I also don't have storage so we turned a hallway that only had a window at the end of it, i turned it into a closet :) i put those plastic shelves against the wall (but pete can put wook shelves somewhere)the one thing that has helped us is the fact that in our old house some of our ceilings are really tall so i make jon put shelving all the way to the top cuz the closets are not big enough :) with your sheets can you put them in a cute basket? good luck!<br />I have had alot of luck with lowes in there sale racks....we got a ton of wooden storage cupboards for really cheap!Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11479197546927104518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1451886064765458672.post-2640175024101529872010-11-10T18:15:32.764-06:002010-11-10T18:15:32.764-06:00How about a junk drawer?

I do have a few under-bed containers, but for some reason our beds are really low (don't know if it's fixable) and they don't fit unless you really shove them under! :SJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09192174403953062951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1451886064765458672.post-18938917896624315942010-11-10T14:51:18.098-06:002010-11-10T14:51:18.098-06:00I was thinking under the bed too, and if you don&#...I was thinking under the bed too, and if you don't want to buy totes, use ziplock bags.

I have found that a good storage area when space is limited is under the bed. you could get totes that fit and hold bedding or you could have that crafty hubby make some pull outs for under the bed. Jess and I are really trying to declutter our lives and it is so hard. I have so much scrapbooking/sewing/craft stuff with no where to put it. And our kitchen is disatourous but with out $$$$ we are stuck. Please share your ideas as they come!Jess, Sam, Elyse & Hadley Micklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04717609681052287260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1451886064765458672.post-41824151578999674062010-11-10T11:19:32.377-06:002010-11-10T11:19:32.377-06:00I have patterns we will look at them at thanksgivi...I have patterns we will look at them at thanksgiving. Can you hide storage behing the door? I'm think like the book shelves you liked. Maybe use a few thin wood planks, scrap from the shop? Maybe 2 inches tall and 1/2 inch think and as wide as you need. Make them fit nice and thight between the corners of the wall and maybe a door jam. Then you can hang bedding over them sort of like a quilt hanger? (Sorry if that sounds half baked just thought of it). Try googling "finding free storage in your home". Check Craigslist for free furniture that is in working shape, you can always repaint if it is ugly.Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02676265365737932683noreply@blogger.com
