Here are some tips that were discussed during the TV segment:
- Stretch a bookcase over a doorway - use every inch to maximize storage.
- Banquette seating with under seat drawer storage is not only useful as a spot to take off your shoes in a mudroom but the storage underneath can be useful for recycling boxes, boot storage, or sports equipment.
- Add shelves to create a bookcase to make a nook, too small to place furniture in, useful.
- Large baskets are useful for seasonal storage such as mitts and scarves especially in the upper portion portion of tall cabinetry built to the ceiling.
- Use left over retails boxes or card boxes to organize your desk drawer. Pens can easily be separated from fasteners and other odd and ends.
- Coloured or patterned boxes add interest to built-ins that are otherwise neutral.
- Use all the same storage containers like Mason jars, glass baby food jars or clear plastic containers with labels to order pantry or workshop items.
- Recycle tissue boxes for plastic bags.
