Anyone who lives in a small house will surely agree that the way to be comfortable is to get rid of huge furniture pieces. This is just an option, of course, since you can also declutter and replace the bigger pieces with more efficient pieces.
The Small Living Room
Majority of family bonding moments are spent inside this room. The number of activities that can happen there could also lead to the amount of clutter that could accumulate there. So, it’s time to downsize and declutter.
Begin by buying smaller furniture and trade them off over the huge couches and overstuffed chairs. You can also buy furniture pieces that come with built-in storage space. These versatile pieces can be an ottoman during most hours of the day and an extra storage unit during those times when you need a room for your extra stuff.
Say goodbye to bulky entertainment systems and find a sleeker and more slender console table. Make use of shadow box shelves for that uncluttered look where you can also display your framed family photos, knickknacks and collectibles.
The Small Kitchen
A small kitchen can pose certain difficulties. First, it can be difficult to cook meals there since the space is limited. When this is the case, think vertically in terms of storage. You can vertically hang pots and pants on the walls and even up to the ceiling.
The secret here is to use every available inch of space. Have a pegboard installed so that you won’t make multiple holes onto the walls.
Say goodbye to appliances as well as cookware that are just too bulky. If you don’t even use them that often, then let those pieces go.
Organize the drawers using dividers that will optimize the storage in the kitchen.
The Small Bathroom
Make the most out of your tiny bathroom by cleaning up. Use baskets that hang over the shower head. This can store your shampoo, washcloths, body wash and conditioner. Make the storage units attractive by having a cabinet with open shelves become their room. You can also check out some racks here..
Never overlook those unused nooks such as the back side of your bathroom door or those corners. Install hooks onto the door then hang robes and towels there.
The Small Bedroom
The bedroom is also a wonderful space to place your multipurpose furniture. A great option for families is the trundle bed that pulls out from underneath the bed. These also come in various finishes.

Make Organization a Reality
It’s time to switch out your winter clothing for the flimsier fabrics of spring. This is also the time to store those bulky blankets, pillows and comforters. Remove the air from each one of them by keeping them inside sealed vacuum bags.
You can also maximize closet space with a ventilated closet organizer that already includes a shoe rack. Make good use of your drawers; learn to fold blouses and undergarments in such a way that you have a clear view of each.
The Small Sunroom
Light-colored furniture is the way to go when it comes to decorating small sunrooms. The sunroom is an addition to a home so it serves as a porch as well as a second living room of sorts. The sunroom windows can make the room appear larger and open but if this room is just too narrow, then you can buy furniture that blends well to the floor and walls. Don’t go for the bulky types as these have a tendency to compromise what could have been available space.
A narrow sunroom could also appear bigger with the right kind of paint. Paint the ceiling and the walls with a single, light color. Dark accent color can only be used as an optical illusion, if you desire.
