Spring is almost here, which means…time to get things clean and organized around the house. The thing about clutter is that it can really creep up on you and before you know it, every closet is filled to the brim with little to no sense of organization. Lacking good storage containers at home can not only waste precious space, but also take a toll on your mental health by causing you to feel stressed. When you’re ready to tackle the mess, these are the home organization essentials we swear by.
Baskets
Baskets are the perfect container to catch all your odds and ends while looking stylish in the process. There are so many different varieties and they all add functionality and ease to your home. Large baskets, like our Tenor Basket Set can be used to store everything from blankets and pillows to toys, shoes, and toilet paper. You can also use them as planters to give your home a boho or coastal feel. Big or small, they’re easy to move around and provide a lot of charm.
Statement Chest
Instead of trying to hide your storage, make it a focal point of the room. A statement chest, like the one pictured here can be used to draw attention to a work of art, serving almost like a frame. Adding some decorative accent pieces like a few personal books and sculpture can further enhance the look of the piece.
Tall Cabinets
Also known as pantry or utility cabinets, tall cabinets are highly functional pieces of furniture that can be used to store a variety of household items. These freestanding cabinets can be used as an addition to your pantry, a place for storing linens, or a home for your cleaning supplies and craft items.
Storage Bedside Tables
If you need more storage space in your room, consider a storage bedside table. They are designed to hold small objects like books, pens, stationery, a flashlight, and ear plugs. By keeping these essentials close at hand to your bed, you don’t have to get up to find them and you can store everything away immediately rather than having piles of things on your nightstand.
Decorative Trays
Trays are one of the best open organizers you’ll find. Large or small, you can place them on shelves, coffee tables, bedroom dressers and more to serve as the perfect catchall for everything from keys to jewelry. Use them to create a stylish vignette on your coffee table, or to serve food when you have guests over. A tray with a handle, like our Provence Tray can be carried from the kitchen to the patio for serving purposes, or you can use it as a decorative magazine holder.
The Well-Organized Home
In a well-organized home, you should be able to find whatever you need with just a quick glance. No home is perfect, but by making yours more organized, we promise it’ll save you space, time, and energy. From simple baskets and bins to clever hidden solutions like storage ottomans, there can be a place for everything if you design it that way. Start with some small organizers and work room by room. Before you know it, your home will be clutter-free.
