Return To Storage Article Archive   Great Bedroom Storage Ideas By Lester Fong Storage is the most important element in a bedroom after the bed. Here're some bedroom storage ideas involving bedroom furniture to put essentials and objects where they can be easily reached and yet make best use of available space. Bedroom Storage Ideas for Clothing Different styles of clothing require different storage solutions. Here are some basic guidelines for general dimensions: * Long coats and dresses require a considerable amount of full-length hanging space, usually calculated at a maximum height of 5ft 3in (1.6 m); * T-shirt, jeans, sweaters, shirt, hats and handbags need either many shallow shelves or drawers measuring 1ft by 1ft 10in. Deep shelves tend to result in piles that fall over. * Wardrobe depths should be at least 2 ft (60 cm) to hold a full-sized coat hanger complete with clothes handing on it. * Wardrobes heights up till ceiling are recommended though you think you wont need the space. Its guaranteed that these will soon be filled with bulky, awkward things. The Wardrobe as Bedroom Storage Solution Free-standing wardrobes can be challenging to integrate. This is because they take up a large amount of space and are rarely designed to work with your particular clothing problems. The obvious alternative is a fitted wardrobe, or a combination of cupboards and wardrobe. You may break the wall of doors up with color, architectural details and carefully chosen knobs. You may also have fitted cupboards with staggered units of varying depths. The doors can be furnished with large and striking handles for a sense of drama. Alternative Bedroom Storage Ideas Although shelves, hanging rails and drawers are the most conventional forms of storage, there are other bedroom storage ideas, including boxes, baskets, free-standing rails, and even bags. And storage solutions do not necessarily have to be expensive - shelves divided into different section, for example, can provide a good basic system, as can different heights of hanging rail, perhaps screened from view by a curtain or blind. Storage space can extend beyond the confines of a single dedicated unit: * Beneath the bed - the space that can be used, either shallow containers or built in unit. * Under stairs, sloping roof or obscure corners - shelving units * Spare bedroom, corridor, hall - the space can be annexed to include a walk-in wardrobe or dressing area More information about home space-saving ideas available at http://www.unique-home-decor-ideas.com/home-storage-ideas.html About the Author: Lester is a regular contributor of home interior decoration tips at GoArticles.com.
