belongings whilst keeping your room looking cute. Don’t worry about the sizes of these things! They can be the size of a foot stool or a small seat too!
5. 2-in-1 Dressing Table-Desk
My room is about 3 meters in length and 2 meters in width – yes, small. On top of that, I have a divan bed and have also managed to fit in a small dressing table-desk too. This one is similar to mine and is multi-functional because I can store items in it, do my schoolwork, and use a mirror!

If you’re in need of extra-extra storage space, get yourself an over door storage box. They’re out of the way and allow you to use up the space in your small room effectively!
Or alternatively,

If you’re not too fond of the over door storage boxes, then check out the over door hangers instead. I use over door hangers like this to hang my clothes, coats, scarves, dressing gowns, and many more!
8. Wardrobe Hanger Rail
This is a secret no one has to know about… it’s actually a towel hanger! But there are a multiple uses for this and one includes using it as an external clothes rail. Decorate it with your clothes for the week or your best clothes to get the best use out of it!
