Diy Small Bedroom Storage Ideas – You may have limited space, but you have unlimited options. Reclaim your space (and your sanity) with these small closet storage ideas.
Your bedroom should be your sanctuary, even if it’s a small sanctuary. A small room can create a cozy atmosphere, but if your things are falling from every corner, it will feel like the walls are closing in on you. Reclaim your space (and your sanity) with these small closet storage ideas.

From your bed to that small closet, these storage solutions will help you rethink every part of your bedroom.
Creative Clothes Storage Solutions For Small Spaces
Even the smallest bedroom has a place to sleep. While sometimes you wish your bed could disappear (or be propped up against the wall in a Murphy bed), this gives you floor space, not storage space.
Since you need to sleep, you can’t replace the mattress with storage space. But you can use all the space above, below and around the bed.
For under-bed storage, choose a slatted bed frame. If your bedroom is so small that you don’t have room for anything other than a bed, look for a frame with lots of strings. For example, the Barstow storage bed with six drawers offers enough space to accommodate your clothes.
If you already have a bed frame and don’t have built-in drawers, you can still use the space under the bed for storage. One of our favorite organizing ideas is sliding storage boxes under your bed (or any furniture)!
Clever Ikea Buys Practically Made For Small Bedrooms
If you have a closet, save your money and buy the cheapest plastic storage containers you can find. No one will see the back of the skirt, so think of it as your little secret. If you have a platform bed, look for decorative baskets or wooden boxes so that the storage solution does not clash with your interior design.
If the storage under the bed is not enough to store your belongings, create more space above the bed. Look for a headboard with shelves and drawers, such as the Phoenix 10 Drawer Bed. It’s a stylish choice and the shelves give you flexibility: you can display books and jewelry, or even add baskets for hidden storage.
One of the most effective small room storage ideas is this: Place bookshelves everywhere. This includes your headboard.
Although your bed will block the lower shelves of the bookcase, you will still have more storage space than other furniture.

Depending on the size of your bed, you may need two or more matching books to create a headboard. For example, you need two 10″ bookcases in old nutmeg to match the width of a queen bed.
When we say libraries everywhere, we mean it. Wall-to-wall bookcases make your bedroom look like it’s built in. Find a library that you like, take as many as you can and put it on the wall. Or create a strange look using uneven books – it will not look beautiful, but it will look unique.
If you haven’t found the right book inspiration for your small room, try this idea for a (smaller!) size. Bedside tables often give you a place to pour a glass of water at night, but they don’t offer much more than that. Instead, place bookshelves on either side of the bed.
If you can’t fit a nightstand between your mattress and the wall, look for a corner bookcase like the Cappuccino 5-Tier Corner Bookcase. Corner bookshelves open to the room, so the diamond side of the book will stand between you and your glass when you reach for it in the middle of the night.

In a very small space, wall spaces should also be used well. Add extra storage with floating shelves above your wardrobe (or any furniture). Floating shelves are the perfect storage option that allows you to display books or hide items in baskets.
Each room has a rarely used space near the ceiling. Add a shelf about a foot below your ceiling that surrounds the rest of your room. It will be as stylish as crown molding and give you more space during the process. Note that there is a catch.
Since this shelf is there, it will not be easy to enter. So use it to store things like seasonal clothes (hidden in decorative baskets, of course!) that you need to buy once in a while.
Your closet doors have a huge impact on your ability to organize your bedroom. If you have enough room to open your bedroom doors, but you’re still living with sliding or accordion doors, it’s time for a change.
Best Bedroom Shelving Ideas For Storage In Bedroom
Hinged doors allow you to save space by using the back of the door for extra storage. Add hooks and use the space to hang bags, belts, shoes or clothing bags.
Closets may be the granddaddy of room storage, but the entertainment center is the biggest and baddest shelf of all. Although this furniture is often seen in the living room, we think it’s time to start in the bedroom.
An entertainment center is perfect for anyone who has a TV in their bedroom, but if you don’t like screens in your bedroom, you can use this piece for extra storage.
Make a DIY clothes rack by inserting a closet rod where your TV usually goes. Add necklaces, show off your favorite clothes, and eliminate your wardrobe woes.

Entertainment centers aren’t just for the living room, and storage benches aren’t just for the entryway. Look for hidden storage benches, such as a lift-up storage bench, or benches with drawers (perfect for storing shoes), such as the 2-drawer storage bench shown above. Place your bench at the foot of your bed or under your bedroom window, and you’ll relax in well-designed luxury.
If your small room has a lot of space at the foot of the bed, put a TV stand there. Most TV stands are wide without being tall, so they will fit perfectly at the foot of your bed. And although they are not very long, they have a lot of storage.
For example, this two-door combination in gray has two shelves and two shelves. Since you can’t use the closet to store the cable box, you can use it to organize your shoes. At just 18 inches tall, this console will be a bit shorter than your bed, so don’t worry about bumping it during the night. And its width (59 inches) is the size of a queen size bed.
Most TV consoles are the same or similar in shape and size, so this living room furniture is a perfect storage idea for the living room.
Small Bedroom Ideas For When Your Bed Takes Up The Whole Damn Room
You may have limited space, but you have unlimited options. Any part of the bedroom you have can provide extra storage. If you’re struggling to find enough space in a small room, look around. When you see a piece that doesn’t take much weight, swap it for an option with more storage space.
Swap small nightstands for large books. Choose a bed frame with built-in storage. And consider swapping out traditional furniture for a storage system like an entertainment center. With a few smart upgrades, your small room will feel more spacious in no time. Organizing a small room can be a headache. Having everything in a small space can quickly become confusing!
Today, I want to share some ways to organize a small room. These planners will make your life easier and hopefully inspire you.
Beds take up a lot of space in our bedrooms, so save by tucking them under the bed rails. Here is a great under the bed shoe drawer with wheels that you can use.
Genius Small Space Storage & Organization Ideas That Work
You can use a drawer like this to store more than just shoes. This is a great place to store sheets, towels, blankets, and maybe other things you don’t use every day.
It is important to use vertical space in the closet to store many things. As you can see in the photo above, I have a pretty empty closet underneath the shirts and sweaters.
I have plastic storage boxes and put my labels on them. Now, it’s easy to take the box, take the socks out and put them back in. With labels, there is no confusion!
The great thing about this is that you can print out the labels and just stick them together with a glue stick. No need for special sticker paper to print! You can use them in baskets
