Give Life to the Plain Walls and Doors
Who thought those dull, lifeless walls and doors could give a makeover to your small space if utilised correctly! For instance, you can get over-the-door pocket organisers, which can help you arrange things orderly without occupying any extra space. These can be in the form of hooks, hangers or racks fixed to the doors. If your everyday essentials remain scattered, giving you a hard time looking for them, this is the best solution.
Moreover, you can fix them along the walls to hide torn down paints or ugly stains. This can also be a unique showcase for your hats, bags and an ideal place to hand the keys. Hence, helping you flaunt your collection and preventing you from wasting time looking for them all around the house.
You can also convert the space into a wall closet. You will undoubtedly fall in love with the newly organised space that you created without spending any extra money.
Use Expandable Racks
What’s a better idea then clearing the clutter and converting the space into a storage solution? Using expandable racks can be excellent accommodation to the stuff lying around, adding charm to space. The best feature of these racks is that they come at a low price, hence not getting heavy on your pocket.
Besides, the best you can get out of an expandable rack is in and around the kitchen. You can stock snacks and other ready-to-eat items in it, or maybe, use it to hide them from the kids. Since it is expandable, it will fit in any small space and automatically make the house look organised. Besides, you can store your toiletries too.
Furthermore, you can put it in your bedroom near the dressing table to store your make up items, hair accessories and everyday essentials. Besides, a big sized rack can also work as a shoe organiser. This way, the things will remain within your reach without giving the space a chaotic look.

Wall-mounted desks and shelves are becoming a new functional piece of furniture in every household, no matter if its big or small. Besides, these not only cover the space adequately but also help you in decorating the house. Most importantly, you can get them in any size and materials like wood or glass, whatever suits the interiors of your house. You can use them to display your mini library, soft toys or other decorative items.
Put Stored and Stacked Away Crockery on Display
We spend a considerable amount of money buying antique crockery just to keep them packed in the box! Well, not anymore, because its time to put that collection on display and give that small vacant space a purpose. You can easily get a glass rack or a showcase with shelves installed in the wall and arrange your exquisite dishes in it. Imagine the reaction of your visitors when they will see a huge wall consisting only of beautiful designer crockery.
Furthermore, you will save some space in the kitchen cabinet since the crockery boxes will vacate the room for other essential things. Moreover, those boxes can be used to hide winter clothes, unused toys, and guest linens.

Convert the Small Space into the Entertainment Area
People who always wished to have their separate gaming room but couldn’t get that luxury can utilise the small space for this purpose. For instance, you can fix a TV on the wall along with brackets or shelves to support the DVD player, music system etc. If you do not want shelves, you can add drawers. It will make the room look spacious, and everything that was once scattered all around will find its new home.
Lastly, make the area look a little more dramatic by decorating the area with fairy lights and curtains matching other interiors. Moreover, covering the floor with a soft rug will give you a cozy space to read, study or play sitting on the floor.
