Having a cluttered home is associated with a whole host of negative impacts, including anxiety, depression, illness, insomnia, and even overeating. Conversely, having an organized, clutter-free space gives us a sense of calm and well-being. So choosing to de-clutter your home is likely to bring you more benefits than just looking nice.
Need some suggestions to get started? Here are our five favorite storage solutions to help you de-clutter.
1. Kitchen Island
Kitchens tend to attract a lot of clutter because of all our specialized appliances, utensils, pots, spices, and more. And when clutter accumulates on your counters, you lose needed working space. That’s why we love kitchen islands. Not only will you gain storage space, but you’ll gain additional counter space, too.
So whether you want to add a breakfast nook, need additional space for pots and pans, or could use an extra countertop to practice mise en place, a kitchen island is the perfect solution. Plus, when you opt for a custom kitchen island from Edgewood Cabinetry, you can organize even more with accessories like lazy Susans, drawer inserts, spice racks, and on-door storage racks.
2. Vanity
Bathrooms too often lack adequate storage space for all your supplies and appliances, which leads to surfaces overflowing with clutter. A new bathroom vanity can solve your storage problems.
Moreover, because custom build to fit your space, you can add more storage to your bathroom than you ever thought possible. Custom options like small appliance storage, makeup organizers, slide-out laundry bins, and custom-size drawers help you have a place for everything, and everything in its place.
3. Locker-Style Cabinets
Mudrooms may be the messiest rooms in our homes. Shoes, umbrellas, coats, and backpacks threaten to take over. Fortunately, it is possible to bring order to the chaos. And one of our favorite ways to do that is through locker-style cabinets.
Locker-style mudroom cabinets give each person in the home a place to store items. Best of all, you can customize them for exactly what you need. For instance, we offer hanging areas for coats and backpacks, bins for shoes, and shelving. You can even opt for a bench along the bottom!
4. Custom Closet Organizer
Is there ever enough closet space? It can be so difficult not to have cluttered closets. And as amusing as we may find watching characters on TV open a closet door only to be buried in an avalanche of junk, we don’t want the same experience in our homes. With that in mind, one of the best ways to de-clutter your closet is with a custom closet organizer.
Plus, you can add custom options like drawer organizers, shoe racks, file bins, and custom-sized hanging areas. With so many possibilities, you’ll have your closet de-cluttered in no time.
5. Custom Entertainment Center
Let’s face it, the entertainment centers sold in big box stores just do not have enough storage for all your equipment. So if you’re sick of seeing a jumble of cords snaking out from your entertainment center and having piles of remotes, controllers, and accessories cluttering your living room, a custom entertainment center is the way to go.
We custom-build to fit your space, so you’ll add tons of storage while gaining a gorgeous entertainment center that fits seamlessly into your home. And with custom options like cable organization and storage, media organizers, custom shelving, adjustable TV mounts, and accessory storage, you’ll be able to beautifully organize all your equipment and create an area to display your favorite photos or pieces of art!
