Many, many times I find myself trying to squeeze just a little extra space out of an already small room. I ran across these creative solutions and just had to share them.
A place for hanging pots built between two kitchen joists. The green paint on the back wall adds a pop of color.
A cozy bedroom alcove for sitting. The perfect substitute when there isn't room for a chair. Notice the built-in lighting and trim around the edges.
Shelving for books and display at the bottom of the steps. Flat pillows are stored under the window seat. What a clever idea!
Open shelving in the bathroom framed and painted to complement the wall color. The thin ledge underneath the shelving and running the length of the bathroom, is also ideal for keeping small frequently used items within easy reach.
Custom shelving built under the eaves in this small bedroom uses space that would otherwise be empty. Carrying the wall color to the shelves adds depth to the tiny room.
Enjoy your weekend!
