We were about to move into our dream home, which is one of the famous housing in Kolkata, in a day or two. The home which I and my husband have been dreaming of forever!

- Create Elegant Wall Displays
Get rid of tables here and there and make use of wall displays instead. In my new home, I have mounted all my showpieces and figurines on the walls. It instantly frees the space from clutter and also makes the wall look elegant and chic. You can try the DIY wall displays by attaching different size boxes on the wall and placing anything you like inside them. You can even keep books, lampshades, etc.
- Include Cupboard Doors Storage
The kitchen is often the most untidy space in a home. And if you have a small kitchen and wish to keep everything neat and clean, you can give your cupboard doors a makeover. For example, you can install hooks inside the doors of your cupboard and hang different types of kitchen utensils there. This will indeed save a lot of space. Also, it will make your kitchen look pretty. I have tried this in my new home.
- Storage Under the Beds
Beds are undeniably the biggest item in the bedrooms and they can be an awesome storage option too. I have bought beds with under-bed drawers. You can do the same and these are easily available in the market. Keep all the books, towels, bedding, and everything else you can think of under the beds. This will save a lot of space and also you will be away from clutters.
So, if you have been looking for ways to free up the spaces in your home, I hope my tips can be of great help to you. There are indeed a lot of ways of maximizing the space that we already have and sometimes we just need a little bit of inspiration and ideas.
